  • Publication number: 20200275761
    Abstract: The privation of protection towards the individual hijab while applying makeup and other cosmetic products, prevents the makeup from spreading onto the hijab, and staining. The inspiration behind the Hijab makeup protector which will be referred to as The ModestBeauty Protector originated from viewing countless beauty influencers' social media profiles whom are hijab wearers. The feather weight, breathable, white mesh, non-woven, and hypoallergenic beauty tool is to be placed around the users face [see FIG. 6] by simply peeling off the covering shown in [See FIG. 4] exposing the adhesive tape, and directly securing to hijab. The breathable material absorbs the makeup, which avoids staining on Hijab due the maximum protection.

    Abstract: Provided is an apparatus for preparing a coffee beverage portion from a volume of water and a mass of coffee beans. The apparatus comprises a brewing chamber for containing the ground coffee. The chamber admits water via an inlet. The water contacts the ground coffee contained within the chamber, and exits the chamber via an outlet. A ground coffee supplier dispenses coffee beans to the chamber, and a water supply supplies water to the chamber. A controller controls the ground coffee supplier and the water supply such that the coffee beverage portion is brewed in a plurality of brewing steps. Each brewing step comprises passing a fraction of the water volume through the chamber so as to contact a further fraction of the coffee beans mass during a time period equal to the desired brewing time. Further provided is a method of preparing a coffee beverage portion.
