DESCRIPTION:
BRIEF SUMMARY
The invention relates to a process for mixing cosmetic components in which the components are put into a container pot of a cosmetics container and the container pot is closed with a closure wall and the cosmetic components are rolled around in the container pot. The invention relates further to a cosmetics container that is designed for the sale of a mixture of cosmetic components for personal use and that has a container pot, which has a filling and removal opening for holding the cosmetic components as well as a container cap and a closure wall arranged for the filling and removal opening, whereby the hand-operated mixing device for mixing the cosmetic components is provided on the container cap.
In the area of cosmetics, it is commonly known that the optimal care of the skin by means of a skin creme is only attained when the skin creme is adapted as closely as possible to the skin type and condition. To adjust to this demand, several companies offer lines of skin creme products where the individual products are differentiated from each other by their adaptation to the different types and conditions of the skin. The manufacture and marketing of such a product line is, however, only possible when the number of individual products within a product line is relatively small. For this reason, an optimally working skin creme is not available for every type of skin.
To avoid this problem, a process is suggested in DE-PS 41 10 299 wherein the skin creme is prepared specifically for the client immediately before the purchase by the end consumer at the store. For this purpose, the different cosmetic active agent components are stored separately in a series of containers. When the characteristic values of the skin of the person who will use the creme are known--the determination of the characteristic values may be provided by the buyer, or may have been provided earlier--the creme is prepared with the cosmetic components available following a pre-existing scheme or according to the process values established by the sales personnel. This is done each time by dosing the measured amounts in a cosmetic container for the use of the individual. By using this process, it is possible to adapt the skin creme optimally to each skin type and condition.
For the preparation of the skin creme, it is important that the cosmetic components added one by one into the cosmetic container be mixed in the most homogeneous distribution possible. In DE-PS 41 10 299, a cosmetics container is suggested for this purpose, which has, as is customary, a container pot for holding the cosmetic components and a screwable container cap. Additionally, the mixing means is presented in the form of one or more stirring paddles, reaching from an intermediate cap into the container pot. The cosmetic components in the container pot are mixed together by turning the intermediate cap, which causes the stirring paddles to turn.
However, a disadvantage of this cosmetics container is that an optimal mixing of the cosmetic components is not always possible with the help of the stirring paddle or paddles. This directly affects the effectiveness of the amount of creme produced each time.
Apart from this, the construction of the known cosmetics container is costly. The handling is also awkward because, with each removal of creme, the intermediate cap with the stirring paddles must be removed and stored so that the remaining skin creme adhering to the stirring paddle or paddles does not come into contact with the deposit or other objects.
In DE-C-866 084, a cosmetic container is described that has an outer container wall which is cylindrical and is open at the bottom. The opening on the bottom is closed off via a movable plate provided on the inside. On the top, the opening of the cosmetic container is covered with a disc provided with a small outlet opening. A cap is arranged on top of this disc. In the inner space of the cosmetics container, a container pot is installed that has a flexible bag with its outer edge stretched around a ring disc. The ring disc has a
