Arrow leather care kit

Hi again!
I would like to ask you how often shall I care of the leather of my X5. Two months ago I cleaned it with the BMW leather kit, with UV Protection.
I did this in the beginning of the summer, now the summer has ended and I want to know if this is the proper period for taking care the leather.
Anyone using this leather kit?

Thanks

I use it with great success on the X3. I use it periodically about twice a month. I don't eat in the X3 nor does anyone else. I use care when getting in and out of the vehicle as to not squish the side bolsters out of shape. Before conditioning the leather, I use a vacuum and go through the seams to get rid of dirt/sand/particles that might get caught in there.

And the leather still looks and feels new after 48k miles. Indeed it's in better condition than our CPO 325i sport, which has 8k miles. I know it's a PITA to adapt to leather and try and keep it clean. But hey I'm proud of it!

To answer your question, yes it is about time to detail your leather.
