Abstract:
1. A device for applying a cosmetic composition, the device comprising: a battery power source; at least one heater member that is powered by the battery power source; and a circuit for controlling the power supply to the heater member, the circuit being configured to power the heater member at at least two power settings selected depending on the depletion state of the battery power source, wherein the circuit for controlling the power supply to the heater member is configured to operate at a first low-power setting to transfer to the heater member only a fraction of the electric power that can be supplied thereto by the battery power source, the first low-power setting corresponding to when both the following conditions are met: the battery power source is at full capacity, and the heater member is to be maintained at a service temperature, and wherein the circuit for controlling the power supply is configured to operate at a second full-power setting to power the heater member with all of the electric power that can be supplied by the batter power source, the second full-power setting corresponding to when the heater member is brought from ambient temperature to its service temperature, or to when a remaining capacity of the battery power source is less than a predefined degree of depletion.
