: Soap solution is a hypertonic solution i.e., more concentrate than our skin cells. ... During washing of clothes, exosmosis takes place in the skin cells. This leads to shrinkage of skin over thefingers while washing clothes for a long time.

Why does the skin of ur finger shrink

when you wash cloth for long time

========================÷

REASON

=======

Your skin is covered with its own special oil called sebum .

Sebum is found on the outermost layer of skin. Sebum moistens, or lubricates, and protects your skin.

It also makes your skin a bit waterproof.

That's why water runs off your skin when you wash your hands, instead of soaking it in like a sponge would.

But staying in water for a long time washes away the sebum. Then, the water can penetrate the outer layer of your skin. This causes your skin to become waterlogged and wrinkly.
