Mother’s Day is right around the corner so it’s time to celebrate that fantastic woman in your life with something special. Here are some of our picks.
For the woman who loves tea, there is nothing quite like surprising her with a beautiful box filled with her favorites. We love Palais des Thes, a French tea brand that has all of the gifting options you need to find the one that is perfect for her. Try the assortment of eight signature teas that includes a Chinese green tea, Himalayan black tea, Japanese green tea, Chinese black tea, sweet green tea, Oolong, green tea with ginger and a caffeine-free Earl Grey.
Food lovers will go crazy over Maille Bistro gift box of specialty mustards. Included in the beautiful box are three samples inspired by a French bistro – a white wine mustard with lemon and garlic, mustard with white wine, toasted onions and wild thyme (our favorite) and white wine mustard with fine herbs that can be enjoyed alongside a summer salad or served as a condiment for meats and roasted vegetables.
We love beauty products that work doubly as hard to get you the results you need. For example, iS Clinical’s Reparative Moisture Emulsion works to restore, smooth and hydrate the skin while reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Apply this first before makeup and she will see results almost immediately. Akin appears firmer, smoother and more balanced.
May is also Skin Cancer Awareness Month so be sure to give her some much needed protection from the sun. We love Receutics Active Skin Care advanced sunscreenwith SPF 40. What makes this product unique is the combination of micronized zinc oxide as well as UV protection to give her the ultimate defense against the sun’s harmful rays.
If she is an active woman who loves the sun, Kiss My Face has just what she needs for added protection. We recommend the water-resistant Cool Sport Mineral Air Powered Spray Lotion SPF 30, an air powered, eco-friendly spray sunscreen that provides advanced mineral sun protection. It smells great too as it includes aloe, cucumber and green tea to instantly hydrate and cool skin.
For a quick spa getaway without having to leave the comfort of her home, give her Plum Hill’s gift sampler set. We love the coconut lime scented set, which includes one 2oz Sugar Body Scrub, one 2oz Body Oil, one 2oz Hand and Body Wash and one 15oz Lip Balm.
Some women are hard to buy for, but we have just the right gift for her if she is one of those women. The editors of O, The Oprah Magazine, have put together a collection of inspiring personal stories in an audio collection called O’s Little Book of Happiness that features everything from lasting love to food obsessions. Each story tells a personal tale with humor, advice and wisdom.
For most women, beautiful skin takes a little bit of work. To rid her skin of toxins, we recommend Derma Doctor’s Kakadu C Amethyst Clay Detox Mask. This magnesium rich amethyst clay mask absorbs impurities and detoxifies skin without stripping the skin of its natural oils. The result? A gorgeous complexion that not only feels softer, but appears smoother and brighter.
Finish off her new look with Glo Therapeutics Lip Revival. This luxe treatment is designed to create smoother lips by increasing hydration and collagen production. Simply apply the conditioning cream with the enclosed spatula to the lip area each morning and evening. Wait until the nutrient-rich cream has been fully absorbed before applying lipstick. We also love Glo Minerals Lip Plumper in Copper Shimmer that softens and conditions lips for a beautiful finish.
