Abstract
A handle and screw facilitate the applying of soap to hard to reach areas of the body. The handle may be wood, plastic, metal, or the like and may be of various desirable lengths and shapes. The screw is a specialty item with a novel characteristic of having features enabling a bather to easily advance the screw into the handle and a bar of soap wears thinner. The head of the screw is rounded to prevent scratching the user, and the screw either includes engaging features on an underside of the screw head to cause the screw to turn and advance into the handle by turning the soap, or the screw is a barbed screw advanceable by pressing into the handle.
