I had such a memorable burn last year that i've been using a barrier hand wax. Basically a gardeners formula of beeswax and oil.(a bit like chapstick) Plus good gloves. And a good hand cleaner...

A friend gifted his unexpected bumper pepper crop so i prepped to smoke them for the freezer. I tried all of the above like avocado oil, vinegar, etc, then soaked in a zip-lock of ice cubes and greek yogurt. That basically numbed my hand enough to continue searching on the web. By bedtime it has subsided enough to sleep. 24hours later it still had some minor tolerable heat but not painful.

This is a great hand cleaner that i was out of and finally just ordered a case a few weeks ago from amazon. I use protection now but often prep raw handed if just a few. This dry soap with a bit of oil should do it for a minor burn.
