Magnesium is often referred to as the beauty mineral due to its numerous benefits for skin

 For the last 20 years, my focus has been on the importance of minerals for your body, starting with soaking in magnesium. I got so tired of spending so much money on expensive facial masks. It seems the older I get, the more susceptible I am to gimmicks and statistics that are made up on social media. I looked for a mask that included magnesium and zinc. It made me laugh that I ended up in the grocery store instead of Ulta or Sephora. The results have been nothing less than spectacular.
