Magnesium will stop tingling / itching once your body is no longer deprived of magnesium. The tingling is to let us know we do not have enough magnesium in our system
Oh, how interesting, I thought it was just too potent and irritating to the skin undiluted or not emulsified with something else.
Is it equal parts of water and magnesium or 5 parts water to 1 part magnesium. I've seen different ratios and wondering which is correct.
@bronwyn6704 it's equal amounts of magnesium flakes and water, it's in the description under the video.
The tingle feeling is because magnesium is a vasodilator, Meaning, it expands blood vessels and creates more blood flow. The tingle is blood flow
You actually would need to add stearic acid to keep this combined....Emulsifying is what keeps it together.
recipes that include emulsified wax, bees wax, and coconut oil are fairly common.
My husband absolutely loves me using the magnesium oil on his back, topped with castor oil which takes it in deeper. He isn't as fond of the lotion.
A good idea with the castor oil! 🙂👍
Just got my order of Magnesium Oil 2 days ago because I decided I didn't have time to research how best to make my own---and Here you are! THANKS INGA!!
You're very welcome 🙂
I love this! thank you for sharing the oils on the Tropic Soothe...how wonderful!
You are very welcome! 😊❤️
❤
I will be making this
Thank you
You're very welcome! 🙂
very good, thanks for sharing
You're very welcome 🙂
Ive heard adding rose oil would help w the itchiness.
Good to know 🙂👍
Thanks xx
You're welcome 🙂
This looks amazing. I made another recipe that I made from another yt channel for the magnesium lotion and she used beeswax and I’ve heard others suggest emulsifying wax and citric acid due to making sure it Doesn’t get rancid. I made the mag lotion and it didn’t mix very well and when I apply it to my son and my skin it stings and irritates it so I’m not sure what to do other than waste a whole
Half jar and I’m concerned that I have to use emulsify wax, beeswax or something so it doesn’t go rancid. Is this a NECESSARY step?❤
Thanks. Wax is definitely not needed for this recipe, shea butter does the job here and it emulsifies beautifully and definitely does not go rancid. It sounds like you have too much magnesium oil in your version, perhaps add some melted shea butter to your mix and reblend - you don't want to waste the whole lot. Worst case scenario, you can always use that cream as foot cream, it shouldn't irritate too much as the foot skin is thicker.
@@HealthOrigins let’s see what that does💝
Since there is water in the lotion doesnt it need a preservative? Ive always been told anything with water MUST have a preservative. The last thing I want to do is rub a bunch of bacteria all over my body...but really would love to make this.
If you make small quantities, it will not have a chance to get any bacteria. There's enough salt and fat in this to not require a preservative. If you're worried, perhaps you could keep it in the fridge.
I use this as a deodorant
Oh, how interesting! 🙂
Can we add any essential oil for fragrance ???
Yes, absolutely! 🙂 Add it after the shear butter is melted, when you're mixing the oil in.
What I hace Is magnesium paste
Hello, I made the magnesium oil first as instructed. I made the lotion as per instructions and the oil separated from the shea butter. What went wrong?
Hm, not sure.. Was the lotion homogeneous (the same even consistency throughout) when you made it? Did you add the magnesium oil/water slowly into your oil while it was mixing? What oil did you use?
Is it required to make a brine? Can you just put the flakes straight into the recipe and dissolve them in the oils in the recipe instead of water?
I don't believe the flakes will dissolve in oil, I haven't tried making it that way, so can't really comment.
Can we use magnesium citrate instead of chloride? Would it work?
I am not too sure on that one, you will have to do a bit of digging and research online 🙂
Magnesium Chloride is more absorbable and is quite a bit more beneficial. Or so I have been told.
I made this and it separated immediately. Next try I will add beeswax.
That is strange, as mine never seperated, even after a couple of months.
I was told not to heat or boil- I was told just use hot water & put flakes in 🤷🏻♀️
That would work too, as long as the flakes melt 🙂
Ok I’ll try both ways. Would love to make the magnesium lotion- I tried another person’s video & it didn’t come out right. She had a food processor & you have some kind of blinder - all I have is a hand mixer. The first person’s it never set up- I hope if I try yours- it will. But again I only have a hand mixer 🤷🏻♀️
It should be absolutely fine with the hand mixer for my recipe 🙂
