    not sure how winter is in England, but over here it gets so dry in the winter I have to lotion almost daily after pole. after class i wash all the grip off, and lotion pretty much from head to toe. it ends up improving my grip, when my skin is too dry and flaky I can't grip hardly at all!

    I agree with "pokeyd" in regards to moisturing after your workout. Mighty Grip will, with time, soften the skin on your hands. It is similar to the product they use in hot wax machines when you receive a manicure. 

    Wash any grip aid you may have on any part of your body and then moiturize. There are some excellent brands on the market for use by pole dancers/fitness. Especially in the winter, with all the dry heat in homes and studios, you must moisturize. 

    Hope this helps a bit.

    I use Dry Hands on my hands and on my body contact points (knee pit, inner thighs, elbow pit, etc).

    I’ve also started using pure vitamin E oil on my hands (after I lotion) to help moisturize and keep them from getting torn up. That’s a trick I learned from a circus friend of mine. (If you try it, a little goes a looong way! It leaves your hands oily so don’t use it before going out or something. Use it before bed)
