Listings show lengths roughly from about 1.48 inches up to about 8.75 inches, with widths commonly around 1.25 to 1.75 inches.
Typical claims include food‑grade or non‑toxic silicone, BPA‑free construction (sometimes also free of BPS, PVC, and phthalates), and occasional third‑party testing or compliance with standards such as CPSIA, ASTM, or Prop 65.

Most are either spatula‑style or brush‑style, typically made with a soft silicone head designed to spread ointment evenly.
