Abstract

A skin beautification cosmetic system comprising an iontophoresis device, an infrared (including far infrared) generator, an ultrasonic vibrator, and a cosmetic composition is disclosed. The system ensures effective action of moisturizing and whitening cosmetics without causing any problem in the skin. By specifying the type of cosmetic to be used, the system can ensure a more effective beautification action, can improve dry skin and aging skin which adversely affect the female skin, and can decompose and remove melanin. Moisturizing and/or whitening cosmetic components such as hydrophilic gel and ultrafine gel are applied to the face or skin or impregnated in a skin contact member section, following which iontophoresis high frequency vibration is applied to the face or skin for a prescribed period of time using an ultrasonic vibrator 3 with built-in high ionization iontophoresis device 2 and infrared generator 9.

Claims

1. A skin beautification cosmetic system comprising an ultrasonic vibrator using high frequency, an iontophoresis device, and a cosmetic additive.

2. The skin beautification cosmetic system according to claim 1, wherein the ultrasonic vibrator contains a high ionization iontophoresis device.

3. The skin beautification cosmetic system according to claim 1, wherein the cosmetic additive comprises a moisturizing cosmetic additive and/or a whitening cosmetic additive.

4. The skin beautification cosmetic system according to claim 1, wherein the cosmetic additive comprises a moisturizing cosmetic additive selected from the group consisting of hyaluronic acid, collagen, placental extract, sake lees extract and/or deep seawater sake lees extract, lactic acid, and other natural moisturizing agents.

5. The skin beautification cosmetic system according to claim 1, wherein a hydroquinone, vitamin C derivative, placental extract, or the like is added as a whitening cosmetic additive.

6. The skin beautification cosmetic system according to claim 1, wherein the frequency of the ultrasonic vibrator is in a range of 5-6 MHz.

7. The skin beautification cosmetic system according to claim 1, wherein the cosmetic additive is an ionizable antioxidative/antityrosinase cosmetic composition.

8. The skin beautification cosmetic system according to claim 1, wherein the cosmetic additive is a hydrophilic gel.

9. The skin beautification cosmetic system according to claim 1, wherein the cosmetic additive is an ultrafine particle gel.

10. The skin beautification cosmetic system according to claim 1, comprising an iontophoresis device for high ionization, an ultrasonic vibrator with a frequency of 5-6 MHz, and a hydrophilic gel and/or ultrafine particle gel as a cosmetic additive.

11. The skin beautification cosmetic system according to claim 1, comprising an iontophoresis device for high ionization, infrared (including far-infrared) generator, an ultrasonic vibrator with a frequency of 5-6 MHz, and a hydrophilic gel and/or ultrafine particle gel as a cosmetic additive.

12. The skin beautification cosmetic system according to claim 1, wherein the skin beautification effect is obtained by metabolism and fat combustion which are derived from skin frictional heat and an increase in basic metabolism due to ultrasonic vibration.

13. The skin beautification cosmetic system according to claim 1, wherein the ultrasonic vibrator comprises a component for storing and leaching the cosmetic additive.

14. An ultrasonic facial stimulator comprising an ultrasonic vibrator having a high ionization iontophoresis device and an infrared or far-infrared generator.

15. The skin beautification cosmetic system according to claim 14, wherein the frequency of the ultrasonic facial stimulator is in a range of 5-6 MHz.
