This Mother’s Day, there are so many options to pamper your mother and show her not only how much you love her but how well you know her. Here are some fabulous gift ideas:
For the Chocolate-Loving Mom:
Canadian chocolatier Purdy’s has some decadent treats that are sure to both wow and please the palette of a mother with a sweet tooth. We particularly recommend the Painted Garden Tin which is filled with approximately 16 pieces of our assorted milk and dark chocolates.
Or for some chocolate lolly fun, check out Purdy’s solid milk chocolate daisies (above). These colourful, high impact lollipops come individually packaged in a cellophane wrapper and tied with a bow.
For the Bath-loving Mom:
Secret Garden Bath Bomb from Lush:
LUSH Cosmetics’ Mum Gift set is choc-a-bloc of goodies. It features a variety of bath bombs and bubble bars to ensure your mother can be pampered every day of the week. The Secret Garden Bath Bomb, pictured above, fizzes in the tub while bursting with flower petals. The Inhale Exhale Bath Bomb is scented with light melon on one half that fizzes quickly and heady amber and sandalwood on the other half, which is designed to fizz slowly to give a longer, meditative tub experience. Rose bubble bar has organic cocoa butter with built in glimmer and fresh lemon and rose scent. The Mumkin is an adorable addition but the highlight of this set is The Mum Bubble, which is a yellow sunflower on a lollypop stick that looks ironically similar to the Purdy’s Chocolate yellow daisy.
Dial also has some really posh new products including a Greek Yogurt Vanilla Honey Body Wash, Dial 7 Day Greek Yogurt Moisturizing Lotion and a Dial Frozen Yogurt Glace Fro-Yo Cooling body wash. This entire set will make your mother feel like Cleopatra with the cooling and luxurious effect of Greek yogurt. With two times the protein nourishment of ordinary yogurt, this body wash is particularly moisturizing.
For the Mother Who Wants Thicker Hair:
PLUMPING.LINE from KEVIN.MURPHY on Vimeo.
Thinning hair is a genuine problem as we age. Fortunately, there are some great hair products on the market to counteract this problem. Kevin Murphy Plumping Rinse Densifying Shampoo, Conditioner and Leave-in plumping treatment for thinning hair, does the job well. Senscience True Hue color protecting treatment comes in 28 capsules and is a power alternative, particularly if two capsules are used on hair at one time. Joico K-Pak Shampoo, Conditioner and Intense Hydrator come in a K-Pak Repair Kit, that makes a fabulous gift set. An alternative gift set is the Moroccanoil Repair Essentials Mother Day Gift Set which includes shampoo, repair conditioner and treatment. However, our favorite for the hair is Schwarzkopf BC Bonacure hair therapy oil miracle Gold Shimmer treatment, which is a very special gift that Mom will not only enjoy but will mention to her friends.
For the Mother who enjoys Sophisticated Nails:
OPI has a 4-set “Brazil” Liquid Sand Beach Sandies collection which includes mini textured beach sandies “”Samba-dy Loves Purple” (pinky blue violet), “I’m Brazil Nuts Over You” (neon pink), “Whats a Little Rain Forest” (turquoise) and “You’re so Flippy Floppy” (canary yellow). The solid shades are sophisticated and yet just modern enough to be trendy.
For the Mother who enjoys aging gracefully:
Philosophy’s Amazing Grace Mother’s Day gift set is a very elegant, subtle collection of Amazing Grace body lotion, shower gel and eau de toilette spray in Philosophy’s signature high-impact packaging.
For the Mother who enjoys Perfume:
Elizabeth Arden “Untold” Eau de Parfum Spray is definitely this year’s recommendation for mother. A sophisticated yet slightly mysterious floral scent is a timeless classic.
