Default IWB Leather Holster treatment

I recently picked up a IWB Leather Holster for my 1911, and want to know the best way to treat the leather. It feels very stiff and dry. When I test fitted the gun, it left light marks on the gun, and looked like it had absorbed the oil from the gun.

As a kid, I remember we used to rub our baseball gloves with oil, but I cant remember if it was baby oil or mineral oil. (man, maybe I AM getting old. LOL)

I've got a IWB leather holster for my daily carry, which is so much softer and pliable. I realize they could be different types and qualities of leather. Just looking for suggestions on the best way to approach this lil project.
