TRANSDERMAL VS. ORAL MAGNESIUM
- by Roxy Marrone
As part of our Healing Girl Summer series, we're diving deep into magnesium – one of the most underrated wellness minerals. Should you take it or wear it? Here's the science behind how your body absorbs it best.
Spray + Swipe your supplements on, don’t JUST swallow them.
You might be sipping magnesium powders, popping pills, or stirring sachets into your smoothies - but did you know your skin might be the best delivery system of all?
We’re breaking down the science behind why applying your magnesium topically isn’t just easier - it’s more effective.
Enter: transdermal magnesium. Your new skin-deep bio-hack for hormone balance, better sleep, and your nervous system reset for the inside-out glow that might be more effective than your pills!
Why Magnesium Matters
Magnesium is the ultimate multitasker. It supports over 600 biochemical reactions in the body and is essential for:
- Hormone health
- Energy production
- Muscle recovery
- Nervous system regulation
- Better sleep
- Reduced stress and anxiety
Yet, up to 80% of people are magnesium deficient, and even if you’re supplementing orally, your body might not actually be absorbing enough.
Here’s why the way you take your magnesium matters.
What is Transdermal Magnesium and why is BETTER than pills?
Transdermal means absorption through the skin, and in this case, it's more bio-available this way!
Most oral magnesium supplements have to take the long road:
- Swallowed
- Digested in the stomach
- Processed by the liver
- Absorbed into the bloodstream (only partially)
The issue?
- Many supplements don’t survive digestion
- Bioavailability (how much your body actually absorbs) is often low
- Gut issues can block absorption
- It takes time to feel the effects
In short, you're spending time (and money) on a supplement that your body might not even be using properly.
The Skin = Your Secret Weapon
Your skin isn’t just a barrier. It’s a smart, living organ that absorbs certain nutrients directly into your bloodstream-skipping the gut entirely.
A study by the University of Cardiff showed that magnesium absorbed through the skin (aka transdermal magnesium) had accelerated absorption and quicker results vs oral supplementation. And with just a short massage post-application, absorption increases significantly.
That means no waiting around. No added junk. No bloating. No forgotten pills. Just fast-track results.
Why Transdermal Magnesium is a Bio-Hacking Gamechanger
Here’s what it helps with (and quickly):
- Period cramps + muscle pain
- Sleep + glymphatic detox
- Hormone production
- Stress + nervous system support
- Energy levels + blood sugar balance
- Skin glow + hydration
It’s not just magnesium - it’s transformation through the skin.
Meet eyeam’s Bi-Phase Magnesium Body Spray
We created our Magnesium Bi-Phase Body Treatment Spray to supercharge your body care with supplement-level results.
This isn’t your average spray. It’s:
- A bi-phase formula that mimics your cells’ natural oil + water structure
- Packed with magnesium chloride, chlorophyll, Resveratox, Calmandarin, and Red Velvet Oil (Lycopene)
- Designed to reduce inflammation, balance hormones, and energise your skin + cells
🔁 Water Phase = Detox, tone, and reduce inflammation
💧 Lipid Phase = Deep hydration, antioxidant protection, and vitamin delivery
Together? They work in harmony to get magnesium (and a powerhouse of other actives) exactly where your body needs it - fast.
What About Sleep?
That’s where our Glymphatic Sleepy Butter comes in: a magnesium-lavender-chlorophyll infused butter that supports the glymphatic system - the brain’s natural detox mode that activates while you sleep.
🧠 Why does that matter?
Your brain clears waste only while you’re asleep, and low glymphatic activity has been linked to Alzheimer’s, poor sleep quality, and brain fog. Our butter helps support detox, hormone harmony, and next-level rest.
Magnesium + lavender = sleep magic.
Why Transdermal Magnesium Wins?
Oral Magnesium < Transdermal Magnesium
Low absorption < High absorption
Delayed effect < Instant bioavailability
Gut-dependent < Bypasses digestion
Easy to forget < Feels like a self-care ritual
Ready to Glow from the Outside In?
Start with our Bi-Phase Magnesium Body Spray during the day, and layer the Glymphatic Sleepy Butter at night. It’s time to turn your supplement routine into a skin ritual.
Because good skin, better sleep, and deep hormone support shouldn’t be swallowed - they should be sprayed, smoothed, and absorbed.
