Made with food grade magnesium chloride and infused with essential oils of ylang ylang, patchouli, and rose geranium, the cream delivers a light herbal aroma that is cosy, comforting, and deeply relaxing. Special herbal extracts act as a natural antibacterial preservative, ensuring freshness without synthetic chemicals or petrochemical ingredients.

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.

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.
Designed and developed by our formulating chemist Peter Sanderson way back in 2009, Elektra Magnesium Cream was a ground-breaking innovative achievement.
The Herbal version was the first of its kind that combined several plant oils, butters and extracts successfully with infusion of 15% magnesium chloride. It was stabilized using novel processes, and without resorting to chemical emulsifiers and preservatives such as phenoxyethanol, dimethicone, parabens or other cheap toxic petrochemical ingredients. Elektra Magnesium Creams features over 20 nutritious ingredients and provide high fat content to protect the skin barrier and facilitate efficient transdermal magnesium absorption. It is still Australia's most popular and best loved magnesium cream, packed full of nutrition and easy to absorb for skin barrier protection, moisturisation, and smoother, refined, and more youthful looking skin.
The original and still the best since 2009!

Natural anti-ageing skin care
Magnesium skin care is a revolution in skin health and beauty maintenance. One of the reasons magnesium keeps us younger and more ‘juicy’ longer is because it is used to synthesize collagen, which is a protein scaffolding that forms structures to hold moisture and other nutrients in skin, nails and bones to organs, muscles, ligaments, cartilage, lung sacs and blood vessels…(Read more)
Benefits of MAGNESIUM MASSAGE to relax, recharge and recover.
Magnesium massage therapy offers important health benefits via blood and lymph circulation, waste clearance and detoxification, as well as relief of tension, stress and pain, which alleviates inflammation and promotes faster recovery from injury. Studies have shown that when magnesium is low, too much calcium settles in the soft tissue (muscles, ligaments, skin and endothelial linings) or joints of the body, causing stiffening via hypercalcemia. Athletes can be more prone to magnesium deficiency due to the excessive stresses of endurance exercise. Hypercalcemia and magnesium deficiency lengthens time of healing from injury and inflammation, whereas sufficient magnesium can support recovery faster. Magnesium massage promotes better circulation, flexibility and muscle recovery.
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.

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.
