You can clean a stained leather saddle with glycerin soap or plain glycerin. There are these stores , Naturalia ( if you're in France, i suspect you are), where you can buy it for 2€. Shoe cream is not ideal but if you have nothing else, it's ok. Lip balm (yes) will do decently for proofing the saddle; with beewax and lanoline, preferably.

Thanks for the great info!
coconut butter - it a wonder and cheap
Doesn’t it dry though, leaving a grey residue?
Great advice, thank you.
Glad it was helpful!
Hi there, what’s your opinion after a few months is the shoe creme worked well?
Thanks for the question. I'm still using the saddle and it's till in good condition, so it worked! Cheers!
