Card Handling Advice Please

[CardMagicNJ]

Hey guys what's up I'm assuming this is probably happened to most of you. A lot of times I notice that my hands and fingertips are so smooth that the cards just slip right through them and I have no sort of grip on any of the cards and I'm not talking about brand new cards just certain times throughout the day my hands get like this I don't know if it's because we're starting to get colder weather here in the Northeast anyway is there some sort of lotion or anything I can use to make my hands and fingers more or less "tacky" I'm looking for some sort of "non-skid" for my hands LOL. any suggestions would be highly appreciated thank you

I have the same problem since I live in a really humid place. I would just wash my hands and do finger exercises for a few minutes and my hand gets back to normal. At least that’s how I do it.

That's a great suggestion thank you but ironically this happens right after I wash my hands I usually use dish detergent to get the oils off of my fingers but for some reason it kind of feels like I got my fingers too clean if you know what I mean?

If you practice some finger exercises and/or warm up your hands in some way, the feeling would go away. At least it does for me.

O'Keeffe's Working Hands hand cream works really well for me. You just need a little bit.

I use a product from Staples called Sortkwik. It's original purpose is for office workers to have slightly tacky fingers to flip through papers. No residue and just great amount of tackiness.
