Skin Tone Scanning and Cosmetics in 3D Skin Tone Color Space

Resumen de: US20260262997A1

0000 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.
