Baby Shampoo

Topsmoke · Sep 16, 2015

This is just a friendly reminder to anyone dealing with superhots especially sauce makers. In the case of eye exsposure Keep a bottle of tear free baby shampoo near the sink closest to where you're processing. It's a life saver and always rinse with cold water you want those pores to close up. Only took me three blind crawls to my upstairs bath to realize I should keep the shampoo in the kitchen. Can we have a "where it hurts the most" debate. Ive had it everywhere you'd think you wouldn't want it and my vote is skin around the eye, the eye flushs itself the skin soaks up the capsaicin.

sidenote - I also don't use flip top lids on my sauce bottles anymore, damn Morugas!

I've tried this product and it WORKS! I'm not affiliated with the product in any way, but anyone who deals with chiles in any reasonable amount or on a frequent basis should get some of this pepper burn anodyne.

Other than that, I'd suggest putting gloves on before going to the bathroom.... :lol:

I learned this the hard way making chili many years back. Your parents teach you to wash your hands AFTER using the bathroom. That was the first and last time I ever made that mistake!

ETA: Thanks for the tip OP, never thought of this.

Putting contacts in after cutting habaneros hurts.

It also hurts the next time you put them in

Throw 'em out!
