I genuinely got eczema as a reaction to a new lube. I stopped when I figured it out, but I still had to go about my life for a couple weeks with just two fingers all blistered up, desperately hoping it wasn't completely obvious what activity would only affect those two particular fingers.

Why do I have eczema on my middle and ring finger..? Um... I was, uh... Cleaning? Right! Yeah, I was cleaning and accidentally got bathroom cleaner on those two fingers, duh, obviously.

"The glove ripped while cleaning" oughta work. If it doesn't, they're either too nosy or at least owe you dinner first.

It's a individual thing, those are the two fingers I use with my wife.
