5 Reasons Pole Dancers Love Menthol Grip Products
Pole dancing requires strength, flexibility, technique and reliable grip. Whether you're working on spins, climbs, inversions or advanced tricks, maintaining consistent contact with the pole is essential for both confidence and performance.
For dancers who train in warm studios, perform under stage lights or simply enjoy a refreshing cooling sensation, the Dancing Dust Menthol Range offers the same trusted Make Me formulas with one refreshing addition—natural menthol crystals.
Available in Menthol Make Me Dusty, Menthol Make Me Dewy Formula L and Menthol Make Me Dewy Formula X, the range provides the same reliable performance as the original formulas while delivering a cool, refreshing feel on the skin.
Here are five reasons why so many pole dancers love the Dancing Dust Menthol Range.
1. The Same Trusted Grip Performance
The Menthol Range isn't a completely different collection of grip products.

2. A Refreshing Cooling Sensation
One of the biggest reasons dancers choose the Menthol Range is the refreshing feeling it creates on the skin.
The natural menthol crystals provide an instant cooling sensation that many dancers enjoy during:
- Summer training.
- Warm studios.
- Long practice sessions.
- Competitions.
- Performances under bright stage lights.
While the cooling sensation doesn't replace proper hydration, many dancers find it helps training feel fresher and more comfortable.
3. Available in Original Shimmer or Icy Blue Shimmer
Every Menthol product is available in two beautiful finishes:
-
Original Shimmer – the classic Dancing Dust appearance.
-
Icy Blue Shimmer – a cool blue shimmer inspired by the refreshing menthol formula.
Both contain exactly the same trusted formula.
The only difference is the appearance, allowing you to choose the finish you prefer.
4. Naturally Fresh Minty Scent
The addition of natural menthol crystals doesn't just create the cooling sensation—it also gives every product in the Menthol Range a naturally fresh minty fragrance.
Many dancers enjoy the clean, invigorating scent during training, helping create a refreshing studio experience without changing the performance of the original formulas.
5. Handmade, Vegan-Friendly & Created for Pole Dancers
Like every Dancing Dust grip product, the Menthol Range is:
- Handmade.
- Vegan-friendly.
- Created specifically for pole dancers and aerial athletes.
- Available in formulas designed for different skin types.
It's this combination of thoughtful formulation, reliable performance and refreshing comfort that makes the Menthol Range a favourite among so many dancers.
