Abstract
The present invention relates to the field of hygiene appliances, in particular to a means for reducing soiling of the skin of a wearer upon defecation. In particular, it relates to a hygiene article comprising a skin protection sheet that comprises a discontinuity as a faeces passageway, such as an opening or a slit. In use, the sheet and the discontinuity are urged towards the anus by a pull means and spread open by a spreading means, such that faeces can pass through the discontinuity but are separated from the skin of the wearer elsewhere.
