1. A mixing method using a manufacturing apparatus comprising a mixing machine comprising a support defining a receiving housing, the receiving housing comprising a first receiving location configured to receive a first deformable capsule and a second receiving location configured to receive a second deformable capsule, the first and second capsules configured to be fluidly linked to each other and containing respectively a first formulation and a second formulation,
the mixing machine comprising an actuation system comprising a first actuation member configured to transmit a pressure force on the first deformable capsule and a second actuation member configured to transmit a pressure force on the second deformable capsule, the first and second actuation members each alternately exerting force along first and second actuation strokes, respectively,
the manufacturing apparatus comprising a heater element configured to heat at least one of the first and second deformable capsules when the first and second deformable capsules are received in the mixing machine,
the mixing method comprises:
a preparation phase, said preparation phase comprising the following steps, successively:
a first step of setting in motion the second actuation member along the second actuation stroke,
a second step of setting in motion the first actuation member along a partial actuation stroke which is smaller than the first actuation stroke, and
a step of heating by the heater element.
