Aquasentials - Easy Lotion Applicator

Used as described

Though quite costly, I didn’t regret buying it. A real quality product with excellent design. It serves the real purpose for which it has been made. The quality of the materials used is really great and durable. A must-have in a well equipped bathroom!!

I purchased this to help put a muscle pain medication on my back that my doctor prescribed for me. Most of the time, I have someone who can help me in the evenings, but if I need pain relief from this prescription during the day, I had no way to apply it myself. It's hard to reach all the parts of your back alone, no matter how flexible you are, but when you're having back problems, it's even harder! I was skeptical that it would help or i"d be able to use it well enough to get any real relief from the back pain medication, but it does work! In fact, not only does it work well on the back, but it's not a bad applicator for using on other parts of the body that I can reach, but where I don't want to get the ointment or cream or rub or prescription drug on my hands while applying it. I put the medication on the pad, reach it over my shoulder to get my upper back and then apply more and put it behind my waist for the middle to lower back. While I can't get the pressure that I could if someone were rubbing it on with their hands, most medications and topical creams or lotions don't really require it to be rubbed in deeply--you just have to get it enough on the surface so it absorbs. So when I'm done, instead of washing it out--since I'm the only one who uses this--I just pop the applicator head back into the plastic baggy and close it up. That way, I'm not wasting any medication, the head stays saturated, and it's easier to apply the next time. If there is any excess that got on the handle, it's a nice, slick wooden handle, so I just wipe it off with a cloth and it's good to go. The head is soft but pliable, slightly absorbent, but not enough to suck up all your lotion or medication. It's soft, but also firm and it doesn't have any rough edges or seams that you can feel, so no scratches or pricks while trying to use it. The handle is wooden, and solid. It feels strong and of good quality. I'd definitely recommend this applicator if you're in a position like me to need it for medication application--or even if you just can't quite twist or turn to apply lotion or sun cream or anything else you need to get on your backside of your body. It's also good for elderly folks or people with mobility and chronic pain issues to help apply lotions and other topical things to the extremities without as much physical effort. I highly recommend this product and for the price, you can't beat the difference it's made in my pain levels and self-sufficiency.

I've used plastic ones before but they always broke - this wooden one is not only lighter than you'd expect, to pack in a suitcase if you need to, but also angled perfectly for getting lotion onto my back. So pleased with it.

A diferencia de varias opiniones negativas que leí, me parece que es muy cómodo de usar, no lastima ni daña la piel, permite aplicar la cantidad de crema que se requiera: poca o más. Puedo alcanzar toda el área de mi espalda sin esfuerzo, aunque sí es necesario acostumbrarse a manejarlo, por el tamaño del mango y el volumen de la esponja. Los materiales parecen de buena calidad y creo que no es necesario sustituirlo cada tres meses, como dice el instructivo. La esponja es suave pero con la firmeza adecuada para su uso; y también me sirve como rascador de espalda!! Lo recomiendo mucho.

This is perfect. It doesn’t absorb much of the lotion and the angle of the handle is excellent. It cleans easily and feels very sturdy. I’m really happy with this.
