Earthley WellnessMagnesium Lotion, Parent's Picks Award-Winner, Magnesium Cream for Promoting Relaxation, Rest & Muscle Recovery, Natural, Non-Itchy, Fast-Absorbing Formula (6oz, Original Lavender)

I originally got this for my kids who are always on the go with sports—and now I use it too because my knees are not what they used to be! 😅 This magnesium lotion is a total lifesaver.I rub it on their legs at night, especially after games or during growth spurts, and they sleep like babies. It’s fast-absorbing, non-itchy, and doesn’t have that weird sticky feel like some others do.💪 Great for sore muscles and recovery🌙 Helps everyone wind down at night👶 Even soothes growing painsIt’s become a nightly ritual in our house—and one I’ll never skip!

My sister has some of this for her 1-year-old, and I was envious of the nice smell! I ended up ordering some for myself and not only does it smell great, but it actually has really improved my sleep instantly. I did some research beforehand because I know that some trendy sleep aids (like melatonin) aren't good for longterm use, but it seems like the only controversy is whether you even absorb much magnesium through the skin. And if the placebo effect is responsible, I honestly don't care. I usually wake up 3-4 times during the night on a GOOD night. When I use this lotion, it seems like I wake up once MAXIMUM, usually not at all. I don't know if it's the magnesium, the lovely smell, or placebo, but it doesn't matter to me as long as it works! I honestly might have given it 5 stars for the smell alone.That said, yes, it is an oily lotion. Which is why I don't use it as a hand creme but put it on my torso like the instructions suggest. It doesn't really moisturize, as it actually seems to leave the finger that I use to apply it feeling dry, but since that isn't why I'm using it, it isn't a big deal to me. I usually just use my favorite hand lotion after applying it to take care of the dryness on my finger/hand, and that's that. It doesn't really absorb quickly, so it's best to put it on, then wear a loose-fitting nightshirt so you don't get oil all over your sheets. This hasn't been an issue for me, but if you wear something with a tighter fit, it's worth noting. I personally would not apply it during the day due to this issue (I also don't know if it would help me sleep if not applied near bedtime, I haven't experimented).

Love this stuff!! It works great for my baby girl. She wasn’t sleeping more than 1-2hrs at a time at 6months old. The first night I used this, she slept 4 hours straight then another 4 hours after a quick feed!

My toddler and I both use this lotion at bedtime. I wanted to improve our sleep hygiene and someone recommended magnesium lotion. I haven’t noticed much of a difference in our sleep with the lotion, but it does smell great! I feel like I am at the spa when I put it on. It is very thick and I feel that it moisturizes well. It is somewhat hard to wash off your hands though. I recommend for the great smell and moisturizing effects. I also like that it is all natural. The reason I am giving a 4 star is because it doesn’t really improve our sleep as advertised.

Great to rub on legs at night to help with achy legs and restless legs. Goes on smooth, minimal scent.

We used this on our daughter for a long time. It does work wonders for her sleep wise. However, it ruined all of her pajamas and multiple comforters. It is very greasy and leaves a gross film on her pajamas that does not come off in the wash. Since it worked, I just went into it knowing that I would need to purchase pajamas more frequently and not to use the best comforter because it will get grease stained. Now that she’s older we are switching to a product that is less greasy.

This is literal magic. My 3 year old has been fighting sleep since she turned 2. She’s never asleep before 10pm, even when we tire her out. I put this on her after her bath (8pm). We did her bedtime routine (8:30pm) and she was out cold by 9pm! She didn’t yell for me or her dad once- usually she yells for us and jumps out of bed multiple times. She just laid in her bed, calm as can be- quite literally a miracle. No way this is a coincidence. I am in awe of this stuff!

Literally changed my life, I have never slept so amazing ever
