BOOST 15g bagBOOST is one of Tokyo Powder's base foundation materials which boosts friction. By using it as a base before applying chalk, it gives a superior level of friction.How to use BOOSTApply a small amount of BOOST to finger tips and hand skin and rub into the skin. Allow to partially dry and then chalk up. BOOST increases the sticking power of chalk to the skin, as well as giving your skin a better friction coefficient.After washing your hands, it is moisturizing and helps protect your finger skin. Also, if you wash your hands once and apply it again, the effect will be even better!

“I am cautiously giving a 4, not a 3. Only tried it twice in one session under humid conditions and couldn't tell the difference. I am told by few mates, this is a game changer so waiting to find out...by testing and trialing.”

Thank you for your review and order. Yes, the Boost excels in cold/ dry conditions, and those with a drier skin will notice the most benefits from Boost. For those with sweatier skin, or if conditions are warm/ humid, there are a couple of other options to use the Boost and still gain the extra friction benefits. You can add the pack of Boost directly to a bag of chalk*, to boost the sticky friction of the chalk. The sticky effects are less than applying it directly to skin, but better for sweatier skin as you won't have the slimy feel. Or you can prepare the Boost by drying it out more before hand - Tokyo Powder has recommended microwaving the Boost (out of the packet, in a microwavable dish) in short bursts to remove some of the moisture. It can then be rubbed onto hands and fingers, or added to a chalk bag for a boost of sticky friction. *works best in conjunction with RX, can be used with Black or Super B. Benefits may be counteracted with V3

“Absolute game changer”
