Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a simple nail manicure method.

Conventional manicure tools use an enamel solution made by mixing paint in a volatile organic solvent, and by applying this solution to the nail surface with a small brush, the solvent evaporates and sticks to the nail surface. However, such coating methods have various problems as described below.

In other words, it is extremely troublesome to apply a solution to the surface of a small nail so that it does not protrude into the skin, and requires a certain degree of skill to achieve a clean finish.
The applied nail polish layer has problems with its durability, so it may peel off partially due to daily housework such as cooking or washing, and it is cumbersome to have to reapply it each time. To remove the nail polish layer, you must use a volatile organic solvent such as nail polish remover, and if you want to change the color tone of the previously applied nail polish layer, remove the nail polish layer that has already been applied. Not only is it extremely troublesome to have to apply something else, but also harmful volatile components of organic solvents are inhaled both when applying and removing.
Therefore, there is a risk of harm to health, and it also has an adverse effect on the nails and skin to which it is directly applied.

Therefore, the present invention aims to provide a simple manicure method that can solve all of the above problems.
The gist is the first step of adhering a flexible adhesive tape made of a transparent or translucent material to the entire surface of the nail to be manicured and molding the outline of the nail onto the adhesive sheet; A second step in which the adhesive sheet is superposed on the manicure layer forming sheet and the manicure layer forming sheet is cut out along the shape line.
and a third step of adhering or adhering a manicure layer forming sheet cut out in a desired nail shape to the nail surface.

Examples of the present invention will be described in detail below.

<First Example> A case where a manicure layer is formed within the range of the surface of the nail.

As shown in Figures 1 and 2, one side (back side) is a sheet with an adhesive layer 1 (commercially available cellophane tape, etc.), and the other side (front side) can be written on with a pencil, ballpoint pen, etc. A mold-making adhesive sheet A made of a transparent or semi-transparent flexible material and having a bare surface 2 is cut into a size slightly larger than the surface area of the finger intended for mold-making, and then cut into a shape as shown in Fig. 3. Paste it on the entire surface of the nail as shown. Next, use your other fingertips to press and adhere the necessary parts with your fingertips, toes, or a small tool with a tapered tip like a pen so that the entire surface of the nail is well adhered. In this case, in particular, the boundary 3 between the nail and the skin of the fingertip is carefully pressed to bring it into close contact with the nail surface. Next, using a pencil, ballpoint pen, etc. 4, mark the place where there is a step with the skin along this boundary line along the step.

Next, firmly press the adhesive sheet A for molding on the tip of the nail, and then use a pencil, ballpoint pen, etc. to draw along the shape of the tip of the nail from the surface of the transparent or translucent adhesive sheet A for molding. Then, by peeling off the mold-making adhesive sheet A from the fingertip, a mold-making adhesive sheet A having a desired nail-shaped figure 5 as shown in FIG. 3C is obtained.

Next, this mold-making adhesive sheet A is stacked on the surface of the manicure layer-forming sheet B and applied by pressing lightly. Next, the nail polish layer forming sheet B shown in FIGS. 4 and 5 will be explained. The surface 6 of this manicure layer forming sheet B exhibits the same color tone and gloss as when a nail polish agent is applied to the surface of the nail. Therefore, this sheet B is glossy in red, pink or other colors, and has an adhesive layer 7 on the back side. It's like commercially available vinyl tape. Alternatively, Sumitomo 3M Co., Ltd.'s product name Scotchcal Film (signboard series, general color series, fluorescent color series, etc.) can also be used as the nail polish layer forming sheet B according to the present invention, which has adhesive properties.
It could be used as is due to its durability and color. Although there are many other commercially available products such as transparent materials and tapes in various colors that can be used practically, it is also possible to develop a sheet that is more suitable for the purpose as the manicure layer forming sheet B according to the present invention. it is conceivable that.

On the surface of this manicure layer forming sheet B, as shown in FIG. 6, a nail-shaped pattern 5 is pasted, and then it is cut along this nail-shaped pattern 5 with scissors, a knife, or the like. Then, a cut piece B' of the manicure layer forming sheet B that covers the nail surface with the desired color and gloss is obtained.

This is applied to the nail surface, and the nail surface with a great manicure effect can be obtained by the simple operation described above. The following method is effective for performing this operation more reliably and easily.

Once the desired nail-shaped figure 5 has been obtained on the mold-making adhesive sheet A, the entire surface may be attached to the manicure layer forming sheet B side, but in this case, after cutting along the nail-shaped figure 5. It is somewhat difficult to peel off both the mold-making adhesive sheet A and the manicure layer forming sheet B from the application surface. Of course, it is possible to remove both with a flat metal object, but you can easily achieve your goal by doing the following. First, once the nail-shaped figure 5 is obtained on the mold-making adhesive sheet A, a part of it is folded to the back side so that its tip crosses a part of the nail-shaped figure 5, as shown in FIG. . In this way, even after pasting and cutting the nail polish layer forming sheet B in five different nail-shaped shapes, both can be easily peeled off.

Back side of manicure material The back side of the manicure layer forming sheet B is the back side of the sheet to which the highly adhesive adhesive layer 7 is attached. After pasting it on the front surface, it is cut into five claw-shaped shapes, but at this time, it is difficult to cut along the claw-shaped shapes 5 with scissors or the like when the adhesive layer 7 on the back side is exposed. Since chips and the like may adhere, it is convenient to attach a release paper 8 to the back side of the adhesive layer 7 in advance, as shown in FIG. 5. The release paper 8 is also cut at the same time, and it is desirable that the release paper 8 be made of a material that lightly adheres to the adhesive layer 7 on the back side of the nail polish layer forming sheet B and can be easily peeled off. or,
Resistant to slight deformation like paper (more than thin rubber sheets, vinyl sheets, saran sheets, etc.)
A sheet with resistance properties is easy to cut with scissors, and is also easy to peel off.

In addition, since the back side of the nail polish layer forming sheet B is highly adhesive, if the release paper 8 on the back side is not paper-like but a general poly film, etc., the nail-shaped pattern 5 may be
It is troublesome to peel it off after cutting it.
At this time, as shown in Fig. 8, the release paper 8 is not attached all over the surface like a commercially available emergency plaster (for example, Kizu Aid), but it is attached at a certain interval. By putting out an extra piece of release paper 8 and placing the border so that it covers the claw-shaped figure 5, it becomes easy to peel off the release paper 8 after cutting into the desired claw shape. In addition, in order to easily peel off the release paper 8 immediately before use, for example, a paper made by Sumitomo 3M Ltd.
By using a specially processed material with a smooth surface, such as the backing material of various color film sheets under the trade name Scotchcal Film, it can be easily peeled off. A case has been described in which the adhesive layer 7 is previously attached to the nail polish layer forming sheet B as described above. This has the advantage of being easy to use. However, it is of course possible to apply the manicure layer forming sheet B to the surface of one's nails using a commercially available adhesive in accordance with the above procedure. If a portion of the tip comes off during housework or bathing, it can be repaired with adhesive.

<Second Example> ◎Another example of the method for making a nail-shaped figure in the first example. (Part 1) First, as shown in FIG. 9, mark the border 3 on the surface of your nail with a pencil or the like 4, just as you would on regular paper. In this case, the pencil you use can be H, HB, B, 2B, even harder or softer. All can be clearly transferred onto one surface of the adhesive layer.
The obtained nail-shaped pattern 5 was attached to the surface of the nail polish layer forming sheet B in the same manner as in the first embodiment, and the cutting and other operations were exactly the same.

In this method, the transfer is more accurate compared to the mold-making method in the first embodiment, in which a tape with an adhesive surface is first crimped and the tape surface is marked with a pencil or the like along the boundary 3, and the transfer is more accurate. As shown in Figure 10, by simply rubbing the corner of the toe with the side of the black lead of a pencil, you can clearly draw a black line on the tip of the toe. It is more accurate than the method of filling in from above. However, the drawback is that the nails get dirty, but since this is just fine particles of powder attached, it can be wiped off with cloth or paper.

The material used at this time is not limited to pencils, but also crayons, colored pencils, and other materials that can be used to write on the nail surface.If the trace you have written can be transferred to the surface of the adhesive layer 1, chalk, talc stick, or other writing materials may be used instead. In short, it only needs to have excellent characteristics such as being easy to remove from the nail surface after use and being easy to write accurately.

Therefore, according to this method, the surface of the mold-making adhesive sheet A does not necessarily need to be plain.

◎Another example of the method for making a nail-shaped figure in the first embodiment (Part 2) In order to make a nail impression on the adhesive tape A attached to the nail surface for making a nail, the nail impression is shown in Fig. 16. Place carbon paper 12 as shown, place another sheet 13 on top of it, trace the outline of the nail with a pencil, and adhere the outline of the nail to the nail surface on side A of the mold-making adhesive sheet. It is to be transcribed into.

Alternatively, instead of the carbon paper 12, a pressure-sensitive agent may be placed in the same manner as a pressure-sensitive paper to transfer the nail pattern onto the sheet.

<Third Example> A case where a manicure layer is formed longer than the actual nail to make the nail appear longer.

A time-consuming yet time-consuming method to make nails look longer has already been achieved, which involves attaching artificial nails to one's own toes using superglue, smoothing them, and applying nail polish.

In this embodiment, as described in the first embodiment, the manicure layer forming sheet B is attached to the nail surface. In particular, in order to make the nails look longer, the manicure layer is made longer than the nail itself in the direction of the toes. The layer forming sheet B is cut and molded. That is, as in the first embodiment, in order to take a mold of one's own nail, as shown in FIG. After making the boundary part 3 clear, draw a boundary line on this surface with a pencil or the like 4, then draw the shape of the toe shape 9 that you want to make longer, and then peel off this mold-making adhesive sheet A. . Next, the obtained figure 5' is pasted on the surface of the nail polish layer forming sheet B, and the cut piece B'' formed by cutting this is pasted on the nail surface with the adhesive layer 7 pasted on the back side. wear.

In this way, the effect of long nails can be easily obtained as shown in FIG.

As the material for the manicure layer forming sheet B in this embodiment, a sheet such as a soft, ultra-thin vinyl sheet as in the first embodiment cannot be used. Of course, in this case, since the back of the part beyond the tip of the toe is sticky, another backing sheet 10 is attached in advance. If this backing sheet 10 is pasted close to the tip of one's toe when the nail mold is taken in advance, this purpose can be achieved at the same time when cutting and molding the cut piece B''.

<Fourth Example> Another example of the manicure layer forming sheet in the third example.

In advance, manicure layer forming sheets B of 10 or more types, similar to those shown in FIG. 14, in large and small sizes and approximately semi-cylindrical in shape are manufactured. An adhesive layer 7 is adhered to the inner surface of this sheet in the same manner as the planar nail polish layer forming sheet B. Other specifications are also the same as those of the planar nail polish layer forming sheet B.

Here, a manicure effect may be given to this approximately semi-cylindrical manicure layer forming sheet B itself, or a sheet having a manicure effect may be pasted on this, thus obtaining long nails and applying this to the entire surface of one's nails. Paste it on.

Commercially available artificial nails differ from the present invention because only a small amount is glued to the very tip of one's own toes.

Next, in order to take a mold of one's own nail, the present invention involves using a mold-making adhesive sheet A, applying pressure to the entire surface of the nail, and marking the boundary part 3 of the nail with a pencil or the like 4 to obtain a nail shape figure 5. This is a feature of the template 1, as shown in Figure 15 A and B, using an appropriate plate based on this figure.
1, 11', from the second time onwards, simply trace the inner or outer periphery of the templates 11, 11' onto side A of the mold-making adhesive sheet with a pencil or the like to create the desired nail-shaped figure 5. is obtained.

The material for the manicure layer forming sheet B in the first and second embodiments is preferably a soft material, but if the material is easily deformed by heat or softened by chemicals, it will evaporate and become hard. If such a material is used, even if it is a little hard, it will of course still serve the purpose of the present invention. It is also possible to use a photosensitive curing resin that is cured by ultraviolet rays.

Next, since the material of the manicure layer forming sheet B in the third and fourth embodiments is longer than your own nails, the tip part is made of a soft thin sheet itself such as a vinyl sheet. Then, long nails will not have the effect (they will become crooked). In this case, the manicure layer forming sheet B must have the same rigidity as the toe, but this does not necessarily mean that the manicure layer forming sheet B has the same rigidity as the nail.

The long nail effect only requires long nails when no pressure is applied to the tip of the toe, and even if the nail accidentally comes into contact with an object or is deformed when external pressure is applied, the long nail effect can be applied even if the nail is deformed when it happens to come into contact with an object or when external pressure is applied. In time, all you have to do is restore your nails to long nails. Therefore, the material should be slightly thicker than the first and second embodiments (covering the surface of the nail), be rigid and elastic, and be compatible with the curved surface of the nail in the width direction. However, it does not necessarily need to be flexible in this direction so that it can be applied to curved surfaces in the longitudinal direction up to the tip (same as nail tips).

Recently, there has been active development of composite materials for various uses. Incorporating this tendency into the present invention,
The surface is made of a material that creates a manicure effect, and the lower surface is made of a material that has a curved surface similar to a nail and a certain degree of rigidity, especially a sheet that easily deforms when exposed to heat or chemicals, and hardens when low temperatures or the chemicals volatilize. Next, for long nails, you can use commercially available artificial nail chips as a bonding material, attach them to the back adhesive layer 7 of the manicure layer forming sheet B, and instantly apply the nail chips. It is possible to easily fake long nails by pasting them on your own nails instead of using adhesive, but in this case, you can use commercially available fake nail chips, which are especially strong. It is attached to a nail polish layer forming sheet B having a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 7. Resins that are cured by ultraviolet light are also suitable for this purpose.

In the above manicure method of the present invention, each step has been explained assuming that it is applied to one's own nails, but in general, nail manicure, like other cosmetic methods, can be performed by a person who specializes in the process. It may be possible to have the construction done on your behalf. Particularly in modern times, there is a strong tendency for makeup processes to be simple, quick to perform, and require no skill, so the development of the present invention in accordance with this objective will be described below.

(i) Simplification of the molding process of the claw-shaped figure 5.

Although the shape of each person's nails is infinitely different, the nail shape obtained by molding each individual's fingers is considered to be the same shape almost every time it is used. (Although the length of the toe tip is thought to vary from time to time, the shape of the boundary 3 on the nail surface itself does not change each time the mold is taken.) Therefore, the nail shape figure 5 obtained in the first round is You can use this as the original drawing in the mold-making process for your next manicure, and if you copy this and use this recopied nail shape in the necessary process for each manicure, you can use it for the first mold-making process. In the second and subsequent manicure processes, a nail-shaped figure can be obtained by simply recopying the original drawing, which simplifies the operation. Therefore, for this purpose, the surface of the sheet on which the nail-shaped figure is to be recopied can be made such that the nail-shaped figure 5 can be reproduced by a known method, or the original nail-shaped figure can be recopied onto ordinary paper so that this figure can be reproduced. The recopied paper may be directly adhered or adhered to the surface of the manicure layer forming sheet B using water-soluble glue or adhesive. Of course, it may also be used by adhering it to the mold-making adhesive sheet A described above. Good too.

It is easy to recopy the nail diagram in this way, so if you make many recopies at once, you can omit the mold-making process every time you do a manicure.

Regarding this original nail shape, the shape of the nail changes slightly in the direction of the toe depending on the state of elongation of the toe at the time, so the original shape is slightly longer in the direction of the toe, that is, the shape of the nail is extended. It is better to make a diagram. The manicure layer forming sheet B, which is longer than the current nail in the direction of the toe, is set on the nail surface, and then the manicure sheet protruding from the toe is cut using a nail clipper, scissors, knife, etc. Depending on the circumstances, it is possible to easily set the size to be exactly the same as your own nails.

(ii) Regarding quick and simple synthesis of the overall process of the present invention.

As with many types of makeup, it is not necessary to carry out all the steps of the present invention yourself during a manicure. In other words, it is conceivable to ask someone else to do some of the work, or to prepare it in advance. That is, the nail-shaped molding process, the recopying process of the nail-shaped figure 5, the process of cutting the nail polish layer forming sheet B according to the nail-shaped figure, etc.
It is not necessarily necessary for the individual who does the manicure to perform it himself. Therefore, as long as you ask someone else to make your own nail-shaped figure and hold it,
It becomes possible to prepare a large number of manicure layer forming sheets B cut and molded into the shape of one's own nails at any time. In other words, if an individual performs this manicure method, simply use the manicure layer forming sheet B.
All you have to do is attach the nail polish to the surface of your nail, and if necessary, match the tip of your nail with the manicure layer forming sheet B (using nail clippers or scissors).

As explained in detail above, the present invention has the following effects.

(1) Since no organic solvents are used, there is no health problem.

In other words, nail manicure methods that use organic solvents are widely used, but if the present invention, which does not use organic solvents, is applied, even if nail enamel is used, organic solvents will not affect the nails. It is possible to prevent the negative effects of When performing a manicure using nail enamel as this method, a manicure layer forming sheet made of a material that does not allow organic solvents to pass is adhered to the nail surface in advance by the method of the present invention, and the nail enamel for manicure is applied to this surface. That's why. As a result, even if nail enamel is applied for a long period of time, the above-mentioned harm will not be caused to the nail itself, and the effect on human health is great. According to this method, there is no need to use an organic solvent even in the work of peeling off the enamel, and the enamel can be completely removed by simply peeling off the nail polish layer forming sheet from the nail surface.

(2) Since the sheets are manufactured in advance in various luster and color tones, compared to current paints, there are many different color tones such as luster, metallic luster, pearlescent luster, fluorescent color tones, etc.
Creates more photoreversible gloss than the manicure method.

(3) There is no harm to human health such as rash caused by organic solvents or paints, and there is no risk of nail breakage.

(4) It is easy to paste, so you only need to use it when necessary. i.e. bathing, washing, cooking,
You can leave it on when doing household chores such as laundry, childcare, cleaning, or other labor work, but use it when necessary for banquets, dinner parties, outings, office work, customer service, sales, and other social activities. It can be used as needed for aesthetic and cosmetic effects.

(5) Can be used many times.

(6) Easy to use.

(7) It may not be used for sports, etc.

(8) You don't need to keep your nails long all the time to improve the effect of your manicure.

(9) No need to repair the manicure surface.

(10) It is possible to replace it with a completely different color and gloss in a short period of time. Switching between long nails and your own nails is just as easy.

(11) Even after applying the sheet of the present invention to the nail surface for about 30 days, no abnormality was observed in the nail itself.
