The majority of holster makers will tell you to use a wax like Johnson's Paste Wax, Renaissance Museum wax, or neutral shoe wax.
Most will tell you NOT to use any kind of leather dressing or oils.
Dressings and oils are okay if you have leather you want soft and pliable like saddles, gloves, and boots, but you DON'T want a modern holster soft and pliable.
That causes the leather to stretch and that just ruins a good holster.
By oiling or applying an oil you'll at best take years of service life off the holster, and at worse just ruin it right there.
If in doubt read the FAQ's on some holster makers sites or just ask them.
Most will recommend wax and DIS-recommend dressings and oils.
