The way I use is mixing The flakes with boiling distilled water until flakes disappear,let it cool down. It becomes magnesium oil and you can rub it on you body. I don't recommend adding to city water because of chlorine and floride in water. I think grinding flakes in coffee grinder and mixing the powder with coconut oil with produce a wonderful body lotion with health benefits.

Why would you wanna add cocnut oil? Is there a purpose? B/c oil will just float on top of the water and wont mix with magnesium salt in the bath.

Just a heads-up: Coconut oil can build up and clog your drains, as it solidifies. (I 'oil pull' for dental benefits and have to spit it out in the trash). Agapé Nutrition's advice is spot-on (thanks!), Your skin will then absorb the coconut oil :>)

We have checked with the manufacture regarding your question. According the the manufacture, LL Magnetic Clay Inc., it is just fine to mix it with coconut oil. However, the magnesium does not necessarily mix well and therefore the pre-mixing may be messy and may not mix as expected. In addition, you may not get an even application or even soak of the magnesium. The manufacture suggests to use the bath minerals first in your soak, and then apply coconut oil afterwards, if needed for extra dermal hydration. The coconut oil may be applied to wet or dry skin after soaking, this may even assist in allowing for an additional moisture barrier after soaking. Enjoy!

I am sure it wil...the crystal melt slowly in water when I put them in a spray bottle for my all over body spray...so I would think in melted coconut oil (possibly warm it a little) would work fine.I spray mine 1/4 cup crystals in a cup of water all over after a shower then rub coconut oil over top all over.

I usually create a magnesium oil by pouring a cup of boiling water into a bowl, then add 3 tablespoons of the magnesium flakes. I then pour this mixture into the bath. If you add coconut oil it may be quite slippery. I like to rub the oil on my wet body after bathing. A little goes a long way.

No. This is a great product. A little expensive, so I've recently switched to coconut oil. You just warm it up in your hands, no water, and massage into your face to loosen make up. Then rinse with soap and water. Works just as well and is a lot less expensive. Best of luck

I would say "no". I have used these for a homemade solid deodorant. While the mixture was still liquid (waiting to solidify), the coconut oil component tended to leak out the bottom. I had to refrigerate them to prevent this. However, I imagine it would depend on the ingredients and the mixture's consistency.

It is soapy and creates bubbles when wet, so not sure it would work like an oil. I love coconut oil (unrefined) to use post shower.

Yes, but if you can use coconut oil or almond oil, it gives it more lubricating ability as well as a nice smell.

I do not believe so. This has been heated, no matter what they claim. Turns brown when melted (should be clear) and does not have coconut scent. This is OK for a body oil, but would not use it to cook with unless you can only afford this price. You get what you pay for with these oils and the bit more is well worth it. I use it for hands and to put in my dog's food. Good for dog's coat. Hope this helps to make a better choice.

Add a spoonful to hot clean bath water in the tub, after you bathe or shower, a natural bath oil...still messy , but for me better that trying to rub it on to every inch of my body, and I do want it on every inch! Good stuff.. Authentic African Shea Butter Pure Raw Unrefined From Ghana "GOLD" 16oz. CONTAINER

I do. I mix it with other carrier oils like olive oil, coconut oil, etc. I also mix in lavender essential oil.

Yes, I added the Relaxation one, along with lavender salts, to my bath this weekend and it was lovely. I added 10-20 drops to a full bath while it was filling up.

I'm not sure if this helps but I use lavender oil and water and it works great.

no, it contains coconut oil which will harden upon cooling. if you have a heater in the bathroom, sit it on there. it will remain liquefied, then just use as directed.

I have a similar set up and yes the product works when mixed in with the water in the bed as directed. Been doing this for many years now, with no undesirable effects to the waterbed.

Based on the inactive ingredients "Soap (refer to Product Details), Water, Coconut Acid, Petrolatum, Glycerin, Fragrance, Sodium Chloride, Titanium Dioxide, Trisodium HEDTA, Ultramarine Blue", this probably wouldn't be the best product for you. ^.^
