Abstract

A system is provided that executes a contest that includes displaying an image of a face of a model, among a plurality of models, to a user; receive inputs from the user to adjust a color of a blended cosmetic product to be applied to the face of the model; display the model with the adjusted color selected by the user; receive the image of the face of the model with the adjusted color as an entry of the user; display the entry of the user to a plurality of users and provide the plurality of users an option submit a vote on the entry of the users and entries of other users; output a result of a contest based on an entry receiving a highest number of votes. The system is further configured to output one or more colors of the blended cosmetic product included in the highest vote receiving entries corresponding to an extracted model as a recommendation to a user.

Claims (23)

1. A system comprising:

processing circuitry configured to:

execute a contest that includes displaying an image of a face of a model, among a plurality of models, to a first user;

receive inputs from the first user via a user interface to adjust a color of a blended cosmetic product to be applied to the face of the model;

receive further inputs from the first user via the user interface to select a virtual cosmetic tool from a set of available virtual cosmetic tools and to draw a representation of the blended cosmetic product on the face of the model using the selected virtual cosmetic tool;

display the model with the adjusted color selected by the first user;

receive the image of the face of the model with the adjusted color as an entry of the first user;

display the entry of the first user to a plurality of users and provide the plurality of users an option to submit a vote on the entry of the first user and entries of other users;

output a result of the contest based on an entry receiving a highest number of votes;

receive a self-taken image of a second user;

analyze features of the second user based on the image;

extract a model among the plurality of models that includes features which match the analyzed features of the second user;

determine entries in the contest in which one or more users selected a color of the blended cosmetic product to be applied to the face of the extracted model;

determine the highest vote receiving entries corresponding to the extracted model;

output one or more colors of the blended cosmetic product included in the highest vote receiving entries corresponding to the extracted model as a recommendation to the second user;

determine a plurality of color ingredients used for the highest vote receiving entries corresponding to the extracted model, wherein the color ingredients correspond to cartridges used in a dispensing device to produce the blended cosmetic product; and

transmit an instruction to a manufacturing facility of the cartridges to create a grouped package of cartridges for the determined plurality of color ingredients.

2. The system according to claim 1 , wherein the inputs from the first user to adjust the color of the blended cosmetic product are received on a displayed color adjustment interface of the user interface.

3. The system according claim 2 , wherein the displayed color adjustment interface is further configured to select a color for the dispensing device to use when producing the blended cosmetic product.

4. The system according to claim 1 , further comprising displaying a link for purchasing the blended cosmetic product.

5. The system according to claim 1 , wherein the processing circuitry is further configured to display selectable regions of a face of the model for the user to select to adjust the color of the blended cosmetic product.

6. The system according to claim 5 , wherein the selectable regions include at least lips, eyes, and cheeks of the model.

7. The system according to claim 1 , wherein the processing circuitry is further configured to display a color used for the blended cosmetic product for any currently displayed entries among the entries submitted by the first user and the other users.
