99.9% Magnesium Chloride Spray — Bedtime Formula
A pure 99.9% Magnesium Chloride transdermal spray formulated for gentle, calming magnesium delivery through the skin. This is the standard Magnesium Chloride spray in the Gumpii Apothecary range — without the MSM and DMSO enhancement of the Ultra formula — making it particularly well suited to evening and bedtime use, sensitive skin, and those who prefer a gentler transdermal magnesium option.
Magnesium is the fourth most abundant mineral in the human body and is required as a cofactor for over 300 enzymatic reactions — including energy production, protein synthesis, muscle and nerve function, and DNA repair. Magnesium is one of the most commonly insufficient minerals in the modern diet, with many adults not meeting recommended daily intake levels through diet alone. Transdermal application delivers magnesium directly through the skin, bypassing the digestive tract.

- No MSM or DMSO — gentle formula suitable for sensitive skin and evening use
- Transdermal delivery — bypasses the digestive tract
- Particularly well suited to bedtime and nervous system calming use
- Suitable for restless legs, night-time tension, and sleep wellness
- Australian made, small batch
Magnesium’s Nutritional Role
Magnesium is an essential mineral required as a cofactor for over 300 enzymatic reactions in the body. Key nutritional roles include energy metabolism (ATP synthesis), muscle contraction and relaxation, nerve signal transmission, protein and collagen synthesis, electrolyte balance, cardiovascular function, immune function, and bone mineralisation. It also plays a key role in supporting the absorption and utilisation of Vitamin D, Vitamin C, B vitamins, zinc, potassium, and calcium.
Why Transdermal Magnesium
Transdermal magnesium application delivers magnesium directly through the skin to underlying tissues, bypassing the digestive tract. This makes it particularly useful for those who experience digestive sensitivity with oral magnesium supplements, and for targeted application to specific areas. The calming effect of magnesium applied to the skin — particularly to the legs, feet, and shoulders — before bed is a well-established traditional wellness practice.
How to Use
Spray liberally onto skin and massage in. Particularly effective when applied to legs, feet, shoulders, or the back of the neck before bed. Can be left on or rinsed off after 20 minutes. Can be used daily. Mild tingling may occur on first use and will reduce with consistent use.
