Abstract

A beauty treating device is provided with a device body 1 in which a motor 3 having an eccentric rotor 2 built as a vibration generating section. A beauty treating chip 10 is fixed to a leading end of the device body 1 to conduct vibration from the vibration generating section. The beauty treating chip 10 is kept vibrating and contacted to the skin surface of a user so to penetrate the beauty treating agent into the skin of the user. The beauty treating chip 10 has a porous base material, and the beauty treating agent is impregnated and kept in the porous base material. For the beauty treating chip, a chip shaped whetstone which is formed of ceramics abrasive grains having a particle size in a range of #80 to #800 can also be applied.

Claims

1. A beauty treating device, comprising:

a device body;

a vibration generating section which is built in the device body; and

a beauty treating chip, to which vibration is conducted from the vibration generating section, which is contacted to a surface of skin to be undergone beauty treatment to apply the vibration to it, and which has a porous base material and a beauty treating agent impregnated into the porous base material.

2. The beauty treating device according to claim 1, wherein the beauty treating agent contains at least one kind selected from the group consisting of a beauty component, a cosmetic component and a skin protecting component.

3. The beauty treating device according to claim 2, wherein the beauty treating agent further contains at least one kind selected from fragrances and pigments.

4. The beauty treating device according to claim 1, wherein the porous base material is formed of porous ceramics, porous resin or porous rubber.

5. The beauty treating device according to claim 1, wherein the porous base material is formed of a porous aggregate or porous sintered body of a ceramics material.

6. The beauty treating device according to claim 1, wherein the vibration generating section applies mainly reciprocating vibration to the beauty treating chip.

7. The beauty treating device according to claim 1, further comprising a second beauty treating chip for removing dirt adhered to the surface of skin and/or a portion of aged skin.

8. The beauty treating device according to claim 7, wherein the second beauty treating chip is provided with abrasive grains having a grain size in a range of #80 to #800 according to JIS R6001.

9. The beauty treating device according to claim 8, wherein the second beauty treating chip has the abrasive grains and a binder for binding the abrasive grains in such a way that the abrasive grains retain the chip shape.

10. A beauty treating device, comprising:

a device body;

a vibration generating section which is built in the device body; and

a beauty treating chip, to which vibration is conducted from the vibration generating section, which is contacted to a surface of skin to be undergone a beauty treatment to apply the vibration to it, and which is provided with abrasive grains having a grain size in a range of #80 to #800 according to JIS R6001.

11. The beauty treating device according to claim 10, wherein the abrasive grains have a grain size in a range of #240 to #800.

12. The beauty treating device according to claim 10, wherein the beauty treating chip has the abrasive grains and a binder for binding the abrasive grains in such a way that the abrasive grains retain the chip shape.

13. The beauty treating device according to claim 10, wherein the abrasive grains are ceramics abrasive grains.

14. The beauty treating device according to claim 13, wherein the ceramics abrasive grains are at least one kind selected from the group consisting of alumina abrasive grains, zirconia abrasive grains, magnesia abrasive grains and spinel abrasive grains.

15. The beauty treating device according to claim 13, wherein the ceramics abrasive grains are treated with acid.

16. The beauty treating device according to claim 10, wherein the vibration generating section applies mainly reciprocating vibration to the beauty treating chip.

17. The beauty treating device according to claim 16, wherein the vibration generating section vibrates the beauty treating chip at a frequency in a range of 500 to 20000 cycles/min.

18. The beauty treating device according to claim 16, wherein the vibration generating section vibrates the beauty treating chip at an amplitude of vibration in a range of 0.01 to 100 μ

m.

19. The beauty treating device according to claim 10, wherein the beauty treating chip is contacted to the surface of skin to remove dirt adhered to the surface of skin and/or a portion of aged skin.

20. A beauty treating device, comprising:

a device body;

a vibration generating section which is built in the device body; and

a beauty treating chip to which vibration is conducted from the vibration generating section, which is contacted to the surface of skin to be undergone a beauty treatment to apply the vibration to it, and which has alumina abrasive grains.

21. The beauty treating device according to claim 20, wherein the beauty treating chip has the alumina abrasive grains and a binder for binding the alumina abrasive grains in such a way that the alumina abrasive grains retain the chip shape.

22. A beauty treating chip for penetrating a beauty treating agent into body to contact a surface of skin of the body, comprising:

a porous base material; and
