Why Reaching Your Back Is Harder Than It Sounds
Moisturizer, sunscreen, and self-tanner work best when they are applied evenly, but the middle of the back is difficult to reach without twisting or asking for help. Applying extra product does not solve the problem; it often creates streaks while still leaving missed areas.
A Long Handle Makes Coverage Easier
A lotion applicator with a curved handle extends your reach and helps the pad follow the shape of your back. A non-absorbent EVA pad keeps more product on the skin instead of soaking it into the applicator.
How to Use a Back Applicator
- Add a small amount of lotion, sunscreen, or self-tanner to the pad.
- Spread the product across the pad before touching the skin.
- Use slow, overlapping strokes across the back.
- Rinse and dry the pad after use according to the product instructions.
