I have treated strops with shave lather to break in with a bottle.

Also on a dry strop I have used a Nivea vitamin E hand cream, just apply to hands as normal rub in until not greasy feeling then...

my 2 strops both live in my bathroom on the side of my towel cupboard
but I have a larger bathroom ventilated with a fan & open window & we don't have really hot showers as it is hot enough here
