MSM is the sulfur in this jar. In a randomized trial of half-marathon runners, 3 g a day lowered post-race muscle and joint pain scores by a clinically meaningful margin. Here it sits in a Zechstein magnesium base, rubbed into whatever you're about to work.
For people who train, lift, or need a sharper second half of the afternoon. One 3 oz jar.
- Zechstein Magnesium
- MSM
- Organic Shea Butter
- Lab Tested Hemp Seed Oil
- No Fillers
Why people use it
- Rub it where you're working. If you're using this for circulation reasons, apply it topically to any region you are looking to move, exercise, or do therapy on.
- MSM after hard effort. In a randomized trial of half-marathon runners, 3 g a day of oral MSM lowered post-race muscle and joint pain scores. That's why the sulfur is in this base.
- Built for the gym floor. The Pump lotion is one I designed around all my days lifting as a personal trainer and exercise science, Physical Therapy, etc. This lotion is geared towards circulation, energy, focus, and lifting your spirits. It will stimulate the beginning, and then it's up to you to let your mind be driven, your body to be pushed, or both. Sometimes just getting the blood pumping and the mind stimulated is all you need to hit the ground running.
- Same base as the rest. Our entire lineup of Magnesium and MSM Lotions has a base of mostly shea butter, hemp seed oil, Zechstein magnesium, and MSM, so you can use any of them topically to support pain, discomfort, tight muscles, joint issues, low magnesium, cramps, energy, and so much more. There is about 280 mg of magnesium in each teaspoon of lotion.
- Magnesium relaxes tissues, so applying this lotion to any areas with pain, discomfort, tension, etc., should support them. Magnesium is responsible for 3,751 proteins/enzymes, and therefore we can expect using this lotion will support those.
- Straight past the gut. Magnesium is also used to make every unit of our energy, so using it topically skips the digestive tract and deposits the magnesium directly into our blood. This is extremely helpful for those who can't handle much magnesium orally.
- What clients tell us. Many clients report feedback about the support it gives to their skin, energy, gut, anxiety, irritability, and overall mood, amongst other things.
What you're getting (approximate)
Per 1 teaspoon (topical). Applied to the skin, so this is the magnesium in each teaspoon of lotion, not an oral dose.

How to use
- BY POPULAR DEMAND, ALL of our Magnesium/MSM lotions come in High Potency for the same low price. Get all the best benefits in any of our lotions.
- If using this for circulation reasons, apply it topically to any region you are looking to move, exercise, or do therapy on.
- We recommend using it around your chest for the aromatic side or on the bottom of your feet for maximum absorption throughout the entire body.
- Most absorptive areas of the body: bottom of the feet hits the entire body for men and women. Thighs are the second most absorptive spot for women. Forearms are the second most absorptive spot for men. Use these if you need to use more lotion and the feet or other areas are already covered.
- Start with a thin layer, a teaspoon or less. A little goes a long way.
- Patch test a small area and give it 24 hours before you make it a daily habit.
- All of our Magnesium/MSM Lotions are safe for any adult to use. They should also be safe for just about any 5-12 year old. For our children under 2 years old, we normally only use the Zanex or Sleep Zzz in very small amounts. Zanex and Sleep Zzz are the only lotions we recommend for pregnancy, but all the lotions are safe for breastfeeding.
- These lotions last a long time, but since I use absolutely no fillers, it's best to warm the lotion back up and mix it back together from time to time if you aren't using all the lotion before it separates. This will happen more often if the lotion is stored in a bathroom setting where temperatures fluctuate. Set the jar in a bowl of hot water for 20 minutes at a time until it melts down, then mix it with a milk frother. Sometimes you'll have to warm it up more than once to get it soft enough to mix. Generally, keep it stored in a cool, dry place and mix it back together if it does separate. For potency, use this lotion within 12 months of opening it.
Sourcing & making
Every jar in this line is the same base: organic shea butter, lab-tested hemp seed oil, genuine Zechstein magnesium chloride, my deuterium-depleted distilled water, MSM, and beeswax. The only difference between the lotions is the essential oil blend in each one. Beeswax holds the water and butter phases together, so there is no synthetic emulsifier in it.

Published research on the ingredients in this product, for education. These studies were not conducted on this product.
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.
MSM (methylsulfonylmethane)
Journal of the International Society of Sports Nutrition · 2017 · RCT · n=22 completed
In a double-blind, placebo-controlled randomized trial of 22 half-marathon runners, 3 g/day of MSM for 21 days before and two days after the race reduced post-race muscle and joint pain by a clinically meaningful margin that did not reach statistical significance, with no change in oxidative-stress or muscle-damage markers.
MSM (methylsulfonylmethane)
Methylsulfonylmethane: Applications and Safety of a Novel Dietary Supplement
Nutrients · 2017 · mechanistic review
A peer-reviewed review of the human and animal literature reported that MSM is well tolerated at up to four grams daily and that human trials show lower pain scores and reduced markers of protein oxidation, lipid peroxidation and creatine kinase after exertion.
Evidence note: MSM is the best-supported ingredient here: a randomized placebo-controlled trial in half-marathon runners plus a review of human oxidative-stress data, both using oral MSM at gram doses. Transdermal magnesium rests on one 25-person pilot. Circulation, focus and 'pump' outcomes remain to be studied for a topical.
FAQ
Is this a pre-workout?
It's a topical. A scented magnesium and MSM lotion people rub on before training, for the cue and for the base.
Where do people apply it?
On whatever they're about to work - quads, shoulders, low back - plus a little on the chest so the scent carries. Some people go back over the same areas afterward.
How much magnesium gets through skin?
A randomized trial saw serum magnesium rise after two weeks of daily magnesium cream. People use it for how it feels on tired muscles and skin - work it into a shoulder, a calf, or the bottoms of the feet.
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?
All of our Magnesium/MSM Lotions are safe for any adult to use. They should also be safe for just about any 5-12 year old. For our children under 2 years old, we normally only use the Zanex or Sleep Zzz in very small amounts. Zanex and Sleep Zzz are the only lotions we recommend for pregnancy, but all the lotions are safe for breastfeeding.
Pairs well with
- That ALL Day Recovery + — the jar for after
- That ALL Day Deep Tissue — same idea, stronger
- Magnesium Malate — the daytime magnesium you can actually count

- 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.
- Generally, keep it stored in a cool, dry place and mix it back together if it does separate. Separation is normal since I use absolutely no fillers; rewarm and remix rather than assuming it spoiled. For potency, use this lotion within 12 months of opening it.
