Abstract: The present invention provides methods and devices for personal cleaning and, in particular, for cleaning and/or drying following defecation or urination, or for cleaning and freshening during menstruation.
Devices according to the invention are unitary, in the sense that they do not require any configuring or formatting prior to use, and have two distinct zones of varying functional performance, one zone being configured with the principal objective of absorbing and retaining faeces, urine or menses, and the other zone being configured with the principal objective of protecting the user's hand.
The devices drape over the user's hand and can be manipulated into body crevices.
