Somewhere here I saw instructions on a post for making your own magnesium oil, but can't find it again. Anyone help?

50/50 by volume epsom salts and water.

I use bittersaltz from agricultural merchant- but any decent chemist will have small packs.

Water from the tap- but if you have super sensitive skin- then bottle water is cheap.

I keep the mix in screw top jars- it lasts forever.

Good luck.

Thanks for that. Do you spray it, paint it or wipe it on? Rub it in, or leave to be absorbed?

I just rub it on- but people do all the other suggestions you make. No need to rub.

It may sting a little for some people - if you have very sensitive skin. Just wash it off if it's too uncomfortable.

A bath with epsom salts- about two cups - is good. But don't soak longer than 20 mins. Otherwise the goodness flows back out - apparently! !!

Cheers.

Hi look for my post AFG. Magnesium chloride flakes purchase in bulk from a lab online. 2 tablespoons dissolved in 100ml warm water, shake and put into a spray bottle. Keep an bottle in your handbag, by the bed etc. Spray liberally and rub in.

Or put 2-3 cups of the flakes into a hot bath and soak in it for 20 mins.

Good luck
