The invention concerns a make-up or coloring method comprising steps which consist in imaging at least one part of the human body to be treated, analysing local characteristics of said part, and applying treatment products of said part based on said local characteristics.

System and method for applying a cosmetic substance

An apparatus designed to examine a surface includes a polarization analyser element, or analyser, placed in the path of a light beam reflected by the surface, a device configured to take digital images and placed in the path of the beam reflected by the surface downstream of the analyser, and a processing unit capable of calculating the color and the intensity of a plurality of pixels of at least one image.

Apparatus and process for examining a surface

A system comprising a plurality of comparison samples each having a reflectance spectrum and being configured to substantially simulate a color of a keratinous element having a reflectance system. The reflectance spectrum of each comparison sample may be substantially similar to the reflectance spectrum of a respective keratinous element such that the comparison sample and the keratinous element appear to an observer to have substantially the same color under at least two differing illuminants.

Comparison sample for simulating the color of keratinous elements, and related methods

The apparatus for assistance in makeup includes a measurement unit for measuring local phenomena of light interaction with a zone to be made up and/or treated; a database relating to the BRDF of various cosmetic and/or care products; a selector unit enabling a product to be selected; a calculation unit for calculating the resulting BRDF to the zone virtually made up or treated with the product, on the basis of measurement previously taken and on the basis of information taken from the database and relating to the BRDF of the selected makeup product; and a display unit for displaying the zone virtually made up or treated in this way as a result of the previously calculated resulting BRFD.

Apparatus for assisting makeup and an assembly constituted by such apparatus and apparatus for delivering makeup having a predetermined BRDF as selected by the apparatus for assisting makeup

A system comprising a plurality of comparison samples configured to substantially simulate the appearance of a keratinous element. Each comparison sample may be configured to substantially simulate both a color and an appearance characteristic other than color of the keratinous element.
