Just an FYI that if you get superglue stuck to your fingers, 100% acetone will remove it. I've also heard that dish soap will, but have never tested that -- I always use 100% acetone on a cotton ball.
Olive oil or any vegetable oil will also do the trick I've found

I imagine that would take a long time. I guess if there’s nothing else around, folks will have it. I’d still suggest keeping a bottle of 100% acetone from the drug store on hand — will remove and dissolve it instantly like nail polish, and evaporate almost just as instantly (so no messy clean-up).

I think you'd be surprised, I pour some on my fingers and rub them together for a minute and they're good to go. Give it a try next time, a lot gentler on your hands if it works for you!

Haha, thanks but acetone is my go-to, esp since I always have it around for its original purpose, manicures. Evoo is what I stock, and it’s pricey enough that I’d rather keep it for eating.
