Is this Dermo?

Hi @ll,

is this dermo? It would be the first time in life. First my skin at some parts of the body got a bit dry, but the hands are the worst.

It could be a combination regarding the hands: I was a lot outside in cold without any gloves, for hours, again and again.

And perhaps I am pressing my nylon nutmilk bag a bit too much.

I added a picture.

Yeah it looks like you mix without gloves right? Try wearing disposable nitrile gloves when you mix and knead the kava.

It will drastically reduce that look. You can also get O'Keefe's working hands which will nip that right in the bud.

Yes Groggy! I do! It wasn't a problem for years, since a couple of weeks it is different.
I did the same thing for many years and then had similar results. Jimmy AKA Kapm, put me on to them and my hands have never been better!
