Magnesium Chloride: Natural Wellness for Skin, Muscles and Sleep
Magnesium chloride is a naturally occurring mineral compound made up of magnesium and chlorine (MgCl₂). It’s typically sourced from seawater and appears as crystals or flakes that dissolve easily in water. This makes it ideal for use in beauty and therapeutic products, especially for supporting skin health, relaxing the body, and boosting overall wellness.
