The countdown is on, folks: Mother’s Day is around the corner. I’m telling you now so you can set a calendar reminder and not have a repeat of last year — you know, when the date “slipped your mind” and you ended up making a mad-dash to CVS for a Hallmark card and a tropical candle. Treat Mom how she deserves with the best Mother’s Day beauty gifts out there, no matter your budget.
I think the best gift makes the mother figure in your life feel warm and cozy and loved. This year, I’m getting my mom the softest Beyond Yoga leggings, Kendra Scott cowgirl-inspired earrings and one of the below beauty kits. (Don’t tell her!) These sets have serious retail value so I’m actually getting my mom a lot more than what I’m spending. And each inspires her to take some time for self-care, whether that’s a scrub in the shower or a face mask with a nice glass of wine. So read on for my 25 gift picks and try to resist the urge to keep them all for yourself.
