leather book care/restoration

Is there a recommended method of care for new, leather bound books?

Also, wondering if there may be a product for restoring dry and faded
leather bindings?

Thanks.

In bible-type bindings, e.g.. leather binding with no boards, it's
recommended to apply a little neat's-foot oil occasionally; and I assume
that would be the same for a leather hb. This will maintain the leather,
but I haven't tried oiling an old book.
