I keep my ring finger nail shorter just for that reason. Ring finger because that's the finger we should use around our eyes when applying creams and serums. I call it my jar finger

If your hands aren't clean enough to dip in a jar of cream, you shouldn't be touching your skin with them anyway.
Many actives aren't affected by opening and closing a container. Air and light only affect certain ingredients, like unprotected retinol, old school vitamin C, and some plant extracts. Peptides, acids, and many antioxidants will stay effective in a cream in a jar for as long as is listed on the packaging.
Also, only the surface of a cream has contact with air, so everything under there is protected anyway. Did you know that creams that aren't intended as sunscreens still sometimes contain low levels of sunscreen--to protect the formula from light? And the main reason for the tiny amounts of antimicrobials in products is to kill off any germs that get in there.
