So everything I have read tends to say that all one needs to do is rub the natural oil of your palm before stropping until it feels warm for conditioning. I however have fairly dry skin, and wash my hands frequently as well. I was wondering if what I have already been doing is acceptable. Currently I just squirt a drop of Art of Shaving Pre-shave oil in my hand and rub my palms together then do the normal process with both hands. I can not imagine this being bad or excessive, but I am curious.
