Pampering Mom: Self-Care Gifts for Mother’s Day
by Bettina Miski on May 04, 2023
In our rushing lives we often forget to celebrate one of the most important parts of our lives. Our moms. With Mother’s Day just around the corner, it’s time to prepare a special gift or day to show our love and appreciation for her. And what better way to celebrate than pampering them with some self-care and skincare gifts? And your precious time, of course. Whether your mom is a skincare enthusiast or you are just starting to influence her, these gift ideas will definitely help her relax, rejuvenate, and care for herself amidst her own busy schedule.
Take a Class Together
After we fly out of the nest, it can get hard to spend the same amount of time with our moms. And just being together becomes one of the best gifts we can think of. Does your mom have a hobby or something new she would love to try out? Join a class—virtual or offline—together! If your mom loves cooking, consider booking a cooking class where you can dive into a new style of cuisine together. The fun time is guaranteed, plus, you get to volunteer to taste all the yummy food she makes!
Does your mom want to jump on the retinol-craze but is not sure where to start? This night cream has a great gentle formulation with all the benefits of Retinal and Bakuchiol (a plant-based retinol alternative) that will provide all the well-aging benefits of Vitamin A. But without being harsh on your mom’s skin. She is going to love this one!
By Wishtrend - Propolis Ampoule TMI Box
If glow is more of what your mom’s skin needs, look no further! The Propolis Energy Calming Ampoule works as an antioxidant to enhance and soothe the skin. And it also makes a great gift if your mom is trying to be more conscious about the environment. Its glass packaging is partly recycled and its paper box is also printed with soy ink. Green moms will love the attention to detail you put into selecting this one!
Klairs - Freshly Juiced Vitamin Drop
Another great vitamin option to help with well-aging is Vitamin C. It’s a very effective skincare ingredient to achieve a brighter and clearer complexion. The way your mom made sure you get enough Vitamin C through your diet when you were young, with this gift you can now make sure her skin also gets enough just the same way!
Klairs - Freshly Juiced Vitamin E Mask
What is a better way to finish off any busy day than a relaxing mask? This Vitamin E mask will not only brighten your mom’s skin, but it will also help to slow down other signs of aging. If your mom uses it as a sleeping pack, she will wake up to plump, moisturized skin that feels soft and supple. Looking as young and fresh as you’ll always remember her.
At-Home Spa Day
As we mentioned before, not much can top your precious time when it comes to gifting your mom. So why not do a cozy at-home spa day by setting up the atmosphere with candles, chill music, and a soft bathrobe? You can test out any of the skincare products you decided to gift her together, while you give her a relaxing facial. Follow up with a foot soak and a massage, and your mom will feel like she just left a luxurious spa.
Massage or Spa Gift Certificate
Whether you live too far or your schedule is too busy, we know that you might not be able to spend time with your mom this Mother’s Day. That doesn’t need to stop you from gifting her the ultimate pampering experience. If you can’t do a home spa day together, consider getting her a massage or spa gift certificate. This way, she can even choose the treatments herself and schedule them at her own convenience to fully unwind.
