What kind of powder is used on the violin bow to make it stick?

It's called rosin. Rosin is a resin from trees and, when it's rubbed on the hair of the bow of a stringed instrument, it helps the hair grip the strings better to produce a strong sound. We should not touch the bow's hairs because the grease on our fingers will stick to the rosin. The grease then spoils the bow's hairs from gripping the strings properly - making the bow tend to slip over the strings - which makes the bow much harder to use to play its instrument.
