Mother’s Day is fast approaching and we’re all looking for a great gift to make Mum’s day. Here is my thoughtfully curated gift guide for Mum. I hope it helps in your search for the perfect present.
I love coming up with present ideas. I find it fun thinking about that a person likes and matching them with a gift that will make them happy. Whilst I love present shopping, I’ll admit it can be tricky! Sometimes my mind just draws a blank and I can’t think of anything to buy or make. That was the case this Mother’s Day. Luckily, I came up with a present idea today. So, I thought, ‘Why not share some present ideas to help anyone else struggling?”
And so, this gift guide was created.
I have tried to include presents from varying price ranges that would suit varying female tastes. But don’t feel pressured to buy your Mum something after looking at this list. Cook or make her something special and she will love it just as much.
What happens if your order doesn’t arrive on time?
Don’t fret if your present doesn’t arrive before Mother’s Day. Include a special note inside your card with a picture of the present and some words explaining what it is. I’ve done this numerous times in the past and it works a treat. With everything going on right now with closed shops and shipping delays, I’m sure Mum will understand.
For the Mum who loves her beauty sleep
Once you try a silk pillowcase, there’s no going back. You say goodbye to unruly bed hair and face creases and look forward to lying your head on the cool silk each night. I use a Slip pillowcase at home and think it would be a great gift for Mum. They also sell silk eye masks and scrunchies which you can coordinate with your pillow. Slip also have a sale on at the moment so you could even pick one up for yourself.
For the Mum who loves a facial
Bring the spa experience to your mum with unique facial tools that will level-up her skincare routine. The first product I want to shout out is the Aceology Ice Globe Facial Massagers. Available in Blue and Pink, these facial massagers help depuff, cool and enhance skins radiance. I have been eyeing them out for a while and they look like a lot of fun! Secondly, there’s the Foreo Luna Play series. These are fantastic tools that help work your cleanser into your skin to keep skin clean and radiant. I recommend the Luna series as they are a lot cheaper (the full size is $299) and serve as a safe introduction into skin cleansing tools.
For the Mum who loves a practical (yet beautiful) present
Spoiler alert, this is the gift I chose for my Mum. Maison Balzac create these stunning carafe sets in a range of colours and they make the perfect practical, yet beautiful gift. A carafe is a great gift idea for Mums working at home who need a stylish water station. But honestly, any mum who likes to stay hydrated throughout the day will love this gift. My colour picks are Amber, Green and Miel.
For the Mum who loves self-care
Give Mum the pamper pack she deserves with these relaxing must-haves. Posi 100% soy candles, hand poured in Byron Bay, are great picks for mums who love to fill a space with delicious scents. Also, any product from Bare Body Beauty Co. is a great choice for mums who like high quality, local body products. I would recommend any of Bare Body Beauty Co’s. body oils, body moisturisers, scrubs, hand wash and hand creams.
For the Mum who loves skincare
Here’s my recommendation for a luxurious skincare duo that won’t break the bank. Go-To’s Face Hero and Transformazing sheet mask. Suitable for all skin types, this is a great choice for mums who want to add hydration and radiance to their complexion. Plus, the packaging is super cute!
For the Mum who loves to read
You cannot go past Kitty Flanagan’s 488 Rules for Life: The Thankless Art of Being Correct if your mum loves a lighthearted and funny read. This book is witty and very cheeky and it’s sure to make your mum smile. On the complete other end of the spectrum, The Tattooist of Auschwitz by Heather Morris is a heart-wrenchingly fantastic read.
My list could go on but those are my top gift ideas for mums this Mother’s Day. I hope this helped you find something that she will love!
