A colorimeter, webcam, camera, spectrophotometer, scanner or other instrument measures the color composition and conditions and texture of a person's body part or presented beauty product and an individual custom formulation is produced. A presented beauty product may include foundation, concealer, tinted moisturizer, primer, skin care products, blush, nail polish, hair dye, lipstick, lip gloss, mascara, eye liner and eye shadow. The produced custom formulation may comprise foundation, concealer, tinted moisturizer, primer, skin care products, blush, nail polish, hair dye, lipstick, lip gloss, mascara, eye liner, eye shadow or other consumer products. A computer system 301 includes a processor 501 and a non-transitory, computer readable medium 500 containing machine readable instructions that accept data from a colorimeter 300 or like instrument and uses a main executable program 502 and a subroutine 504 for color analysis.

1. A cosmetic blending machine, comprising: (a) a first computing device;(b) a first canister assembly having a first canister containing a first fluid;(c) a first needle nozzle configured to dispense the first fluid into a cosmetic container;(d) a color measuring device in communication with the first computing device, the color measuring device configured to scan and acquire a color composition of a target area of a user;(e) a foundation software module stored on the first computing device that is configured to, when carried out by the first computing device, calculate and formulate an average target color composition of the scanned target area and substantially match the average target color composition to a custom cosmetic product color in a second database of interpolated colors that are derived from a first database of colors; and(f) a device driver software module stored on the first computing device that is configured to, when carried out by the first computing device, receive the custom cosmetic product color information and send instructions to a controller to dispense the first fluid through the first needle into the cosmetic container to create a cosmetic product having the custom cosmetic product color. 2. The machine of claim 1, wherein the first database is comprised of human body part and cosmetic product colors. 3. The machine of claim 2, wherein the second database is comprised of approximately 100 to 20,000 interpolated colors and the first database is comprised of approximately 100 to 2,000 human body part and cosmetic product colors. 4. The machine of claim 1, further comprising a client file software module stored on the first computing device that is configured to, when carried out by the first computing device, receive and store information pertaining to the user. 5. The machine of claim 4, wherein the information pertaining to the user includes at least one of the average target color composition and the cosmetic product having the custom cosmetic product color. 6. The machine of claim 1, further comprising a first peristaltic pump in fluid communication with the first canister and the first needle nozzle. 7. The machine of claim 6, wherein the device driver software module stored on the first computing device is configured to, when carried out by the first computing device, receive the custom cosmetic product color information and send instructions to the controller to activate the first peristaltic pump to dispense the first fluid through the first needle nozzle. 8. The machine of claim 1, wherein the cosmetic container includes a base material and wherein the first fluid in the first canister is a color blender. 9. A cosmetic blending machine, comprising: (a) a first canister assembly having a first canister containing a first fluid;(b) a first needle nozzle configured to dispense the first fluid into a cosmetic container;(c) a first peristaltic pump in fluid communication with the first canister and the first needle nozzle; and(d) a controller configured to activate the first peristaltic pump to dispense the first fluid through the first needle nozzle into the cosmetic container to create a cosmetic product. 10. The machine of claim 9, wherein the first needle nozzle has a bent shape for directing the first fluid to a center section of the cosmetic container. 11. The machine of claim 9, wherein the first needle nozzle is tapered. 12. The machine of claim 9, wherein the first fluid in the first canister is a color blender. 13. The machine of claim 12, further comprising: (a) a second canister assembly having a second canister containing a second fluid selected from the group consisting of a color blender, a thinner, a moisture additive, a base material, and any combination thereof; and(b) a second needle nozzle in fluid communication with the second canister. 14. The machine of claim 9, wherein the first canister assembly further comprises a canister cap and agitator rod secured to a top of the first canister. 15. The machine of claim 9, wherein the first canister assembly further comprises a strainer disposed within an interior of the first canister. 16. The machine of claim 9, further comprising a sanitary elevator and tub, the tub storing cleaning fluid and the sanitary elevator raising the tub to contain the first needle nozzle when the first needle nozzle is not in use, the sanitary elevator including a sensor measuring the height of the tub to position the tub at a preselected elevation to store the first needle nozzle within the cleaning fluid. 17. The machine of claim 9, further comprising a heater and fan attached to a thermal sensor, the heater and the fan configured to maintain a temperature of the machine below a preset limit. 18. The machine of claim 9, further comprising a vibrator and shaker machine configured to move the cosmetic container containing the dispensed fluid in at least x, y, and z directions with at least one speed. 19. A method for blending a custom cosmetic product, comprising: (a) providing a first computing device;(b) providing a first canister assembly having a first canister containing a first fluid;(c) providing a first needle nozzle configured to dispense the first fluid into a cosmetic container;(d) using a color measuring device to scan and acquire a color composition of a target area of a user;(e) sending, by the color measuring device, information pertaining to the scanned target area to the first computing device;(f) running, by the first computing device, a foundation software module to calculate and formulate an average target color composition of the scanned target area and substantially match the average target color composition to a custom cosmetic product color in a second database of interpolated colors that are derived from a first database of colors;(g) processing, by the first computing device, the custom cosmetic product color information in a device driver software module stored on the first computing device; and(h) sending, by the first computing device, instructions to a controller to dispense the first fluid through the at least one needle into the cosmetic container to create a cosmetic product having the custom cosmetic product color. 20. The method of claim 19, wherein the first database is comprised of approximately 100 to 2,000 human body part and cosmetic product colors and the second database is comprised of approximately 100 to 20,000 interpolated colors. 21. The method of claim 19, further comprising providing a first peristaltic pump in fluid communication with the first canister and the first needle nozzle, and running the device driver software module on the first computing device to receive the custom cosmetic product color information and send instructions to the controller to activate the first peristaltic pump to dispense the first fluid through the first needle nozzle. 22. The method of claim 19, further comprising running the device driver software module on the first computing device to send instructions to the controller to pull a last drop of the first fluid back into the first peristaltic pump after the first fluid is dispensed through the first needle nozzle. 23. The method of claim 19, further comprising maintaining a temperature of the machine below a preset limit with a heater and fan attached to a thermal sensor. 24. The method of claim 19, further comprising moving the cosmetic container containing the dispensed fluid in at least x, y, and z directions with at least one speed with a vibrator and shaker machine.
