This self-inflating powder puff comprise of two self-inflating platforms, the adjustable air pressure puff, and the folding handle puff, both of which suit the user-specified requirements. The adjustable air pressure puff comes with a soft rubber handle, adjustable buttons, air holes on the outer wall of the inflating airbag, and an air valve device. By adjusting the air intake volume based on personal preferences, users can control the softness of the puff, thus delivering a personalized experience. The folding handle puff features a foldable handle and air holes in the inflating airbag. When not in use, users can press the air valve device to deflate and shrink the airbag body, making it more compact and convenient for storage and transportation. In contrast to conventional puffs, the self-inflating puff uses a silicone liner instead of the traditional sponge liner. This enhancement prevents the puff from absorbing excess foundation which means less unwanted foundation waste. Additionally, it enables the puff to absorb precise amounts of powder, leading to a more even and long-lasting makeup effect. The integrated silicone airbag ensures a softer and more uniform pressure that conforms to the facial contours, delivering a comfortable experience to users. Moreover, the newly designed replaceable sponge shell is thinner and lighter, facilitating quicker drying after applying makeup and preventing mold and mildew. Unlike conventional puffs, it eliminates unnecessary components like the sponge liner, upper pull-tab, and soft cover, resulting in a more eco-friendly and efficient use. The sponge cover can be easily replaced, reducing material consumption and extending the product lifespan. With the self-inflating handle design, users can choose from a variety of sponge covers with different shapes and textures to suit their personal preferences. In fact, the introduction of the self-inflating puff is essentially revolutionary. It signals that makeup tools are no longer restricted to simple material enhancements and updates, but rather progress towards a new kind of tools that are consistently innovative and technology-oriented.
