That ALL Day PRESSURE In My Veins Magnesium/MSM Lotion - Blood Pressure
Regular price
$36.77
Reduce mucus and inflammation...
Neroli is one of the most-studied calming aromas there is. A 44-trial meta-analysis found inhaled citrus oils settle heart rate and support relaxed circulatory tone, and ranked this one first. That's the oil in this jar, on our Zechstein magnesium and MSM base.
For adults who want a calming scent close at hand in the evening or the middle of a hard day. One 3 oz jar.
- 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
- Neroli is why this jar costs more. Distilled from bitter orange blossom, it's one of the most expensive essential oils there is, and it's the front of this blend.
- Helps maintain blood pressure already within the normal range. Two lines of research sit behind this jar: a 44-trial network meta-analysis of inhaled essential oils (Citrus aurantium ranked first; about -6.8 mmHg systolic across trials), and two meta-analyses of magnesium supplementation (roughly -2 to -4 mmHg systolic). See the research drop-down for what was studied and how.
- Chest, not feet, for this one. The whole point is the scent. Josh's direction is around the chest so it stays close, with 10 to 30 minutes being the window those trials found most consistent.
- Same base underneath. Zechstein magnesium chloride and MSM in organic shea butter and lab-tested hemp seed oil, identical to every other jar.
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, mostly neroli | Neroli, steam-distilled from bitter orange blossom, is the front of this blend and the reason for the price. The rest of the blend isn't listed on this page yet. |
Count capsules as your magnesium number.
How to use
- Thin layer across the chest so the scent sits close. That's the intended use of this jar.
- Give it 10 to 30 minutes with your breathing slowed. That's the exposure window the inhalation trials found most consistent.
- 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.

Who it's for — and who it isn't
Good fit for:
- Adults who want an aromatic reset in the middle or at the end of a demanding day
- People who already know they respond to citrus-blossom scents
- Anyone building a sit-down-and-breathe habit and wanting a scent to anchor it
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.

The research behind the ingredients
Published research on the ingredients in this product, for education. These studies were not conducted on this product.
Neroli (Citrus aurantium) essential oil, inhaled
Neroli blend inhalation randomized trial, 2025
Medical Sciences · 2025 · RCT · n=54
In a randomized controlled trial of 54 children aged 6-11, inhaling a lavender-neroli oil mixture for five minutes lowered anxiety scores (p=0.001), heart rate, systolic (p=0.038) and diastolic (p=0.013) blood pressure and pain scores (p=0.042) compared with a no-aroma control.
Neroli / bitter orange (Citrus aurantium) essential oil, inhaled
Citrus aurantium aroma network meta-analysis, 2023
Frontiers in Public Health · 2023 · meta-analysis · n=44 RCTs, 3,419 participants
A network meta-analysis of 44 randomized trials in 3,419 people found essential-oil aromatherapy reduced systolic blood pressure by 6.83 mmHg and heart rate by 3.43 bpm alongside lower anxiety-inventory scores, and ranked Citrus aurantium (bitter orange/neroli) essential oil the most recommended oil for trait anxiety.
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.
Magnesium (oral supplementation — reference evidence; no trial of topical magnesium on blood pressure exists)
Magnesium and blood pressure meta-analysis, 2016
Hypertension · 2016 · meta-analysis of randomized double-blind placebo-controlled trials · n=34 trials, 2,028 participants
Pooling 34 randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trials in 2,028 adults, oral magnesium supplementation at a median dose of 368 mg/day for a median of 3 months reduced systolic blood pressure by 2.00 mmHg and diastolic blood pressure by 1.78 mmHg versus placebo, alongside a 0.05 mmol/L rise in serum magnesium.
Magnesium (oral supplementation — reference evidence; no trial of topical magnesium on blood pressure exists)
Oral magnesium blood pressure meta-analysis, 2017
The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition · 2017 · meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials · n=11 trials, 543 participants
Across 11 randomized controlled trials in 543 adults with insulin resistance, prediabetes or other noncommunicable chronic conditions, oral magnesium supplementation for a mean of 3.6 months lowered systolic blood pressure by 4.18 mmHg and diastolic blood pressure by 2.27 mmHg compared with control.
Evidence note: Two lines of evidence sit behind this jar. Inhaled neroli and citrus oils have human trial data: a randomized inhalation trial and a 44-trial network meta-analysis in which Citrus aurantium ranked first, with inhaled essential oils lowering systolic pressure about 6.8 mmHg over 10-30 minutes of exposure. Oral magnesium has modest, well-documented blood-pressure data: about 2.0/1.8 mmHg across 34 double-blind placebo-controlled trials (n=2,028), and about 4.2/2.3 mmHg in 11 trials in people with insulin resistance or prediabetes. Those magnesium trials used capsules, and the one human cream pilot (Kass 2017, n=25) measured an 8.5% serum rise that reached significance in the non-athlete subgroup. The oral meta-analyses are here as background on the mineral.
FAQ
Do the magnesium studies apply to a lotion?
Those meta-analyses used oral magnesium, so read them as what the mineral does in the body. Research on how much magnesium crosses skin is still catching up. Count capsules as your magnesium number and buy this jar for the neroli and the base.
What does neroli actually do?
It smells like orange blossom. Inhaled citrus oils have been studied for a calm, settled response, and neroli ranked first among the oils in a 44-trial meta-analysis. Those effects were modest, short-term, and measured in clinic settings. Use it as a scent cue.
Why is this jar more expensive than the others?
Neroli. It takes an enormous volume of bitter orange blossom to distill a small amount of oil, and this blend is mostly neroli. Same base, same 3 oz jar, costlier oil.
I take medication. Does this change anything?
No. This is a scented cosmetic lotion. Don't change or stop anything a prescriber has you on because of it, and don't use it in place of anything. Questions about your prescriptions go to your prescriber.
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.
Pairs well with
- That ALL Day Zanex Swap — the other calming blend, at a lower price
- That ALL Night Sleep Zzz — for the end of the same evening
- Magnesium Bis-Glycinate — the reliable magnesium number
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.
