This gift guide was inspired by what to buy for our mums throughout the year because there are so many special occasions that sometimes you want to think outside the box. I’ve curated a guide which had a variety of gifts which I think your mum would love!

Theatre tickets

Mrs Doubtfire is one of my favourite childhood movies, and when I saw it was showing in The London Shaftesbury Theatre, I was so excited! It’s a hilariously funny musical that all the family can enjoy from all ages. This show has been one of my favourite theatre productions of all time, and I think it would make a memorable gift for Mother’s Day. It’s such an entertaining, feel-good show that will have you belly-laughing the whole way through.

For a good hair day

Heated styler

This volumewave heated brush is the Answr to a good hair day! The all-in-one hair tool promises volume and bounce with a salon-quality finish. A versatile tool loved by all mums, perfect for any style, blowouts, curls or combating frizz control, Answr will be the most thoughtful gift. Its most appealing feature is the tangle-free bristles, so no tugging on your hair.

Leonor Greyl

Shampoo and conditioner

Years ago, my hairdresser advised me to switch to a salon-quality shampoo and conditioner instead of Highstreet shampoos. She told me I would thank her for it later. The comparison from Highstreet shampoos to professional is next level! When you choose a salon-quality shampoo, it contains high-grade ingredients and works according to your hair type. Instead of wasting money on multiple products, investing in a special-formulated shampoo and conditioner will maximise results and save you money in the long run! Leonor Greyl products have 93% natural ingredients, not only giving you healthy-looking hair but combating dandruff conditions and maintaining scalp health at the same time. I love this brand because the products have gentle formulas that enable us to use them daily if necessary.

For the pilates mums

Gymwear set

Just Strong is not just a gym wear brand but a lifestyle! I feel half the battle with wanting a healthier lifestyle is all in the preparation; Just Strong provides high-performing gym wear to make sure you feel body confident when you wear it. Their clothing flatter, supports, and enhances your body while providing reliable functionality. The seamless leggings are gym-essential, providing a high waist fit and built to keep you dry throughout your workout with their sweat-proof technology.

For the skin fanatics

3-in-1 Cleanser

SBC Hydra-Collagen Replenishing Cream Cleanser is your ultimate skincare must-need; a 3-in-1 cleanser deeply cleanses your skin of impurities whilst gently removing makeup, including stubborn eyeliner and mascara. This cream cleanser won’t dry or strip the skin, ensuring a hydrated feel after use. It’s suitable for all skin types, even those with sensitive skin. Apply onto dry skin and then use warm water and a facecloth to remove for best results.

Marine Collagen – helps to enhance the suppleness and flexibility of the skin, prevent dehydration, and reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
Kukui Seed Oil – provides moisture and nourishment to dry, mature skin types.
Cocoa Seed Butter – helps to protect your skin’s natural moisture barrier, nourish the skin and improve elasticity.

Resurfacing Serum

SBC Glycolic Resurfacing Serum is a unique body serum, perfect for areas that need extra love. This serum focuses on reducing the signs of ageing while exfoliating and brightening the skin. It contains Glycolic acid helping to break down dead skin cells, and revives dryness or unwanted texture. If you are also prone to ingrown hairs, this product can be a great addition to your skincare routine as it helps minimise them.

Individual lashes

Every makeup bag should have a pack of Ardell falsies in there! These individual lashes add volume and length to your natural lashes and have that seamless finish that everyone desires! They have no visible lash band, are undetectable when worn under natural lashes, have a long-wear bond and seal, can be applied up to 6 times and have an impressive ten-day wear! They would make a great addition to a Mother’s Day beauty basket.

Tweezers

Rubis tweezers are a must-have in your makeup bag. They are renowned for producing precise products exclusively for the Swiss watch industry, including Patek, Cartier, and Rolex. Companies that require high-precision work can trust Rubis for the best quality tweezers! Known to be the most precise tweezers in the world, ensure you don’t drop them as it can throw them out of alignment; these tweezers have been made to last a lifetime. These would make the perfect gift as they are reliable, resilient and tarnish-free!

Serum for Execma

This SOS serum was designed to reduce itching caused by skin conditions such as Eczema, psoriasis and dermatitis. Not only that, but it’s a great product to support the withdrawal of steroid creams, treats and soothes bites, stings and minor burns whilst hydrating wind-chapped and sun-damaged skin. This serum is suitable for all ages from 1 month and upwards, so it would be a great addition to the skincare bag.

Sun coin 18k gold plated necklace

Luna Charles is a beautiful jewellery and accessories brand that creates quality pieces that are timeless and meaningful. They have a range of unique pieces online, and there is something perfect for each mum this Mother’s Day. This sun coin necklace comes in a gorgeous gift box with wrapping, and a handwritten gift note can be available in your order. These delicate necklaces look great for everyday wear, or you can dress it up with the matching bracelet and earrings.

Happiness Journal

These planners are my ultimate gift-giving go-to! I have used these Lovendu journals for years, and they make the best and most thoughtful presents. This happiness journal is a self-development tool to help you become the happiest version of yourself and guide you to a more enriched life. Inside these planners are sleep and mood trackers, self-discovery activities, daily gratitude lists, quotes and more! They have 180 pages, 12 consistent weeks of daily journalling, undated to relieve the pressure, a hardback cover and an A5 size to carry in your handbag.
