But this product is magnesium CHLORIDE. The two are very different chemically. Most importantly, magnesium chloride is better for making magnesium oil (you can boil it half and half with filtered water and let it cool down... voila! Fresh magnesium oil). **Q: If I mix magnesium with water and then with coconut oil to make a lotion would I have to add a preservative? Thank you.** A: No, you would not need a preservative if you mixed your own lotion containing: magnesium, water and coconut oil together. As magnesium chloride is a salt and already a self preserver. In addition, you may be interested to know that Ancient Minerals also makes a great lotion, gel and spray as well. Enjoy! **Q: what is the right proportion of Ancient Minerals magnesium flakes and water to make magnesium spray oil** A: I suggest putting 25% flakes in a little travel spray bottle to start, then adding hot tap water to dilute. Then it won't tingle as much when you first use it. I use 50% now after my body mag levels became normalized. Your body sucks it in about 30 minutes then it's all gone. That's why most spray it 30 minutes before showering. I carry it around everywhere. **Q: what is the chemical composition difference between this and epsom salts?** A: Mg sulfate (MgSO4) is epsom salts. Sulfates are salts of sulfuric acid. Mg chloride (MgCl2) is what this product consists of. Chloride is an ion and is an electrolyte that is important for transmitting nerve impulses among many other things. If you can handle all the sciency mumbo jumbo, I recommend Googling "NIH magnesium sulfate and magnesium chloride" or something similar to ensure you get legit results. This study seems to be legit and relatively easy to decipher: http://www.jle.com/fr/revues/mrh/e-docs/magnesium_chloride_or_magnesium_sulfate_a_genuine_question_266651/article.phtml?tab=texte The bioavailability of MgCl2 is good vs. the low bioavailability of MgSO4. My personal experience? I've used both epsom salts in the bath and used magnesium chloride in the bath as a treatment for a neurological syndrome I have that is quite horrible. I feel like the magnesium chloride has helped me more in decreasing the pain, at least temporarily. There is certainly a difference in terms of chemical composition of both of these compounds. While neither is "better" than the other per se, for the purpose of taking a bath to help with pain I would recommend the magnesium chloride over the epsom salts. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Calidad aunque caro *by M***. on 21 November 2024* Excelente calidad he visto los resultados, lo he hecho en forma de aceite y le agregué aceite esencial de romero y clavo y me ha hecho muy bien me lo aplicó 20 minutos antes de bañarme y como me da alivio. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A wonderful product - provides magnesium fast through the skin *by E***N on 23 September 2017* ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ オールシーズン使えるマグネシウム入浴剤！ギフトにも喜ばれる高品質バスフレーク *by う***ん on 7 September 2025* 妻へのプレゼントとしてこちらのマグネシウム入浴剤を購入しました。結果は大正解で、デスクワークで肩や足の疲れが溜まりやすい妻が「身体が芯からスッキリして、リフレッシュできた！」ととても喜んでくれました。 特に感動したのは、夏のぬるめのお湯でも約30秒でしっかり溶ける速さ。季節を問わず、オールシーズン快適に使える点が素晴らしいです。入浴後は身体がぽかぽかと温まり、お肌もしっとり。冷え性や疲労回復、リラックスしたい方に本当におすすめできます。 自分用のご褒美はもちろん、大切な人へのギフトにも最適です。健康や癒しを贈れるアイテムとして、これからもリピートしたいと思います！ ## Frequently Bought Together - Ancient Minerals Magnesium Bath Flakes - Bathing Alternative to Epsom Salt - Soak in Natural Salts - High-Absorption Efficiency for Relaxation, Wellness & Muscle Relief - 8 lbs - Ancient Minerals Magnesium Bath Flakes Ultra with OptiMSM - Resealable Magnesium Bag of Zechstein Chloride Alternative to Epsom Bath Salt (1.65 lb) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.fr/products/265643201-ancient-minerals-magnesium-bath-flakes-8lb](https://www.desertcart.fr/products/265643201-ancient-minerals-magnesium-bath-flakes-8lb) --- *Product available on Desertcart France* *Store origin: FR* *Last updated: 2026-04-24*
