Vitamin Nectar Glow Face Mask
A spa experience doesn’t need to cost the earth - and with this glow-boosting face mask, you’ll be giving the gift of me time every single day. Packed with 50 percent crushed citrus fruits, it smells as fresh as just-squeezed juice, with all the antioxidants and vitamins to match. Smooth on whenever you need a mineral hit, and remember that sharing *is* caring.
Leave-in Molecular Repair Hair Mask
We all know someone who spends more time in the hairdressers than anywhere else, and for them we choose this salon-worthy K18 Hair Mask. Featuring patented peptide technology that works to repair damage for all hair types, it’s the leave-in treatment we love to love - and they will, too. The best part? It clinically reverses damage in just four minutes, strengthening strands to look and feel even better.
Moments of Wellbeing in the Palm of Your Hand
Who needs one present, when you can have four? Expertly curated and handpicked by the scent scientists at NEOM themselves, this small but powerful hand balm collection is one of our favourite gifts for mum on Mother's Day. With blends to de-stress, improve sleep, boost happiness and elevate your energy, there’s a balm for every mood - and every moment. Sharing the love between mums? Pick the scents that suit them and watch their faces shine.
Oil Treatment for All Hair Types
There’s no better person in our lives than the one who radiates joy, and they need a present to match. Enter the luxury Mother’s Day gifts that make an impact - just like this Moroccanoil Hair Treatment. Our choice for silky strands with brilliant shine, it’s the gift that keeps on giving. Plus, your mother's hair will be feeling and smelling fabulous.
Beauty Elixir
Self-care doesn’t always come in the form of face masks and herbal tea. Sometimes, we turn to the beauty gifts that bring us joy whenever we need it. Enter Caudalie’s cult face mist, which turns every second into one of self-care. On the go, or spritzing on before bed, each spray delivers an intense hit of hydration - along with some soothing aromatherapy benefits. Happy Mother’s Day indeed.
Mum to Be Collection
No Mother’s Day gift guide would be complete without sharing the love with the new mums on the block - and mums to be. Deserving nothing but the best, this award-winning collection is filled with products to soothe and relieve the challenges of pre, during and post pregnancy. Plus, the five full-sized products all come packaged in a bag that’s both hospital-friendly and mum-friendly. Win-win.
Botanical Repair Intensive Strengthening Masque Rich
For the person who always helps you feel strong, thanks to Aveda, you can give back. Formulated with added Butters and Plant Lipids, this treatment intensely repairs and strengthens hair instantly. A must-have for all haircare routines, strands are left visibly healthier, softer, and shinier after just one use.
Pro-Collagen Icons Collection
Gift the one you love most with not just one, not two, but three of ELEMIS's nourishing heroes. Coming from certified Pro-Collagen lovers, this iconic trio will upgrade every skincare regime. The award-winning Pro-Collagen Cleansing Balm melts away makeup and impurities, while the Marine Cream is clinically proven to plump in 14 days. Then, sleep well with Pro-Collagen Night Cream and wake up on the bright side of the bed.
Wake Up With Me Complete Morning Routine Set
The perfect start to Mother's Day? Gifting Sunday Riley. Including seven best sellers, this complete morning routine has it all. Start by cleansing the skin with Ceramic Slip Clay Cleanser, followed by a mist and massage of Pink Drink Essence. Next mix the C.E.O. Glow Oil and Vitamin C Serum for a skin cocktail. Then apply Good Genes to the face and neck before the C.E.O. Afterglow Brightening Gel Cream to lock in moisture. Top off by patting Auto Correct Eye Cream around the eye area, and trust your day will be as happy as your skin.
