Migraines/headaches, fatigue, infertility, sleep issue among a whole host of others are indications that you could be deficient in magnesium.

The most abundant food sources of magnesium are cooked leafy greens, bone broth, grass fed dairy, and cacao.

That’s a pretty short list making it difficult to get in sufficient amounts of magnesium through food alone. Especially if you are under stress and are burning through magnesium rapidly.

This is why we love adding in magnesium topically through this lotion. You could just rub a magnesium oil directly on your skin but we’ve found it to be quite irritating. This lotion (especially with nourishing tallow) is smooth and creamy and leaves skin feeling moisturized with the added benefits of magnesium!

Ingredients:

½ cup water
½ cup magnesium flakes (we love @ancientminerals)
½ cup tallow
3 tbsp olive oil (or avocado oil)
2 tbsp cocoa butter (or shea butter)
2 tbsp candelilla wax
10 or more drops of essential oils (optional)

Directions:

1. Heat ½ cup of water to just before boiling.
2. Stir ½ cup of magnesium flakes into the hot water until the magnesium flakes are completely dissolved.
3. Add tallow, olive oil, cocoa butter, and candelilla wax to a heat safe glass container.
4. Add water to a pot and heat on stove. Place a rag or towel at the bottom of the pot and add your container of tallow and other ingredients on top of the rag.
5. Heat up the water on medium heat on stove to heat up tallow mixture until everything is completely melted.
6. Once melted, remove from heat.
7. Using an immersion blender*, blend the tallow mixture while slowly pouring the magnesium water into the tallow mixture.
8. Blend until the magnesium solution is completely blended in, a lotion is formed, and desired consistency is reached.
9. Pour into jars.
