That ALL Night Sleep Zzz Magnesium/MSM Lotion - Calming and Sleep
Regular price
$31.77
Reduce mucus and inflammation...
Valerian is one of the few botanicals with a 60-study meta-analysis behind subjective sleep quality, and magnesium has one behind falling asleep faster. This jar carries both, at the lighter valerian load, for nights that already mostly work.
For adults with a steady bedtime who want a nightly wind-down. One 3 oz jar of the shared Magnesium/MSM base.
- Zechstein Magnesium
- MSM
- Organic Shea Butter
- Lab Tested Hemp Seed Oil
- Small Batch
- No Fillers
- No Synthetic Fragrance
- No Parabens
- No Synthetic Emulsifiers
Why people use it
- One drop of valerian. Sleep X-Treme carries ten. That's the only stated difference between the two jars.
- For a routine that already works. If your evenings are steady, start here. If the pattern is still shaky, Josh sends people to X-Treme first and back to this jar afterward.
- Valerian and subjective sleep quality. A meta-analysis of 60 studies in nearly 6,900 people found valerian preparations supported sleep quality and a settled mind. The authors flagged inconsistent extract quality across trials.
- Magnesium at bedtime. Three pooled trials in older adults found oral magnesium shortened time to fall asleep by about 17 minutes. This is the topical form of the same mineral.
- One of the two house blends. This and Zanex Swap are the only blends Josh's family uses in pregnancy and, in very small amounts, for under-2s. House practice, not a safety clearance.
What's in the jar
Same base in every jar in the line. Only the essential oil blend changes.
| Ingredient | Why it's in the jar |
|---|---|
| Organic shea butter | The body of the lotion. It's what makes skin still feel soft an hour later. |
| Lab-tested hemp seed oil | 50 to 70 percent linoleic acid. Plant oils high in linoleic acid are studied for skin-barrier comfort. It also keeps the lotion from sitting on top of the skin. |
| Genuine Zechstein magnesium chloride | The magnesium. Bischofite, solution-mined from a 250-million-year-old Permian salt bed under the Netherlands, not built as a synthetic salt. The label lists ~280 mg of magnesium per teaspoon of lotion; that is magnesium in the jar, not an absorbed dose. Magnesium is bound by 3,751 human proteins (the human magnesome), which is why it's the base of every jar. |
| Deuterium-depleted distilled water | The water phase, and the carrier for the magnesium chloride. The deuterium-depletion step is Josh's own preference, not a claim about your skin. |
| MSM (methylsulfonylmethane) | An organosulfur compound. It's in the jar for skin comfort and for the sulfur it carries. |
| White/yellow beeswax | Holds the butter and water phases together and gives the lotion its set, without a synthetic emulsifier. |
| Essential oil blend with 1 drop of valerian | Valerian oil at one drop per jar, against ten in Sleep X-Treme. That's the stated difference between the two. The rest of the blend isn't listed on this page yet. |
Count capsules as your magnesium number.
How to use
- Bottoms of the feet is the method for the sleep jars. Enough that they're covered but not greasy.
- If you need more than the feet will take, add a second area from the list rather than piling it on.
- Start with a thin layer, a teaspoon or less. A little goes a long way.
- Chest for the scent, bottoms of the feet when you want it on more skin. Thighs and forearms are the next spots people reach for. That's how people use it, not an absorption ranking.
- Patch test a small area and give it 24 hours before you make it a daily habit.
- If the jar separates, sit it in a bowl of hot water about 20 minutes, then remix with a milk frother. Repeat if it's still firm.
- Keep it cool and dry, out of a bathroom that swings hot and cold. Use within 12 months of opening.
- Pregnancy: we point people to Zanex Swap or Sleep Zzz. Under age 2: those two only, in very small amounts.
Sourcing & making
Every jar in this line is the same base: organic shea butter, lab-tested hemp seed oil, genuine Zechstein magnesium chloride, deuterium-depleted distilled water, MSM, and beeswax. The magnesium is bischofite, solution-mined from a Permian salt bed roughly 1,600 meters under the Netherlands, not built as a synthetic salt. Beeswax holds the water and butter phases together, so there is no synthetic emulsifier in it. Blended in small batches and poured into a 3 oz jar when you order.
Full ingredients
- 100% Pure Organic White/Yellow Shea Butter
- Lab Tested Hemp Seed Oil
- Genuine Zechstein Magnesium Chloride

- Essential Oil Blend
Who it's for — and who it isn't
Good fit for:
- Adults with a bedtime that already holds who want the evening to land softer
- People stepping down from Sleep X-Treme once the pattern is set
- Households that want one mild evening jar the whole family can share
Probably not for you if:
- You react to fragrance or specific botanicals. Email us and we'll tell you exactly which oils are in this blend.
- You're avoiding bee products, shea, or hemp.
- You're counting on a lotion to replace oral magnesium. It won't. Count capsules.
Testing & quality
Every product is lab tested. Certificates of analysis on request, about a 2-week turnaround.
The research behind the ingredients
Published research on the ingredients in this product, for education. These studies were not conducted on this product.
Valerian (Valeriana officinalis) oil / root
Valerian root and sleep meta-analysis, 2020
Journal of Evidence-Based Integrative Medicine · 2020 · meta-analysis · n=60 studies, 6,894 participants
A systematic review and meta-analysis of 60 studies in 6,894 people found oral valerian root preparations improved subjective sleep quality and reduced anxiety scores with inconsistent results attributed to variable extract quality, and reported no severe adverse events in people aged 7 to 80.
Genuine Zechstein Magnesium Chloride (magnesium)
Magnesium and sleep-onset meta-analysis, 2021
BMC Complementary Medicine and Therapies · 2021 · meta-analysis · n=3 RCTs, 151 participants
A meta-analysis of three randomized trials in 151 older adults found oral magnesium shortened time taken to fall asleep by 17.36 minutes versus placebo (p=0.0006), with no significant change in total sleep time and low-to-very-low quality underlying evidence.
Genuine Zechstein Magnesium Chloride (transdermal magnesium)
Effect of transdermal magnesium cream on serum and urinary magnesium levels in humans: A pilot study
PLOS ONE · 2017 · RCT · n=25 enrolled, 24 completed
In a single-blind, parallel-group pilot trial of 25 adults, applying a magnesium cream supplying 56 mg of magnesium daily for two weeks raised serum magnesium by 8.54% versus 2.6% with placebo, reaching statistical significance only in the non-athlete subgroup.
Evidence note: Valerian has a meta-analysis of 60 studies in nearly 6,900 people behind subjective sleep quality, and magnesium a small meta-analysis behind falling asleep about 17 minutes faster. Both used oral preparations, and both sets of authors call for better-standardized extracts and larger trials. Valerian oil applied to skin is the open question; at one drop, it is the scent of the jar.
FAQ
Should I start with this one or Sleep X-Treme?
If your bedtime is still shaky, start with X-Treme and move to this jar once the pattern holds. If your evenings are already steady, start here.
How much valerian is in it?
One drop per jar, against ten in Sleep X-Treme. That's the only stated difference between the two, and it's the reason this one is the nightly jar rather than the rebuilding jar.
How much magnesium gets through skin?
Research is still catching up. One pilot trial saw serum magnesium rise after two weeks of a magnesium cream; a 2017 review called for bigger studies. People use it for how it feels on tired muscles and skin; we count capsules as the reliable magnesium number.
Why did my jar separate?
No fillers and no heavy emulsifier, so the water and butter phases drift apart, faster in a warm bathroom. Sit the jar in hot water about 20 minutes, then remix with a milk frother. Repeat if it's still firm. Nothing is wrong with it.
Can kids use it? What about pregnancy?
Josh's family uses these on adults and older kids, and uses only the Zanex Swap or Sleep Zzz blends, in small amounts, for under-2s and in pregnancy. That's house practice, not a safety clearance.
Pairs well with
- That ALL Night Sleep X-Treme — the heavier jar for rebuilding a pattern
- Magnesium Bis-Glycinate — the evening magnesium you can actually count
- That ALL Day Zanex Swap — the other house blend, earlier in the evening
Cautions
- For external use only. Keep it away from the eyes and mucous membranes, and off broken or freshly shaved skin, where magnesium chloride commonly stings.
- Store cool and dry, out of a steamy bathroom. Separation is normal in a filler-free lotion; rewarm and remix rather than assuming it spoiled. Use within 12 months of opening.
Lab Tested
Every product. COA on request, ~2 weeks.
Made Fresh to Order
Small batches, poured when you order, not warehoused.
