In high concentrations, magnesium can sting when the skin is thin, sensitive or isn't hydrated enough. This is why straight magnesium oil doesn't always fit every skin type!
Our magnesium spritz is the highest concentration (60% Magnesium Chloride Salt). Our formula includes natural plant extracts to enhance absorption quickly and feel more soothing compared to pure magnesium oil. But if you have dry skin, you will may need extra fats. You can apply our magnesium cream to provide the skin with the missing lipids it needs to properly absorb the high concentration of magnesium
If you have hypersensitivity, we recommend starting with the flakes for foot soaks and baths, plus the mineral drops for your drinking water. Then once you have started to rebuild your magnesium stores, trial out our most gentle cream, the Baby Calm Balm.
Can I overdose or take too much?
The simple answer is no you can't!
The skin is the largest organ in the body and will not overdose itself on magnesium, it will sit in the epidermis of the skin like a dinnerplate and allow the body to take what magnesium it needs throughout the day without causing diarrhea like what happens with tablets and powders.
When using the mineral drops in your drinking water (6-12 drops per litre), you are creating your own natural spring water and at this concentration you can't overdose.
Can I use this on my kids and pets?
YES! Magnesium is essential for all ages and all life on earth.
Combination/Oily skin types normally prefer the Flakes, Mineral Drops, Cleanser, Lotion and Magnesium Creams (Island Spice, Zest-Citrus, Baby Calm)
Dry/sensitive skin types normally prefer the Flakes, Mineral Drops, Cleanser and Magnesium Creams (Herbal, Sensory Gold, Baby Calm) (The magnesium lotion may be too strong for dry skin types however try it because it usually is ok)
Hypersensitivity - normally prefer the flakes for foot soaks and baths, mineral drops for drinking water, then trial the baby calm balm. Hypersensitivity can be caused by magnesium deficiency, by restoring magnesium back into the body, over time this can help lessen the severity of the hypersensitivity.
If you're magnesium deficiency symptoms result around muscle cramps, restless legs, sleep etc, you can start feeling a difference from the first day!
For those with more severe symptoms can take a bit longer as the body will be slowly refilling your reserve tank of magnesium. Day by day, week by week, month by month, things will improve.
We need magnesium every day to function properly, with over 300 jobs to do in the body and over 1000 sub jobs, magnesium is as essential as oxygen and water to the body. If you have been burning through your reserves and not replacing it, the symptoms are your body's cry for help.
If after a week you're not feeling the symptoms ease, increase your daily dose, you can't go wrong except not using enough!
How do I know if I need magnesium and how much do I use?
Short answer: everyone needs magnesium, like we need water everyday, our body also needs magnesium, it just comes down to how much. Use the user guide to find your starting point.
How is this better than tablets and powders?
1. You need sufficient stomach acid to be able to digest lab-made tablet compounds and extract the magnesium ions. Tablets contain various fillers, binders, colourings and preservatives which can inhibit digestion.
2. High concentrations of magnesium do not easily cross the gut wall. Optimal gut absorption is at lower concentrations such as what would be in natural mineral water and foods.
3. Magnesium at higher concentrations in the gut attracts water, leading to loose stool and fast excretion of magnesium. When magnesium is combined with amino acids (chelated), it may be easier on the bowel due to slower transit, but it doesn't necessarily mean that all the magnesium fully transits across the gut wall to the interior so it can be taken up by tissue cells. Even the best digestive systems can't get more than 50% uptake of the magnesium in the best forms of chelated magnesium compound. At the lowest end of the spectrum is magnesium oxide, with only 4% bioavailability because it is so insoluble in water and unable to transit into cells.
4. The best use of oral magnesium tablets and powders is to treat constipation (not cramps, muscle or inflammation issues). However, that means only a very small amount makes it through to the muscles and bones of the body.
5. Magnesium chloride salt, once dissolved, is already in the right form for cellular uptake without further digestion. That’s why you can soak it up in a magnesium bath or rub it into skin via Magnesium Cream,Lotion or Oil Spritz. The skin acts as a massive reservoir able to store magnesium ions for later use by the body. This way nothing is wasted by the digestive system. It’s also an anti-ageing mineral for the skin.

Other Magnesium Oil Sprays
PREMIUM NUTRITION
Unique formulation with food grade magnesium chloride infused plant extracts and oils for better absorption, smoother application and finish. Smells nice too!
Just water and magnesium
SKIN FRIENDLY
No sticky irritating residue left on skin. Can use on back, legs, arms, chest (not just ‘feet’).
Either sticky and irritating at higher concentration, or so weak there is minimal magnesium effect.
60% MAGNESIUM SALT CONCENTRATION
60% magnesium chloride salt CERTIFIED FOODGRADE. Higher elemental magnesium at 300mg per 6 sprays
15-40% magnesium chloride salt, mostly INDUSTRIAL GRADE. Magnesium salt content IS NOT THE SAME AS elemental magnesium content.
LOWER COST PER VOLUME: BETTER VALUE
$36.30 for 180mL. Although you can use as much as you like and need, if you spray 6 times a day to get 300mg magnesium, that’s about 60 cents a day. This also outperforms magnesium tablets with much better value for money.
$20-$50 for 15-40% magnesium salt concentration. Mostly paying for expensive water.

Potassium Sorbate
Potassium sorbate is a salt of sorbic acid naturally found in some fruits (like the berries of mountain ash). The commercial product used in skin care products, to save cost, is manufactured to be identical to the plant extract, and is allowed in organic-certified skincare products within a recommended concentration range by bodies like Australian Certified Organic (ACO) and Ecocert, as it is considered a ‘nature-identical’ preservative that is approved for these standards, and is not genetically modified. It is effective against molds and yeasts and is often combined with other preservatives for broader protection in the product.

The story behind Elektra Magnesium
Surprised how many people have these issues? Heart racing for no reason? Skipping a few beats? Involuntary muscle twitches? Sleep problems? Losing focus; brain fog? Can’t handle stress? Fatigue? Wired but tired all the time? Stiff and achy? It doesn’t need to be this way.
I was told by my cardiologist years ago to, “Put up with it like everyone else. We have no treatment for you because your blood pressure is too low, and if we give you heart slowing drugs they could give you a heart attack. Your heart structure is normal and vascular system is clear.” He added, “You would be surprised how many other people have this problem. It’s just a twitch in the left ventricle of your heart, like a twitch in the eye.”
