Sleep Tight Magnesium Body Butter

$22.00

The nightly rub that tells your body it is time to shut down. A magnesium body butter for tired legs and a busy mind.

Warm a scoop and massage it into tired legs, calves, and feet before bed. It melts in smooth and never feels chalky. Work it in slowly as you wind down for the night. A warm citrus and soft wood blend stays close to the skin.

We whip properly rendered beef tallow with magnesium chloride for slow, overnight absorption. Fractionated coconut oil adds easy glide, and beeswax seals it in. Magnesium chloride supports evening calm and eases tired muscles.

Early on you may notice a mild warmth or tingle, a normal cue to pause and breathe. Make it the last step before you turn out the light. No parabens, phthalates, or fillers.

PURE ESSENTIAL OILS

Our proprietary essential oil blend is crafted specifically to support rest and relaxation at the end of the day. Soft citrus notes from bergamot (FCF) gently lift the blend at first breath, helping release mental tension without feeling bright or energizing. As the scent settles, warm layers of benzoin, atlas cedarwood, and sandalwood emerge, creating a grounded, comforting aroma that feels steady and reassuring rather than heavy.

Balanced with subtle vanilla oleoresin, the blend stays close to the skin and fades slowly, encouraging the body to unwind naturally. When paired with topical magnesium, this calming aroma helps create a quiet, intentional moment of application — allowing you to slow down, breathe deeply, and give your body time to absorb and respond as part of a nightly wind-down ritual.

It assists me greatly in relaxing and getting restful sleep

While speaking with a friend about trouble I was having with sleeping, due to restless legs and insomnia, I received some advice which has helped me. He recommended using Moose’s Whipped Tallow's “Sleep Tight” which is infused with Magnesium. So I tried it and have found it to assist me greatly in relaxing and getting restful sleep. I apply it to both of my legs prior to getting in bed and find it assists me in falling asleep and also in relaxing the muscles in my legs. I highly recommend this product.

Greatly reduced my leg cramps while sleeping

I'm definitely sleeping better these days and wish I could've found Moose's Whipped Tallow "Sleep Tight Magnesium Body Butter" 10 years ago. This product has really helped with my restless legs in the evenings. It also has greatly reduced my leg cramps while sleeping at night. Thank you for a lot less sleepless nights.

I'll never be caught without this on hand

I've been using Sleep Tight to aid me in my battle against insomnia - I'll never be caught without this on hand again, it's become a staple of my nighttime routine. I also love the subtle herby scent.

I truly feel it helps my children

First and foremost I love the texture and smell of the sleep tight. It’s got a great first impression with the texture and smell!

Second I truly feel it helps my children, mainly my four year old calm down. Bedtime can be the time of day he feels the most “uppity” ….
I take it in my hands and rub it onto their necks and shoulders and chest. Not sure if I’m using it correctly but it’s been working great for us! I also like to use it for myself on the bottom of my feet. It calms me down AND helps with my calluses!!
Knowing that it’s truly beneficial, smells great, AND is all natural makes my mommy heart feel warm.

I slept really comfortable

I’ve always known about natural resources to help with your body’s! but I neverreally have gotten around to trying any, until now! I applied it on my neck, back, risks and my legs and I must say I slept really comfortable and when I woke up the next morning still felt comfortable i’m very impressed!

Perfect addition to my night time routine

This calming magnesium lotion is the perfect addition to my night time routine.

Rubs the tension away

Smells wonderful and has a smooth cream consistency. I rub it behind my neck before I go to bed because that's typically where I have the most tension. It has definitely been a game changer.

I am able to sleep without restless legs

Wonderful success with your product. I deal with diabetes and leg problems at night and since I’ve been using it, I have not had the issues like I used to. And I am able to sleep without restless leg syndrome or neuropathy probably about 90% of the pain is gone.

I didn’t expect this to work this well

My neck and shoulders get tight at night and I just lay there. I wasn’t sure about a magnesium tallow balm, but I liked the regular lotion for my hands, so it felt worth a try.

I rubbed some into my shoulders before bed. It felt a little warm, smelled good, and after a while I noticed I wasn’t as tense. I actually fell asleep faster than usual.

It soaked in better than I expected. I didn’t think tallow would make that much of a difference, but I’ve been using it every night since.

I love this for a good night's rest

Absolutely love this product! I apply to feet and calves and sleep like a baby! Highly recommended it!

great stuff

helping with leg pain

I’ve been sleeping through the night

I tried Sleep Tight because a friend had success with it. My lower back had been bothering me for months, and I noticed a difference pretty quickly. It helps me relax and drift off to sleep faster, and I’ve been sleeping through the night more consistently. I also really liked the scent. It’s a little woodsy, which was a nice change since I’m not a fan of the lavender in so many nighttime remedies.

It really helps me sleep

Chronic insomnia has plagued me for years. A little bit of this tallow on my neck area before bed allows me to get solid sleep. Thank you!

Your body will thank you for buying this.

I have used magnesium lotion bedore for muscles soreness and sleep. When I saw it in the tallow I knew I had to try it. It is amazing! A little goes a long way. I definitely will be buying this on a regular bases.

I love this tallow! The smell is so gentle and nice(I have a very sensitive smell)

I love this tallow!
The smell is so gentle and nice(I have a very sensitive smell). I must be honest I was skeptic about it, because I already ordered tallow from a different company and didn’t really see the results. But I must say this one actually works. My toddler had a very dry skin on her legs and my oldest daughter had eczema on her hands, after using it on their skin it got so much better. My toddler’s skin became just normal and I suck at being regular so it’s not used daily 🙌🏻
Definitely recommend it!

Absolutely incredible product!! Love everything I have and highly recommend to anyone! Leaves skin so soft and hydrated.

Key Ingredients

Magnesium Chloride Magnesium ChlorideA pure mineral form of magnesium, drawn from the ancient Zechstein seabed deep underground, away from modern pollution. On the skin, magnesium is known for its calming, restful feel. We fold it into our Sleep Tight butter to help the body wind down at night.
Beef Tallow Beef TallowRendered from high-quality beef suet, sourced locally when we can. It is naturally rich in skin-friendly fats and the vitamins A, D, E, and K. Because it mirrors your skin's own oils, it absorbs clean and holds moisture without feeling greasy. A simple, time-tested base with nothing synthetic.
Calming Essential Oil Blend Calming Essential Oil BlendAn in-house blend made only from pure essential oils. It layers warm sandalwood and cedarwood with soft frankincense and a touch of vanilla, for a grounded, restful aroma. We use it in Sleep Tight to help signal the end of the day.
Beeswax BeeswaxMade naturally by honeybees, from local beekeepers in Lebanon and Lancaster Counties, Pennsylvania. It has protected and conditioned skin for generations. In our balms it adds gentle structure and a light protective layer that seals in moisture, without feeling heavy.
Fractionated Coconut Oil (MCT) Fractionated Coconut Oil (MCT)A light, pure oil made from coconut, also called MCT oil. It is built from stable medium-chain fats, so it absorbs fast and stays fresh. It helps balms and butters glide on smoothly and sink in, leaving a silky, non-greasy finish.

Family Owned Whipped Tallow Body Butter Business

Why I Started Making Tallow Skincare

Hi, my name is Brian, though around here I don’t mind being called Moose.

I’ve learned most of what I know about skincare from the women in my life, especially my wife and our four daughters. Moose’s Tallow has truly been a family project from the beginning.

I started making tallow skincare after a serious health scare forced me to rethink everything I put in my body. Once I focused on real ingredients, another question came up: if what we eat matters that much… what about what we put on our skin?

With a busy home full of people I love, that question mattered a lot. When my daughters told me they were already using tallow for skincare, I decided to learn how to make it myself.

What started as a small project for my family eventually turned into something much bigger.
