Hello, Thank you for posting your question on HealthcareMagic
Firstly dont take your hands anywhere near your face.
Wash them with alcohol to remove the traces of pepper.
After that you could dip your hands in a bowl of cold milk and another bowl of XXXXXXX water .
This will allievate the burning.
Hope this helps
Best wishes
