Sale Terms & Conditions

Stock Availability During the Sale

Due to the high demand during our sale, some items may sell out or be oversold. This can happen when multiple customers are checking out at the same time for the same product.

If an item you purchased is oversold, we will issue a full refund for that item back to your original payment method. Please note that processing times for refunds may take longer during the sale, and it could take up to 10 business days to notify you of any oversold items.

Why do we need Magnesium?

Magnesium is an essential mineral for the healthy function of mind and body, is vital for normal muscle and nerve function and plays a key role in energy production. However, studies conducted worldwide have consistently shown a significant prevalence of magnesium deficiency in populations, with startling statistics observed in Australia. Reports indicate that 40% of individuals in Australia do not obtain sufficient dietary magnesium, and 70% of Australians are deficient in this mineral (ABS 2012).

Insufficient magnesium intake can result in various symptoms, including muscle cramps and spasms, restlessness, sleeplessness, headaches, migraines, and nervous tension. To address this issue, it is crucial to identify rich dietary sources of magnesium, such as tofu, legumes, whole grains, green leafy vegetables, wheat bran, Brazil nuts, soybean flour, almonds, cashews, blackstrap molasses, pumpkin seeds, and pine nuts. Additionally, peanuts, whole wheat flour, oat flour, beet greens, spinach, pistachio nuts, shredded wheat, bran cereals, oatmeal, bananas, and baked potatoes (with skin) can also contribute to magnesium intake.

Furthermore, the historical practice of bathing in mineral-rich waters to alleviate body ailments is noteworthy, as these natural waters often contain appreciable amounts of magnesium. During bathing, the skin can absorb magnesium, potentially aiding in addressing magnesium deficiencies and providing restorative benefits. This absorption contributes to replenishing magnesium levels in the body, supporting its normal functions, including muscle and nerve function.

Bathing in mineral-rich waters also offers a relaxing effect on both the body and mind. Immersion in warm water promotes muscle relaxation, relieves tension, and reduces stress, indirectly enhancing overall well-being. This relaxation response may alleviate symptoms associated with muscle cramps, spasms, restlessness, and nervous tension.

In cases where dietary intake or absorption through bathing is inadequate, magnesium supplements serve as an alternative method to increase magnesium levels in the body. By incorporating these supplements into your routine, you can effectively enhance overall magnesium intake and support the proper functioning of both mind and body.

Where are 39 Degrees products made?

All 39 Degrees Bath Tonics, Body Washes and Body Scrubs are made in Melbourne, Australia.

39 Degrees magnesium oil is suitable to use during pregnancy and breastfeeding.

Every pregnancy is unique and we urge you to consult your health care professional before using any products if you have concerns about their suitability.

Are 39 Degrees products safe for kids?

Yes. 39 Degrees products are 100% naturally derived and suitable to use on all skin types and ages. If you have sensitive skin, patch test first. If skin irritation occurs, discontinue use.

If your child’s bath is lower water volume or shallower than a full adult bath, then you only need to use a 50–70 mL of Bath Tonic instead of the 100 mL we recommend for a full-sized bath.

Do any 39 Degrees products contain palm oil?
