<p>Being a climber one aim is to toughen up your hands (related: <a href="https://outdoors.stackexchange.com/questions/1562/how-to-toughen-up-hands">How to toughen up hands?</a>). Building up callused skin is important but how do you keep it? Having dry hands especially from the climbing itself I suffer from skinning.</p>

<p><strong>What's the best method to take care of your hands/skin?</strong> </p>

<p>Just use moisturiser or is it better to use those waxes they are selling for climbers pretty expensive? What are the differences and what are general suggestions?</p>
