I have a similar situation, working with acrylics and often needing to clean brushes with various chemicals. My hands get dry and cracked when paint thinners enter the mix.
Some of the creams I have accumulated look very similar to tubes of paint. I keep them physically separated with a jar in the bathroom for when I need them. I put a small dab on the back of my hand if I am going to use them outside the bathroom, otherwise they stay there.
I had one situation where I mistook cream for a tube of medium and mixed it with paint. I was able to recover, but the project I was working on had a lavender scent. It was not the worst thing in the world, but something I am hoping not to repeat.
lol a lavender scent is not the worst thing in the world, but depends on the subject of the artwork :D I made similar mistakes in my experience, but I have to say that the mistake that I made more frequently is to clean my brushes (while I'm working) in the cup of coffee instead in the turpetine. Fortunately I've never drink turpetine instead coffee :O)
