Abstract: A soap applicator for use by both adults and children which can be actuated with only one hand while allowing the free hand to retain balance by adults in a shower, or to maintain equilibrium by children in a bathtub. The applicator comprises a deformable soap reservoir and a normally closed, removable, perforated connection means attached to a soap wash cloth. In the soap storage mode, soap will be retained in the reservoir without leakage onto the wash cloth, but when pressurized by a user, which requires the use of only one hand, soap will be forced from the reservoir into the perforated connection means and through the perforations onto the wash cloth. The connection means can function as a filling connection for the soap reservoir by disengaging from the reservoir, reversing the connection end into the reservoir and injecting soap into the filling end of the connection means.
