Water, vaseline, other water-based lube.

Anything that helps the tool not stick to the GS works.

Keep a cup of clean water nearby for you to dip your fingers and modeling tool in. My modeling tool is an old, beaten to hell x-acto knife, but there are better ones out there. Whenever the green stuff starts to stick too much, dip the tool back in the water. In general, you'll also usually mix too much green stuff. Always take a little less than what you think you'll need - a little greenstuff goes a long way.

Also, wash your hands immediately afterward, especially if you plan on eating. If I recall correctly, the stuff is mildly toxic.
