Do you let StarSan touch your skin?

Touching your skin is fine but be careful with jewelry around it. I sanitized 6 or 8 kegs one day so my hands had a lot of contact and it took the finish off my wedding ring. Luckily my wedding ring is Tungsten and quite cheap so SWMBO wasnt too pissed at me.
 
I bathe in it weekly and gargle with it before I go to bed every night. Nothin' quite like the invigorating tingle of StarSan on your junk.
 
I regularly have my hands covered in it.. if it gets in a tiny cut you'll get a warm tingly sensation. Other than that it does t dry your skin out anymore than doing dishes.
 
I'm not sure "dries out" really covers it. Starsan destroys my hands and SWMBO won't let me touch her in a non-worksafe way until I've remedied it. Damn you brewday! SWMBO loves you so much but I hate wearing protection (my fancy Blingmann gloves).
