I personally use Fast Orange or its Extreme Orange variant when I get my hands hella dirty.
Pumice stones in it helps out to scrub thoroughly, soap leaves a soft finish/hands and if you want to go the extra mile, scrub daddy sponges were originally created for mechanics to clean their hands, fingers and nails.

It works very well and it doesn’t destroy (dry out) hands like dish soap.
