The Magic of Topical Magnesium

by Zac Averett

Let’s face it: Life after 40 is a beautiful, empowering chapter, but it can also bring new challenges. From shifting hormones to restless nights and general discomfort, our bodies start to ask for a little extra care. That’s where topical magnesium comes in—a quiet hero in the wellness world that more women are discovering.

If you’ve never tried magnesium lotion before, you might be surprised at how this simple mineral supports both body and mind, making self-care feel effortless and soothing. Let’s explore why topical magnesium deserves a spot in your daily ritual.

What Is Topical Magnesium?

Topical magnesium is just what it sounds like: magnesium you apply directly to your skin. It comes in forms like sprays, lotions and flakes. Unlike oral supplements that pass through your digestive system, topical magnesium is applied to the skin.

Magnesium Rituals for Soothing Results

Now that you’re experiencing midlife and its many changes, how you unwind, destress, and prepare for bedtime can impact your overall well-being.

Need a moment to reset? Our vanilla-scented Magnesium Lotion offers a subtle hint of calming vanilla in a more fast-absorbing formula for a soothing self-care moment. Try this simple ritual:

  • Choose a quiet, calming spot in your home.
  • Dim the lights or light candles for a calming atmosphere.
  • Slip into soft, comfortable clothes.
  • Massage the vanilla-scented Magnesium Lotion onto your arms and legs; the Shea Butter and Coconut Oil nourish and hydrate, for skin that feels soft to the touch.
  • Once done, take a few moments to meditate or try a guided meditation like Lavendaire’s 10-minute version.
  • Notice how your body and mind feel balanced, peaceful, and cared for. You’re ready to move through your day feeling refreshed and nurtured.

Prefer a spray formula? Try out Magnesium Oil Spray, which makes self-care easier than ever. Simply spray on, massage into skin, and feel the soothing benefits of magnesium.

Struggling to unwind at night? Our unscented Magnesium Lotion absorbs quickly, leaving no residue—perfect for bedtime. Here’s a gentle ritual to prepare for a good night’s rest:

  • Lower your bedroom temperature to a cool, comfortable level.
  • Complete your usual bedtime ritual.
  • Change into your comfiest pajamas (think: cotton or linen).
  • Dim the lights to help ease your mind and body.
  • Massage unscented Magnesium Lotion onto your arms and legs; the Shea Butter and Coconut Oil will soothe your skin.
  • Turn off the lights, mist your pillow with lavender, and settle into your sheets.
  • If desired, play a soothing bedtime playlist or try a guided meditation like this 30-minute Yoga Nidra for deep relaxation.
  • Enjoy the calm and rest deeply, waking refreshed.

Your Self-Care Routines Just Got Better

Topical magnesium is a simple, soothing way to support your body through the natural shifts of midlife and beyond.
