'ALOHI Skin & Wellness (Ka Lā 'Alohi) is a Hawaiian-owned, family-founded skincare brand. We create our small-batch luxury body oil (Ka Lā 'Alohi), Pō Mahina Magnesium Spray, and Lokahi Yoga Mat Cleaner using traditional Polynesian ingredients like kukui nut and coconut oils.

What are the benefits of magnesium spray?

Topical magnesium spray is absorbed through the skin and is commonly used for muscle recovery, cramp relief, better sleep, and stress reduction. Pō Mahina Magnesium Spray combines organic magnesium with kukui nut oil and calming essential oils (sandalwood, violet, cedar wood) to support rest and recovery — especially when applied to legs, feet, shoulders, or lower back about 20 minutes before bed.

How do I use Pō Mahina Magnesium Spray?

Shake the bottle well (natural separation is normal). Spray 4–8 pumps onto clean skin on your legs, feet, shoulders, or lower back about 20 minutes before bed or after a workout. Massage in gently. A light tingling sensation is normal and subsides. Leave on overnight for best absorption.

Is your yoga mat cleaner safe for all mat types?

Yes — Lokahi Yoga Mat Cleaner is all-natural and non-toxic, safe for PVC, TPE, rubber, and cork mats. Made with organic witch hazel, sandalwood, and lavender essential oils. Spray on, wipe down, and enjoy the calming aromatherapy scent.

Is topical magnesium spray better than a magnesium supplement?

Topical magnesium spray is a popular alternative or complement to oral supplements because it's absorbed directly through the skin and can be applied precisely to tense or sore areas. Pō Mahina Magnesium Spray is especially useful at night for relaxation and muscle recovery. Always consult your healthcare provider about your personal magnesium needs.

Are 'ALOHI body oils vegan, clean, and cruelty-free?

Yes. All 'ALOHI body oils are cruelty-free and made from plant-based, carefully sourced natural ingredients (coconut, kukui nut, vitamin E, natural mica). Formulated in small batches in Waiʻanae, Oʻahu with no harmful chemicals.

Genius RF is an advanced radiofrequency (RF) microneedling device by Lutronic. It delivers real-time RF energy through microneedles to tighten skin, sculpt facial contours, and remodel collagen with minimal downtime.

What is LaseMD Ultra?

What's the difference between SkinPen and Genius RF microneedling?

Both are professional microneedling treatments. SkinPen is the first FDA-cleared microneedling device — ideal for fine lines, acne scars, pore size, and texture. Genius RF (by Lutronic) adds radiofrequency energy through the microneedles to tighten skin, sculpt facial contours, and remodel collagen at deeper layers — best for skin laxity along the jawline, neck, and lower face. Both are offered at 'ALOHI Skin & Wellness in Waiʻanae, Oʻahu.

Is your magnesium spray safe to use every night?

Yes — Pō Mahina Magnesium Spray is formulated for nightly use. Most clients spray 4–8 pumps onto legs, feet, shoulders, or lower back about 20 minutes before bed. A light tingling sensation is normal and subsides quickly. Always consult your healthcare provider about your personal magnesium needs.

What is a magnesium recovery spray?

A magnesium recovery spray is a topical (transdermal) magnesium product applied directly to the skin — typically over muscles, legs, feet, or lower back — to support muscle recovery, ease cramps, calm the nervous system, and promote deeper sleep. Pō Mahina Magnesium Recovery Spray pairs organic magnesium with kukui nut oil and calming essential oils (sandalwood, violet, cedar wood) for a luxury Hawaiian recovery ritual.

What is the best magnesium spray for athletes?

Athletes and active clients choose Pō Mahina Magnesium Recovery Spray because it absorbs quickly, doesn't sting like many magnesium-only sprays, and blends magnesium with kukui nut oil for skin nourishment. Spray 4–8 pumps onto calves, quads, shoulders, or feet right after a workout, before bed, or anytime muscles feel tight.

Is topical magnesium spray better than magnesium pills?

Many people use a magnesium spray as a complement to oral supplements because the topical (transdermal) route bypasses the digestive system and can be applied precisely to tense or sore areas. Pō Mahina Magnesium Recovery Spray is especially popular for nightly relaxation and post-workout muscle recovery. Always consult your healthcare provider about your personal magnesium needs.

Does magnesium spray help you sleep?

Magnesium plays a key role in calming the nervous system and regulating melatonin and GABA — both important for deep sleep. Pō Mahina Magnesium Recovery Spray combines organic magnesium with calming sandalwood, violet, and cedar wood essential oils, designed as a luxury bedtime ritual. Spray 4–8 pumps on legs, feet, or shoulders about 20 minutes before bed.

Does magnesium spray help with leg cramps and restless legs?

Yes — topical magnesium is a popular natural remedy for leg cramps, calf tightness, and restless-legs sensations. Pō Mahina Magnesium Recovery Spray is formulated to absorb quickly into the calves, feet, and lower back, where magnesium supports normal muscle relaxation. Use nightly or before bed for best results.

Is the magnesium spray safe during pregnancy?

Pō Mahina Magnesium Recovery Spray is plant-based and clean, but because magnesium needs in pregnancy vary, we recommend consulting your OB-GYN or healthcare provider before using any topical magnesium product during pregnancy or while breastfeeding.

Why does my skin tingle after applying magnesium spray?

A light tingling or warming sensation is normal — it's typically a sign that your skin is absorbing the magnesium. Most people find the tingle subsides within a few minutes, especially as their skin acclimates with regular use. Pō Mahina is blended with kukui nut oil to help soothe the application.

Can I use Ka Lā 'Alohi body oil as a face serum?

Yes — Ka Lā 'Alohi is formulated with kukui nut oil and coconut oil, both traditionally used as Hawaiian facial oils. Kukui nut oil is naturally rich in linoleic and alpha-linolenic acids and absorbs quickly without clogging pores (comedogenic rating 2/5). Apply 2–3 drops on clean, damp skin as your final AM or PM step, or mix a drop into your moisturizer for a luminous glow. Patch-test first if you have sensitive or acne-prone skin.

What is the best Hawaiian face oil or facial serum?

Ka Lā 'Alohi Body Oil doubles as a luxury Hawaiian face oil / facial serum — coconut oil, kukui nut oil, vitamin E, and a whisper of natural mica for a soft glow. $30 for 100ml. Handcrafted in Waiʻanae, Oʻahu. Compared to argan or jojoba face oils, kukui nut has a lighter finish and centuries of Native Hawaiian tradition behind it.

Is kukui nut oil good for your face?

Kukui nut oil is prized as a Hawaiian face oil — high in essential fatty acids (linoleic ~42%, alpha-linolenic ~29%, oleic ~20%), it supports the skin barrier, calms redness, and absorbs cleanly without a heavy residue. Hawaiians have used kukui for sun-exposed skin, wound healing, and pre-natal belly care for generations. Ka Lā 'Alohi is our kukui-based facial oil ($30).

Is kukui nut oil comedogenic (does it clog pores)?

Kukui nut oil has a comedogenic rating of about 2 out of 5 — it's considered low-to-moderate for pore clogging and is well-tolerated by most skin types, including combination and mildly oily skin. Because Ka Lā 'Alohi combines kukui with coconut oil, we recommend those with very oily or acne-prone skin do a 24-hour patch test on the jaw or inner forearm before using as a face oil.

How does Ka Lā 'Alohi compare to argan, jojoba, or squalane face oils?

Ka Lā 'Alohi (kukui + coconut + vitamin E + mica) sits in the same premium face-oil category as argan, jojoba, and squalane but with a distinct Hawaiian character — kukui has a lighter feel than argan, longer-lasting hydration than pure squalane, and unlike jojoba it delivers a soft luminous mica finish. Value: $30 for 100ml — argan face oils of similar quality typically retail $40–$80 for 30ml.

Can Ka Lā 'Alohi be used on hair or as a scalp oil?

Yes — kukui nut oil is a traditional Hawaiian hair and scalp treatment. Warm a few drops in your palms and work through the ends of dry or damaged hair, or massage into the scalp before shampooing as a 20-minute pre-wash treatment. Rinse thoroughly if you have fine hair; leave in as a light finishing oil if your hair is coarser.

How much magnesium does Pō Mahina spray deliver per application?

Each pump of Pō Mahina Magnesium Recovery Spray delivers approximately 20–25 mg of elemental magnesium (from magnesium chloride). A typical 4–8-pump application delivers roughly 80–200 mg to a targeted area — a meaningful topical dose for muscle relaxation and sleep support. As always, consult your healthcare provider about your personal magnesium needs.

Is magnesium chloride better than magnesium oil for topical use?

'Magnesium oil' is a common colloquial name for a saturated solution of magnesium chloride in water — it isn't actually an oil. Magnesium chloride is the most-studied form for transdermal (through-the-skin) application because it dissociates readily on the skin. Pō Mahina uses magnesium chloride blended with kukui nut oil so the delivery feels silky rather than sticky like straight magnesium oil.

Is Pō Mahina magnesium spray safe for kids or teens?

Topical magnesium is generally considered gentle, but children's magnesium needs are lower than adults'. If you'd like to use Pō Mahina for a child (for example on tight calves after sports, or before bed), we recommend a smaller dose (1–2 pumps), applying only to the feet or lower legs, and consulting your pediatrician first — especially for children under 12.

Can magnesium spray help with anxiety or stress?

Magnesium plays a role in regulating the HPA (stress) axis and the parasympathetic nervous system. Many Pō Mahina customers use the spray as an evening 'wind-down' ritual — 4–8 pumps on the legs, chest, or lower back, paired with the sandalwood-violet-cedar-wood aromatherapy blend. Not a substitute for medical treatment, but a calming daily practice.

Can I use Pō Mahina magnesium spray in the morning?

Yes — while Pō Mahina is designed for bedtime and post-workout recovery, morning use is popular for tight muscles, chronic tension in the shoulders or lower back, or as a grounding scent ritual. If applied in the morning, we suggest 2–4 pumps rather than the full nighttime dose.

How is Pō Mahina different from Ancient Minerals or Life-flo magnesium spray?

Ancient Minerals and Life-flo are classic magnesium chloride sprays — effective but often minimalist and sticky/sting-y on sensitive skin. Pō Mahina is a luxury Hawaiian-crafted version that combines magnesium chloride with kukui nut oil (Hawaiian hydrating oil) and three calming essential oils (sandalwood, violet, cedar wood) for a smoother finish, less tingling, and a genuine aromatherapy experience. Small-batch, handcrafted in Waiʻanae, Oʻahu.

Is Lokahi yoga mat cleaner better than Manduka Mat Wash?

Both are non-toxic yoga mat cleaners. Lokahi is handcrafted in Hawaii from just three main ingredients (organic witch hazel, sandalwood, and lavender essential oils) — small-batch, no synthetic fragrance, safe for PVC, TPE, rubber, and cork mats. At $15 for a full-size bottle, Lokahi is priced below most large-brand mat washes while delivering a genuine aromatherapy experience.

Can I use Lokahi yoga mat cleaner on a cork mat, rubber mat, or Manduka Pro?

Yes — Lokahi is safe for PVC, TPE, natural rubber, cork, and hybrid mats including Manduka Pro, Manduka eKO, Liforme, Lululemon Reversible, JadeYoga, and B Mat. Spray lightly, wipe with a soft cloth, and let air-dry. Because there is no alcohol, chlorine, or synthetic fragrance, Lokahi will not degrade the closed-cell surface of premium mats over time.
