Description

Gentle. Comforting. Calming.

Elektra Magnesium® Baby Calm Balm is an ultra-light, botanical magnesium cream specially formulated for babies, children, and those with extra-sensitive skin. Featuring a gentle 5% food-grade magnesium chloride concentration, it delivers approximately 50mg of elemental magnesium per teaspoon, helping to calm irritability, soothe delicate skin, and support more restful sleep.

With a silky, non-greasy texture, this lightweight balm glides smoothly over the skin and absorbs beautifully, making it ideal for baby massage, bedtime routines, teething support, and everyday soothing care. It can also be used as a gentle facial moisturiser for sensitive or acne-prone adults.

Formulated with rich organic plant oils and botanical extracts, including calendula, chamomile, fingerlime, snowflower, rosehip, and rose geranium, Baby Calm Balm provides deep nourishment and natural skin protection. These carefully selected ingredients are known for their calming, healing, and restorative properties, helping to relieve dryness, redness, and irritation.

Infused with a subtle, comforting aroma of geranium, nerolina, and Australian fingerlime, this balm creates a peaceful sensory experience that promotes relaxation for both babies and parents. Zinc and magnesium further support skin health, strengthening the natural barrier and enhancing resilience.

Made without artificial chemicals, petrochemical ingredients, or harsh preservatives, this vegan, nut-free, toxin-free formula offers only the gentle care of nature. The non-comedogenic finish leaves skin feeling light, moisturised, and refreshed, like a soft touch of angel wings.

Key Benefits

  • A gentle 5% magnesium chloride 
  • Delivers ~50mg of elemental magnesium per teaspoon
  • Supports relaxation and restful sleep
  • Soothes dry, irritated, and sensitive skin
  • Ideal for baby massage and bedtime routines
  • Helps calm stressed or acne-prone skin
  • Non-greasy, fast-absorbing texture
  • Vegan, nut-free, and toxin-free
  • Safe from birth
  • Suitable for babies, children, and adults

How to Use

Gently massage a small amount into the skin as part of a calming routine. Ideal for use after bath time, before sleep, or whenever comfort is needed.

May also be applied lightly to the face for sensitive skin care. Use daily or as required.

Note: Elemental magnesium means the single ion of magnesium, not including the extra chloride ion that comes packaged with magnesium chloride flakes. The elemental magnesium content is generally 12-16% of magnesium chloride natural salt depending on the original source water concentration. Therefore if there is 500mg of magnesium chloride per gram listed on the label, this will generally be around 60mg of elemental magnesium per gram. So make sure you're comparing apples with apples. 😉

How To Use

How To Use Baby Calm Balm

Use as much as you like.

The skin will take up what it can handle at any one time, according to the capacity of the collagen structure. The body draws from the epidermis what it needs, but does not overdose itself. Your body gives you feedback, so use as much as it takes to feel the difference. Generally speaking, the more stress one is under, the greater the body’s needs for magnesium replenishment. 


Magnesium Baby Calm Balm

This is our most gentle cream for those who have very sensitive skin that need a little bit extra love, along with babies and toddlers.

Gently massage a small amount into your baby’s back and legs after bath time to promote calm and sleep.
Use during teething by rubbing a little balm into jawline or feet to soothe irritability
Apply to dry, irritated or sensitive areas of skin to moisturise and calm

This can also be used as a lightweight daily facial moisturiser for adults with sensitive skin

How to Calm Down Teething Stress with Baby Calm massage


During teething babies can suffer high stress levels due to inflamed gums. This can make them irritable and hyper-sensitive. One of the best ways to help bub relax and be soothed is to use transdermal magnesium, which is gentle, natural, safe and effective. Magnesium is anti-inflammatory, helps to relax from stress, and speeds up recovery from teething discomfort. Use one teaspoon of magnesium chloride flakes per small baby bath, or if they are using the big bath, half of one cup of flakes. Finish with a comforting baby massage, focusing on back and legs, using Baby Calm Balm.

The plant extracts in this luxurious skin conditioner are simply divine, with skin-loving Chamomile, Calendula, Geranium, as well as Australian Native Snowflower, Nerolina and Fingerlime. The cream is light and creamy - ideal also as a facial moisturiser for Mum! Its natural botanicals offer an uplifting aroma to soothe frazzled emotions and calm stress.
Note: Topical use only. Do not apply Baby Calm Balm directly to broken or abraided skin.

Baby Calm Balm is available in 150g and 15g tubes which are fully recyclable, and are made with 30% recycled plastic as part of the circular economy.

Magnesium Skin Care


How Magnesium Skincare May Benefit Those with Psoriasis

Magnesium skincare products from Elektra Magnesium may be helpful for people with a variety of skin complaints, including psoriasis. Magnesium is essential for many functions of the body, such as helping your body use vitamin D. By helping achieve balance and optimal functionality within all body systems, magnesium can also help with a variety of skin conditions as well.

What You Should Know About Magnesium for Psoriasis

Psoriasis affects people of all ages. This skin condition, characterised by raised, itchy, pink lesions made of a build-up of dead skin cells, is actually an imbalance of the immune system. Here are a few things that you should know about psoriasis and addressing your symptoms with magnesium.

  • Psoriasis has numerous potential triggers. There are many different possible reasons for your psoriasis flare-up, including stress, obesity, excess alcohol consumption, smoking, skin injuries and infections, cold air, and more.
  • Magnesium is a vital mineral stored mainly in your muscles and bone. Magnesium is essential to the regulation of calcium and other nutrients as well as the activation of several enzymes. However, many people do not consume enough magnesium, so upping your intake and magnesium absorption may help if you have conditions or symptoms related to a deficiency of this essential mineral.
  • Magnesium may help reduce the symptoms of psoriasis. Adding extra magnesium to your routine in the form of topical skincare products may help relieve the inflammation that leads to psoriatic lesions, especially when combined with a healthy diet and lifestyle.
  • The other magic nutrients vital to your skin health and barrier protection are rich plant lipids (fats). The combination of natural magnesium chloride and plant oils and butters provides an ideal comprehensive ‘meal’ for your skin’s nutritional support.

MAGNESIUM CREAMS TO CALM, NURTURE AND REVITALISE STRESSED, DRY FLAKEY SKIN incl ECZEMA, PSORIASIS, DERMATITIS, or ITCHY RASH

Magnesium helps to build collagen, which can hold more lipids and water for skin barrier hydration and protection. Also, it's a good idea to avoid exposure to known synthetic and petrochemicals, as well as harsh detergents and alcohols, which tend to aggravate sensitive skin conditions.
Although pure magnesium oil can feel bitey and itchy at high strength, the secret to getting better magnesium absorption into skin is the blend of plant oils that carry the magnesium chloride salt in mild concentration, and help it pass into the epidermis. This is what Elektra Magnesium Cream does so well. The skin loves it and devours it thankfully. Being able to absorb more magnesium transdermally can help your body to re-balance itself and become more tolerant to stress. Here is a way for you to tread slowly and safely to support your body's needs for recovery from stress and magnesium deficiency, at the same time receiving premium anti-ageing skin care support.
Daily application and absorption of magnesium is a convenient and very safe way to supplement the body's needs of magnesium.

GENTLE ULTRA-LIGHT MAGNESIUM TREATMENT FOR HYPER-SENSITIVE SKIN

STAGE 1. Magnesium chloride flakes (food grade) for footsoaking and bathing (at least 2-3 times per week): MAGNESIUM IS EXTREMELY IMPORTANT FOR THE BODY'S DETOXIFICATION SYSTEM AND TO SUPPORT THE LIVER. By soaking in magnesium bath water your body will not only have the opportunity to take up magnesium at its own pace (without further digestion), but also to excrete toxins via skin. Drinking adequate magnesium water every day (ie. similar to natural spring water) also helps your body to become better hydrated and able to flush out wastes. Magnesium flakes (food grade) can also be used to make your own magnesium drinking water. Make sure to avoid drinking fluoridated chlorinated tap water as these chemicals will kill beneficial gut bacterial. The chemicals also block and bind up magnesium. 


STAGE 2. Add on the use of Baby Calm Balm (which is ultra light at only 1/3 of the magnesium as the standard Magnesium Creams). 

STAGE 3: Then after a while you can try moving up to Herbal Elektra Magnesium Cream as a moisturiser to soothe and protect dry sensitive skin. Herbal Magnesium Cream has more magnesium, but also a richer fat content to help buffer the salts. Many people find the Herbal Magnesium Cream the 'go-to' cream to try first for sensitive or extra-dry skin. This one is our most popular cream being used and promoted via practitioner clinics Australia-wide. Do not apply directly to broken, open or weeping skin, but work the cream in around the injured area. Start with one teaspoon a day and then over a few weeks increase to 2 teaspoons daily (once or twice a day) for skin maintenance... You can also use the Baby Calm Balm as a face cream, and use the Herbal Magnesium Cream as a body cream. It's a matter of experimenting to see what works best for your needs. There is no limit as to how much you use. The creams are well absorbed, feel so good on the skin, and help to maintain a more youthful looking complexion. The more stress we have to deal with, the higher are the magnesium demands to support recovery. Excessive stress triggers more inflammation and skin sensitivity. Magnesium helps to restore reserves to bring us back to equilibrium. Everyone will have differeng needs. One T-shirt doesn't fit all.

Magnesium Skin Care - Naturally - Article

Gently massage in for period cramp

Symptoms of Pre Menstrual Tension PMT) or the inflammation of Endometriosis is exacerbated by magnesium deficiency. Magnesium is a natural anti-inflammatory. Giving your body a little help with relaxing magnesium massage can soothe pain, sensitivity and bloating by helping blood circulation and delivery of magnesium to cells. Your craving for chocolate at that time of the month could be because of magnesium deficiency - but you can get a lot more magnesium from Magnesium Cream!

Pregnancy case study (download pdf)

See how Michaela changed her lifestyle to all natural highly nutritious regime, with daily magnesium massage and skin care - particularly on tummy area to maintain stretch capacity and resilience of skin. With her skin type being highly prone to stretch marks she had been concerned, but happily reported (with photos) that there were no stretch marks after her pregnancy. She also enjoyed a healthy pregnancy, using transdermal magnesium daily to massage tired sore muscles for relaxation and to promote better sleep.
Happy mum; happy baby.

Magnesium Cream for pregnancy and breast-feeding mothers - Article

Pregnant women, in particular, greatly benefit from using transdermal magnesium due to the higher magnesium demands of growing a baby in the womb, as well as the feeding demands of baby. We all know that breast feeding is a better stronger support for a developing immune system, but what does Mum have to support her own needs?
Foods are generally lower in magnesium today compared to over 50 years ago. We also lose a lot of magnesium under stress, and pregnancy presents a big stress for the body that can take some time to recover from. By using transdermal magnesium we can give the body the opportunity to take up from the skin the nutrition it needs for recovery, and in its own time. Nothing is being pushed artificially into the body. It just happens naturally and gently. CAUTION: Avoid applying to open wounds or nipple area where baby feeds. Time to RELAX and really enjoy your pregnancy, birth and beautiful new member of the family!

Before & after sun skin recovery

Elektra Magnesium Cream is high in plant fats which help to hold moisture in and protect skin. The infused magnesium works inside the skin to support cell repair and recovery. The presence of lipids and magnesium also promote production of vitamin D in the skin. Vitamin D is then absorbed into body from skin.
NOTE: Magnesium Cream is not a sun block and one should be mindful about safe length of time in sun, appropriate for skin type. If you do get a bit of sunburn, apply extra thick layer of magnesium cream for soothing cool comfort and extra hydration.

Studies Recommend Magnesium for Headaches 

Magnesium For Headaches Is Considered A Natural Remedy

Pain is a factor that people deal with all around the world, using all sorts of products to relieve them. However, many don’t consider using magnesium for headaches. Magnesium is an essential mineral that is required by the body. Ultimately, it’s responsible for the operation of several biological processes and brings hydration into cells, which avoids dehydration and consequent tension. Magnesium also improves blood circulation, which is heavily dependent on the right electrolyte balance. The problem is we don’t supply our body with enough magnesium nutrition via the food we ingest. 

Benefits Of Headache Relief

Studies have shown that people with low magnesium levels are susceptible to headaches and migraines. A 2018 Review found: "Prophylactic treatment of migraine by means of high levels of magnesium dicitrate (600 mg) seems to be a safe and cost efficient strategy in clinical use." Research has been continuing in the use of magnesium for headaches. A 2020 Review concluded: "Migraine is usually related to low amounts of Mg in serum and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). Deficits in magnesium have significant role in the pathogenesis of migraine. Mg has been extensively used in migraine prophylaxis and treatment."

The lack of magnesium affects neurotransmitters and prevents blood vessel constriction, which results in migraines. Regular doses of magnesium are shown to reduce migraines by 40%. Apart from assisting with relieving stress headaches, using magnesium regularly has several other benefits. 

  • Magnesium assists with lowering your blood sugar levels, thus reducing the risk of Type 2 diabetes. Research has demonstrated that a magnesium deficiency contributes to poor insulin resistance hence causing Type 2 diabetes. Even though more clinical research is required to treat diabetes with magnesium, preliminary studies have shown there are positive results. 
  • Most people focus on calcium for the health of their bones; however, the wonder mineral, magnesium, assists with improving the strength of bones. It increases bone density, which decreases the risk of diseases such as osteoporosis. Apart from directly assisting with bone crystal formation, magnesium regulates the calcium and vitamin D in the body, which controls the health of bones. 
  • If you’re a fitness fanatic, magnesium is crucial to the recovery of your muscles. The processes that assist you with working out is the removal of lactic acid and boosting muscles with glucose and energy. Intake of magnesium increases your cellular hydration, electrolyte balance and muscle performance levels if you’re at the gym or playing sport regularly. 

What To Expect From Elektra Magnesium Regarding Natural Ways To Relieve Migraine Headaches

We discovered a huge amount of magnesium research indicating the crucial role that magnesium plays in our overall health, and so decided to pursue the development of an innovative line of products that would assist people from all walks of life with several issues. Instead of taking magnesium orally, which eventually winds up at the back of your cupboard never to be seen again after the first two weeks, we developed entirely natural, vegan-friendly and effective products to provide enough magnesium for your body naturally.

  • We are pioneers in bringing transdermal magnesium treatments to Australia. All our products are free from chemicals and are completely natural. We source our material from the world’s 15% certified food grade magnesium chloride. The flakes are tested and have shown no presence of mercury nor lead in parts per billion. 
  • Our products offer your body more than just minerals. Since we supply topical products, when you apply it to your skin, you receive natural skincare support, relaxing muscle care and an effective method of transporting magnesium into your cells. The products are convenient, thus ensuring we receive our daily dose of magnesium using an everyday product. 
  • We have an online store that’s easy to navigate and provides detailed information on all our products. The checkout process is simple, and we’ll deliver to any location in the world. Our product range is available at over 300 locations in Australia, the UK, and the USA. 

About Elektra Magnesium

Our family operation commenced in late 2008 with a commitment to developing high-quality natural body care products containing magnesium. We understood that people were not taking in the correct amount of magnesium, and that pill supplements were expensive, not efficient and used for a only short time. Our goal was to create natural magnesium body care products that would be used regularly for skin care and relaxation, but also provide the body with its essential minerals. Contact us for an innovative solution to your magnesium requirements.

Not just another magnesium

We understand skin and how to get magnesium in. Our magnesium product range caters for all ages and skin types to offer optimal magnesium nutrition. Established since 2008, Elektra Magnesium® is the original and still the best loved Australian magnesium brand. Our co-founder Peter Sanderson created the very first magnesium cream in the world in 2009.

Why fight nature when we can use nature’s pure plant oils and extracts, with food grade magnesium salts, (and without toxic chemical ingredients), to support our well being with the least amount of fuss or wastage? We love to bring you and your whole family quality magnesium products that really work because they absorb well, smell divine, and feel great.

Take the magnesium quiz
Does it sting?

We formulate all our skincare products with beautiful natural fatty ingredients that help to prime the skin so that it can absorb the magnesium without feeling stingy, itchy or uncomfortable. Baby calm balm is our most gentle formula for adults with sensitive skin as well as babies/toddlers.

Can I overdose?

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.

Can I use this on my kids and pets?

YES! Magnesium is essential for all ages and all life on earth.

0-3 Years - Baby calm balm, Flakes and Mineral drops for drinking water.

3-14 Years - Baby Calm Balm, Flakes, Mineral drops for drinking water, Cleanser and Magnesium creams.

14-16 Years - Baby Calm Balm, Flakes, Mineral drops for drinking water, Cleanser, Magnesium creams and Lotion

16+ Years - Baby Calm Balm, Flakes, Mineral drops for drinking water, Cleanser, Magnesium creams, Lotion and Spray

What products for my skin type?

Normal skin types can use everything

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.

How long before I feel a difference?

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.

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.
5. 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.
6. 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.

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.”
