That is interesting about the Nivea...
I think manufacturers are adding magnesium to lotions now.
I've read many ingredient lists on skin care products and magnesium never was commonly listed before. I've noticed that magnesium DOES help make the skin softer.
The way the FDA requires ingredient labeling is that the order
of the list, goes from highest to lowest in concentration.
So the Epsom lotion from CVS has magnesium sulfate FIRST...
The Nivea does not..in fact it is pretty far down the list.
Another hint is weight of the bottle. The Epsom lotion is VERY heavy for 8 oz. I can't test weight on the Nivea, but I would hazard a guess that it is not so heavy.
Still it is interesting to see some on that product. Thanks for bringing it here for all of us to share.
