Most leather conditioners contain one of the following: animal fat (e.g. neatsfoot oil, mink oil), petroleum, pine tar or beeswax. The animal and petroleum oils will soften leather while pine tar and beeswax will not. I've found that boots will last a lot longer if you use oil-based conditioners sparingly and stick to beeswax and pine tar for waterproofing. Also, some leathers should not be treated with oil at all. I usually start with Red Wing Boot Oil, then finish up with SnoSeal.
