Jack's hands were always rougher than Daniel expected. They were hard and callused, dry from years of work. Jack hated hand lotion and believed that his hands were meant to hurt in dry weather. He almost seemed to enjoy torturing himself that way. Daniel tried to convince him otherwise, pointing out that even on Abydos they used a type of lotion to moisterize their hands. Jack scoffed and tucked his hands into his pockets, changing the subject by hiding the evidence. Daniel always let it drop until the next time Jack would touch Daniel's face and the skin on his hand would crack and bleed.
