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 ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Favorite bath salts *by S***A on May 24, 2026* these bath flakes dissolve instantly in warm water and work better than Epson salts.

If you’re looking to soothe aching muscles and get a great night’s sleep, this is the perfect product! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Relaxing and Effective Magnesium Bath Soak for Muscle Relief and Relaxation *by G***1 on January 23, 2025* Ancient Minerals Magnesium Bath Flakes are a premium alternative to traditional Epsom salts, offering magnesium chloride harvested from the Zechstein seabed for superior purity and effectiveness. Designed to support muscle recovery, stress relief, and magnesium replenishment, these flakes dissolve easily in warm water for a soothing bath experience. I tested them after workouts and on evenings when I needed extra relaxation to assess their performance compared to standard Epsom salts. Pros: ✅ High Purity Magnesium Chloride: Sourced from the ancient Zechstein seabed, ensuring a natural and highly absorbable magnesium source. ✅ Quick Dissolving: Flakes dissolve much faster than typical Epsom salts, providing an immediate, silky bathwater texture. ✅ Enhanced Muscle Recovery: Provides significant relief from muscle tension and soreness, ideal after intense physical activity. ✅ Gentle on Skin: Leaves the skin feeling soft and moisturized without drying effects, unlike some harsher bath products. ✅ Customizable Doses: Easy to adjust the amount of flakes for mild relaxation or more intense muscle relief. Cons: ❌ Higher Cost than Epsom Salt: Premium quality comes with a higher price point, making it less budget-friendly for frequent use. ❌ No Fragrance Option: While its unscented formula is great for sensitive users, some may miss the aromatherapy aspect of scented bath products. Performance and Usability: The magnesium flakes provided a deeply relaxing bath experience. Compared to Epsom salts, they worked more effectively in relieving post-workout soreness and easing muscle tightness. The skin benefits were also notable, leaving no residue or dryness. The flakes dissolved quickly in warm water, allowing for a hassle-free setup. For regular use, especially after physical exertion or during periods of stress, these flakes proved highly beneficial. Comparison: Compared to Epsom salts, Ancient Minerals Magnesium Bath Flakes offer superior magnesium absorption and enhanced relaxation effects, but at a higher cost. While Epsom salts remain a budget-friendly option, the magnesium chloride in these flakes makes them more effective for those needing serious muscle recovery or magnesium replenishment. Who Is This For?: This product is ideal for athletes, those with muscle tension, or individuals seeking a more effective alternative to Epsom salts. It’s also well-suited for users with magnesium deficiencies or those looking for a natural way to unwind after a long day. Conclusion: Ancient Minerals Magnesium Bath Flakes are a top-tier bathing product for those seeking a relaxing and effective way to replenish magnesium levels. While the cost may be a consideration for some, the exceptional quality, ease of use, and noticeable benefits make it well worth the investment for regular self-care or recovery routines. ## 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.tn/products/1349154-ancient-minerals-magnesium-bath-flakes-pure-zechstein-magnesium-chloride-soaking](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/1349154-ancient-minerals-magnesium-bath-flakes-pure-zechstein-magnesium-chloride-soaking) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-07-23*
