Applying cream to your back was impossible until this clever device was designed. It comprises of a long handle and a round lotion holder with multiple rollers. It works on the principle of a roll-on deodorant. The balls rotate to distribute the lotion and the long reach handle means you can reach most of your back independantly.

Applying Cream To Your Back

Applying cream to your back was impossible until this clever device was designed. It comprises of a long handle and a round lotion holder with multiple rollers. It works on the principle of a roll-on deodorant. The balls rotate to distribute the lotion and the long reach handle means you can reach most of your back independantly.

Applying Cream to Your Back

Applying cream to your back used to be almost impossible to do independently. You have to be incredibly supple to apply anything using your hands! Using a long-length back flannel used to be an idea, but they absorb the cream and don’t work.

Dry Skin Conditions

Dry skin conditions such as Eczema and Psoriasis don’t choose the parts of your body you can reach! If you have either of these or simply dry skin it is essential you can reach to apply your prescribed medication or moisturising lotion. It’s surprising just how distracting and annoying an itchy back can be. A long-handled applicator is also perfect for applying cream to your back in the sun – sun tan lotion.

Long-Handled Applicator

If you haven’t seen this long-handled applicator you will be glad you stopped and read this post. It is a very affordable way to independently apply all your creams and lotions to your back or lower legs.

Simple But Effective

This applicator is perfect for applying cream to your back and lower legs with its long-reach handle and roller-ball dispenser. It works like your roll-on deodorant does. As each of the small balls circles it takes a small amount of the lotion from the holder and distributes it on your skin. It is perfect for travelling as the handle comes apart for packing. The one featured is incredibly good value as it comes supplied with 3 lotion holders.

3 Lotion Holders

The fact this has 3 lotion holders means you can use one while others are being washed. Probably the best way to do so is to leave them soaking in warm water with washing-up liquid. Alternatively, you can use one for your moisturiser or medication lotion and one for sun-tan lotion in the Summer.
