OK, but you have to promise not to laugh! My husband has very sensitive skin and breaks out if he even looks at lotions, creams, lip balm. For the love of god I had to marry the only man on the planet who breaks out if I use chap stick.

Anyway knowing that there would be no help from him I was on a ***** to figure out how to get lotion on my back all by my little ole self. "Platic wrap". Yep, I take a sheet of plastic wrap long enough to hold like a towel when drying my back off. Lay it down on the bathroom counter and apply the lotion in the middle and use it just like I was drying my back off. It works great, now if I could only figure out how to patent it!
