Reduce mucus and inflammation...
Inhaled essential oils aren't folklore. A network meta-analysis of 44 randomized trials found aromatherapy lowered heart rate by 3.4 bpm and supported a calmer state within 10 to 30 minutes. This is a bright blend of them, on a magnesium base.
For adults who want a scent cue at the front of the day. One 3 oz jar.
- Zechstein Magnesium
- MSM
- Organic Shea Butter
- Lab Tested Hemp Seed Oil
- Small Batch
- No Fillers
- No Synthetic Fragrance
- No Parabens
- No Synthetic Emulsifiers
Why people use it
- Calming aroma, aimed at morning. A network meta-analysis of 44 randomized trials found inhaled essential oils settle heart rate and support a calmer state, with 10 to 30 minutes of exposure doing the most.
- A scent cue is a habit. Used at the same point every day, a smell becomes the marker that the day has started. That's the whole design of this jar.
- Soothes tired muscles. Same base as the rest of the line: Zechstein magnesium chloride and MSM in organic shea butter. Label states ~280 mg of magnesium per teaspoon.
- Moisturizes. Hemp seed oil is 50 to 70 percent linoleic acid, the fatty acid tied to a normal skin moisture barrier.
- Scent is personal. What lifts one person is cloying to another. Try a small amount before you commit to a jar.
What's in the jar
Same base in every jar in the line. Only the essential oil blend changes.
| Ingredient | Why it's in the jar |
|---|---|
| Organic shea butter | The body of the lotion. It's what makes skin still feel soft an hour later. |
| Lab-tested hemp seed oil | 50 to 70 percent linoleic acid. Plant oils high in linoleic acid are studied for skin-barrier comfort. It also keeps the lotion from sitting on top of the skin. |
| Genuine Zechstein magnesium chloride | The magnesium. Bischofite, solution-mined from a 250-million-year-old Permian salt bed under the Netherlands, not built as a synthetic salt. The label lists ~280 mg of magnesium per teaspoon of lotion; that is magnesium in the jar, not an absorbed dose. Magnesium is bound by 3,751 human proteins (the human magnesome), which is why it's the base of every jar. |
| Deuterium-depleted distilled water | The water phase, and the carrier for the magnesium chloride. The deuterium-depletion step is Josh's own preference, not a claim about your skin. |
| MSM (methylsulfonylmethane) | An organosulfur compound. It's in the jar for skin comfort and for the sulfur it carries. |
| White/yellow beeswax | Holds the butter and water phases together and gives the lotion its set, without a synthetic emulsifier. |
| Essential oil blend | The profile is bright and citrus-forward, built for the front of the day. The oils aren't listed on this page yet. |
Count capsules as your magnesium number.
How to use
- First thing, across the chest, so the scent carries through the morning. Feet at the same time if you want it on more skin.
- Start with a thin layer, a teaspoon or less. A little goes a long way.
- Chest for the scent, bottoms of the feet when you want it on more skin. Thighs and forearms are the next spots people reach for. That's how people use it, not an absorption ranking.
- Patch test a small area and give it 24 hours before you make it a daily habit.
- If the jar separates, sit it in a bowl of hot water about 20 minutes, then remix with a milk frother. Repeat if it's still firm.
- Keep it cool and dry, out of a bathroom that swings hot and cold. Use within 12 months of opening.
- Pregnancy: we point people to Zanex Swap or Sleep Zzz. Under age 2: those two only, in very small amounts.
Sourcing & making
Every jar in this line is the same base: organic shea butter, lab-tested hemp seed oil, genuine Zechstein magnesium chloride, deuterium-depleted distilled water, MSM, and beeswax. The magnesium is bischofite, solution-mined from a Permian salt bed roughly 1,600 meters under the Netherlands, not built as a synthetic salt. Beeswax holds the water and butter phases together, so there is no synthetic emulsifier in it. Blended in small batches and poured into a 3 oz jar when you order.

- Practitioners who want a clean topical to hand a patient: seven ingredients, no fillers, no synthetic fragrance
Probably not for you if:
- You react to fragrance or specific botanicals. Email us and we'll tell you exactly which oils are in this blend.

The research behind the ingredients
Published research on the ingredients in this product, for education. These studies were not conducted on this product.
Essential Oil Blend
Essential oils and calm: network meta-analysis, 2023
Frontiers in Public Health · 2023 · meta-analysis · n=44 RCTs, 3,419 participants
A network meta-analysis of 44 randomized trials in 3,419 people found essential-oil aromatherapy lowered State (WMD -6.63) and Trait (WMD -4.97) Anxiety Inventory scores and reduced systolic blood pressure by 6.83 mmHg and heart rate by 3.43 bpm, with 10-30 minutes of exposure producing the most consistent effect.
Genuine Zechstein Magnesium Chloride (magnesium)
Magnesium and subjective stress review, 2017
Nutrients · 2017 · systematic review · n=18 studies
A systematic review of 18 studies found the existing evidence suggestive of a beneficial effect of magnesium supplementation on subjective anxiety in anxiety-vulnerable groups, while judging the overall quality of that evidence to be poor.
Genuine Zechstein Magnesium Chloride (transdermal magnesium)
Effect of transdermal magnesium cream on serum and urinary magnesium levels in humans: A pilot study
PLOS ONE · 2017 · RCT · n=25 enrolled, 24 completed
In a single-blind, parallel-group pilot trial of 25 adults, applying a magnesium cream supplying 56 mg of magnesium daily for two weeks raised serum magnesium by 8.54% versus 2.6% with placebo, reaching statistical significance only in the non-athlete subgroup.
Evidence note: Two strands of human evidence sit behind this jar. On the aromatic side, a 2023 network meta-analysis pooled 44 randomized trials and 3,419 participants on essential-oil inhalation and anxiety outcomes. On the mineral side, a systematic review of 18 studies found magnesium associated with lower subjective anxiety and stress while rating its own evidence base as needing better-controlled trials, and a 25-person cream pilot measured an 8.54% serum rise versus 2.6% for placebo. All of it is ingredient-level; this blend's oils are proprietary, so a trial of the blend at its own concentration is what would carry the evidence to the product.
FAQ
How long does the scent last?
Most of the morning, on the chest. A thin layer is enough; this blend is bright rather than heavy, so people reapply it around midday if they want the cue again.
When do people use it?
Mostly first thing, across the chest, so it carries through the morning. Some put it on the feet at the same time for the base. A thin layer is enough.
How much magnesium gets through skin?
Research is still catching up. One pilot trial saw serum magnesium rise after two weeks of a magnesium cream; a 2017 review called for bigger studies. People use it for how it feels on tired muscles and skin; we count capsules as the reliable magnesium number.
Why did my jar separate?
No fillers and no heavy emulsifier, so the water and butter phases drift apart, faster in a warm bathroom. Sit the jar in hot water about 20 minutes, then remix with a milk frother. Repeat if it's still firm. Nothing is wrong with it.
Can kids use it? What about pregnancy?
Josh's family uses these on adults and older kids, and uses only the Zanex Swap or Sleep Zzz blends, in small amounts, for under-2s and in pregnancy. That's house practice, not a safety clearance.
Pairs well with
- Happy and You Know It Lotion — the other scent-forward jar in the line
- Magnesium Malate — daytime magnesium, the reliable number
- Adrenal Cocktail — potassium and vitamin C for the same part of the day
Cautions
- For external use only. Keep it away from the eyes and mucous membranes, and off broken or freshly shaved skin, where magnesium chloride commonly stings.
- Store cool and dry, out of a steamy bathroom. Separation is normal in a filler-free lotion; rewarm and remix rather than assuming it spoiled. Use within 12 months of opening.
Lab Tested
Every product. COA on request, ~2 weeks.
