Cosmetic item for personal safety

Abstract

Descriptions of cosmetic items with personal safety devices are disclosed herein. In some embodiments, the cosmetic items hold personal beautification products such as makeup. In some embodiments, in addition to makeup, the cosmetic items also include a testing assembly which indicates the presences of specific chemicals mixed in liquids such as alcohol or water. In some embodiments, the cosmetic item includes a computer code trigger which initiates an emergency system. In various embodiments the computer code trigger takes the form of a button or printed computer code, and may include a wireless transmitter for sending signals to one or more computers.

1 . A cosmetic container comprising:
 a container body,   a cosmetic item housed within an interior of the container body and accessible via a first removable cap on a first end of the container body, and   a chemical testing assembly having a chemical presence indicator configured to indicate the presence of one or more chemicals within a liquid when the liquid is applied to the chemical presence indicator, the chemical testing assembly being configured for insertion into and removal from an interior of the container body and accessible via a second removable cap on a second end of the container body,   wherein the chemical testing assembly is coupled to the second removable cap such that removing the second removable cap causes the chemical testing assembly to extend from within the interior of the container body and expose at least a portion of the chemical presence indicator for chemical testing of the liquid.   
     
     
         2 . The cosmetic container of  claim 1 ,
 wherein at least a portion of the chemical testing assembly is shaped and dimensioned to nest with at least a portion of the cosmetic item when the chemical testing assembly is inserted into the interior of the container body.   
     
     
         3 . The cosmetic container of  claim 1 , wherein the chemical testing assembly comprises one or more openings proximate the second removable cap through which air within the interior of the container body can escape as the chemical testing assembly is inserted into the interior of the container body via the second end. 
     
     
         4 . The cosmetic container of  claim 1 , further comprising a moisture absorber in fluid communication with the chemical presence indicator within the interior of the container body. 
     
     
         5 . The cosmetic container of  claim 4 , wherein the moisture absorber is not in fluid communication with the cosmetic item within the interior of the container body. 
     
     
         6 . The cosmetic container of  claim 1 , further comprising an electronic module comprising a wireless transmitter and an actuator exposed to an exterior of the cosmetic container and configured to cause the wireless transmitter to emit a signal to be received by an electronic device when actuated. 
     
     
         7 . The cosmetic container of  claim 6 , wherein the signal is configured to, when received by an electronic device, cause a processor of the electronic device to execute instructions stored on non-transitory computer readable media in communication with the processor. 
     
     
         8 . The cosmetic container of  claim 7 , wherein the instructions cause the electronic device to initiate an emergency alert system. 
     
     
         9 . The cosmetic container of  claim 7 , wherein the instructions cause the electronic device to communicate a predetermined message to an electronic device of a predetermined recipient. 
     
     
         10 . The cosmetic container of  claim 6 , wherein the wireless transmitter and the actuator are contained within the second removable cap. 
     
     
         11 . A system for testing chemical compositions, comprising:
 a cosmetic container configured to house one or more cosmetic items; and   a chemical presence indicator configured to indicate the presence of one or more chemicals within a liquid when the liquid is applied to the chemical presence indicator;   wherein the chemical presence indicator is coupled to the cosmetic container.   
     
     
         12 . The system of  claim 11 , wherein the chemical presence indicator comprises a testing strip or a testing token. 
     
     
         13 . The system of  claim 11 , wherein the chemical presence indicator is coupled to an outer surface of the cosmetic container and covered with a protective covering. 
     
     
         14 . The system of  claim 11 , wherein the chemical presence indicator is coupled to an inner surface of the cosmetic container and the cosmetic container is configured to be opened to expose the chemical presence indicator for testing. 
     
     
         15 . The system of  claim 14 , wherein the chemical presence indicator is coupled to an inner surface of a removable lid or cap of the cosmetic container. 
     
     
         16 . The system of  claim 11 ,
 wherein the cosmetic container comprises an interior portion within which the chemical presence indicator is housed, and   wherein the cosmetic container includes an opening through which the chemical presence indicator can be removed from within the interior of the cosmetic container.   
     
     
         17 . The system of  claim 16 ,
 wherein the cosmetic container includes a member having a first portion configured to be inserted into the interior portion of the cosmetic container and a second portion forming an outer surface of the cosmetic container when the first portion is fully inserted into the interior portion of the cosmetic container,   wherein the member is configured to extend outwards from the cosmetic container to expose at least some of the first portion of the member to an area outside of the cosmetic container, and   wherein the chemical presence indicator is coupled to the first portion of the member such that a corresponding portion of the chemical presence indicator is exposed for testing when the member is extended outwards from the cosmetic container.   
     
     
         18 . The system of  claim 17 , wherein the member comprises a testing shuttle affixed to an end cap of the cosmetic container. 
     
     
         19 . The system of  claim 11 , further comprising at least one of the following:
 a printed code that, when read by an electronic device, causes a processor of the electronic device to execute instructions stored on non-transitory computer readable media in communication with the processor, and   an electronic module comprising an actuator and a wireless transmitter, wherein the actuating the actuator causes the wireless transmitter to emit a signal that, when received by an electronic device, causes a processor of the electronic device to execute instructions stored on non-transitory computer readable media in communication with the processor.   
     
     
         20 . The system of  claim 19 , wherein the instructions cause the electronic device to initiate an emergency alert system.
