I have a bottle of sno-seal beeswax or should I go the oil route?

That's what I used on mine, works well. Follow instructions and reapply occasionally. Will change the color a bit.

I used it on my leather winter boots and it’s been great, will probably do the gloves tonight

I can definitely recommend this. I use the sno-seal on a collection of vintage leather Nordic gear, and I swear by it.

And yes, it will darken the colors, and can darken unevenly if you get overly enthusiastic in one area and then lose you vim elsewhere. But, honestly, I’ve started enjoying the darkening. Almost like a point of pride.
