Working with slippery cards?

[Jessica]

I was recently gifted the Mystic Mondays deck by Grace Duong and have been wanting to work with it more. The issue is that the cards a really slippery and hard to shuffle. Any tips on how to work with slick cards or any way to add grip without damaging them?

Probably not the advice you’re looking for but my technique is to let all the cards fall out of deck until there are like 1-3 left in my hand (depending on the reading). It’s very chaotic and pleasing.

Using them and letting the oil from your hands dull that sheen. Speed it up, a drop or two of essential oil in your hands. I’ve also heard dusting cornstarch but I’d need someone to back me up on that or Google search.

You just gotta break them in.
