Look at this thing. Photogenic it is not. Anyhow, this is an attempt at putting sunscreen on the middle of your own back without needing help. The idea is to use it diagonally like how you can scrub your back in a shower with a washcloth, by draping its long side over one shoulder and grabbing the other end from beneath that shoulder on the side from the front with the other arm’s hand, then doing the same thing on the opposite side. Well I tried to do that with this thing and it of course ripped immediately. Then I figured out this would work best with a bandanna. In a pinch a rolled up sock, rolled up handkerchief or rolled up T-shirt could do the same thing. Then to get the sunscreen out of the fabric before washing you’d just need to put liquid soap on there, scrub, rinse, reapply the liquid soap and toss it into the laundry hamper. You could also find one of those long-handled bath sponge things, rubberband a paper towel over the business end of it and use that.
