1. A mixing method using a manufacturing apparatus comprising a mixing machine comprising
a support defining a receiving housing which defines an insertion aperture, and
a receiving device removably disposed within the insertion aperture of the receiving housing,
the receiving device 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 being intended to be fluidly linked to each other and containing respectively a first formulation and a second formulation, the manufacturing apparatus comprising an actuation system configured to transmit a pressure force to the first and second capsules in order to move the content of the first capsule in the second capsule, and vice versa, the mixing machine comprising a heater element configured to heat at least one of the first and second capsules when the first and second capsules are received in the mixing machine, the method comprising the following steps:
heating with the heater element up to a target temperature;
kneading by setting in motion the actuation system; and
cooling with kneading by setting in motion of the actuation system up to a withdrawal temperature from which the kneading is stopped.
