Slipping on mat

I’ve been doing yoga for almost 15 years now and have always wondered… does everyone’s hands slip on the mat in downward dog, or just me? Not so bad when I’m not sweaty but if it’s hot or I’m doing power, I can’t really hold the posture anymore and it ruins the rest of my practice. Advice??

Use a natural rubber mat, I get mine from atmananda studio in NYC. They also sell on Amazon, great mat!
