Pour warm water into a glass bowl for safe mixing and easier handling.
Add magnesium chloride flakes slowly, stirring until fully dissolved and the liquid becomes clear.
Let the mixture cool completely to room temperature before handling further.
Add aloe vera gel or essential oils if using, and mix gently for even distribution.
Carefully transfer the liquid into a clean spray bottle using a funnel if needed.
