A liquid applicator having a curved hollow handle and a sponge head assembly. Liquid is poured into the hollow handle or the hollow handle is threadably secured to a threaded neck of a bottle. The sponge head assembly removably mounts to a dispensing end of the hollow handle and includes a base and a sponge. A pair of aligned holes are formed in the dispensing end of the handle and the base of the sponge head assembly for allowing liquid contained within the handle to flow therethrough and be absorbed by the sponge. A valve assembly is provided to adjust the flow of the liquid from the handle to the sponge. The valve assembly may include a dial formed with a plurality of different-sized holes. The dial is rotatable between a fully open position, a closed position or several intermediate positions. Alternatively, the valve assembly may include a slide plate having a tapered opening. Different portions of the tapered opening may be aligned with the holes of the dispensing end and sponge head assembly allowing a user to adjust the flow rate of the liquid therethrough.
