Actually, I've not found it neccessary to wear gloves when handling undiluted 35% peroxide. If I get some on my skin I just simply wash it off. It won't "burn" your skin, but it WILL oxidise (bleach) the dead skin cells on the surface of your skin, turning the area white temporarily. If you don't wash it off, the area will start to sting, but if you just wash the area off quickly with plain water no harm will result.
