Introduction Fingertips peel after exposure to liquid dish soap because the chemical surfactants designed to dissolve kitchen grease also aggressively strip the natural lipids and sebum from the skin barrier. This chemical degreasing damages the stratum corneum, leading to rapid cellular dehydration, inflammation, and the subsequent shedding of the compromised epidermal layers. Recognizing the … Read more
