When cement comes into contact with skin, the
skin becomes hard thick and dry. It’s more than likely to cause the
exposed area to crack, it can also cause nails to become brittle and
inflame eyelids. If water is added to
cement it generates heat and can actually burn skin. In some cases it
can lead to dermatitis, to read more on the proper handling of cement
