I've found rock and roll blue to be the best chain lube for all conditions. It deals well with dusty and sandy Australian conditions as well as NZ mud.
Interestingly I don't need to de-grease before applying to a new chain. In fact I don't bother de-greasing chains at all with rnr blue. Simply wipe down chain and re-lube.
In terms of grease, I use:
-Shimano anti-seize
-Slicko for suspension
-Castrol marine grease for Hope hubs
-Finish line ceramic grease for bearings
-Manitou m-prep for igus bushings
-Dumondetech pro x grease for I9, DT, and P321 hubs.
