Abstract
A personal hygiene device for cleaning the hands or feet has an outer enclosure of generally donut-like shape which forms an open ended cavity for receiving a user's hand or foot. The innermost surfaces of the enclosure which face inwardly into the cavity are covered with bristles. The enclosure has an internal reservoir within its walls for containing a suitable detergent or soap solution, and one or more outlet openings in the innermost surfaces of the enclosure are connected to the reservoir. A pump mechanism allows the user to pump fluid from the reservoir to the outlet openings, so that the user can move their hand or foot back and forth over the bristles to work up a cleansing lather.
