  • Publication number: 20230177586
    Abstract: Skin condition scanning allows one to more easily find products that match the condition of their skin. Based on a skin condition scan, a person can view products appropriate for their skin condition such as skin type, oiliness or oil balance, fine lines or wrinkles, or hydration, of a combination. A scanning device is used to scan two or more locations of a person's skin. For example, three different locations of the face can be scanned, such as the forehead and cheek and near the eyes. The scan determines a skin condition result for the person's skin.

  • Publication number: 20230116487
    Abstract: Various techniques predict body complexion characteristics at least by predicting one or more objects in a plurality of first inputs via executing an object extractor. These techniques receive and classify the one or more objects into one or more respective classes, where a class of the one or more respective classes corresponds to a color index or value in a L*A*B* color space or a Lch color space. A body complexion index or value may be predicted for the at least one subject area based at least in part upon the class, where the body complexion index or value represents a body complexion characteristic of the at least one subject area. Textual and graphical information pertaining to the body complexion index or value may then be presented in a user interface of the mobile computing device that captured at least some of the plurality of first inputs.

  • Publication number: 20230115395
    Abstract: Scanning a person’s skin allows one to more easily find products that match their skin tone. Cosmetic products are organized or classified using a three-dimensional skin tone color space. A skin scan determines a person’s skin tone in the same skin tone color space. This allows customers to determine which products are appropriate for their skin tone that they can purchase form a retailer. A scanning device is used to scan one or more locations of a person’s skin to obtain a skin tone identifier. For example, two different locations of a person’s face can be scanned, such as the forehead and cheek. There may be an additional third scan. The scan determines a skin tone result in the skin tone color space.

  • Publication number: 20230074782
    Abstract: Scanning a person’s skin allows one to more easily find products that match their skin tone and skin condition. A skin scan can assist one to determine what products are appropriate for them and then purchase them from a retailer. A scanning device is used to scan one or more locations of a person’s skin. For example, two different locations of a person’s face can be scanned, such as the forehead and cheek. An additional third scan may be near the person’s eyes. The scan determines skin tone and skin condition results for the person’s skin. These results can be used to determine and present a listing of products that are appropriate for the person’s skin tone and skin condition.
