Magnesium Chloride is a mineral salt commonly sourced from seawater. In cosmetic formulations, it functions as a skin-conditioning agent, helping to maintain skin softness and support a smooth, refreshed feel. It is infused in our personal care products (creams, sprays, and soaks) for its clean, non-greasy texture and gentle compatibility with skin types
Our Magnesium Chloride is sourced from the Zechstein Sea Bed in the European Permian Basin.The only form of Magnesium that is sourced from the ancient sea, deep below the earth. Free from pollutants and contaminants.
