[acne] What, if anything, do you do when you realize you touched your face with a finger/grazed it with a nail?

Beauty Tips For Body Care
An admittedly paranoid and silly question, but here goes: I'm really really good at not touching my face without washing my hands first. As in, I wash my hands between product applications or if I've handled anything else (bottle of water, washing dishes, ANYTHING). Last night I had a teeeny whitehead (the kind you can wipe off or scrape off) that I noticed when applying moisturizer and I used a tissue to remove it but realized that my fingernail had touched that part of my face (I had washed my hands before but...fingernails are fingernails). There wasn't a scratch mark, but now I'm worried...My general question is - do you do anything in addition to or instead of your normal routine to prevent a pimple from forming in the exposed area? My solution is to apply PC 2.5% BP immediately, but maybe that's hyperparanoid? And as an aside, the fact that all the women at my workplace routinely touch their faces with their hands and have no acne fears makes me irrationally annoyed haha.
