Mother's Day Gift Guide

May 9th 2010 

Mother’s Day rolls around on the second Sunday in May. It only happens once a year so why not treat her to something amazing? You can spend a day with mom or you can buy her something pretty – better yet, why not do both? Here are a few ideas to get you started:


Tote-all Madness
A City Tote or Satchel with the signature Jeanne Lottie handbag charm, is a great gift for moms on the go. 










Flower Power
The Tokyo born native brings us the essence of beauty, bottled in vibrant simplicity. Embellished with paper to create an illusion of flowers blooming, Kenzo wants us to remember that the world is beautiful.


Flower By Kenzo Gift Set, $72, Kenzo Amour Gift Set, $72, both available at Sephora.

New Age
Is mom still using hair appliances from the last decade? Toss those and go for the premium. A blow dryer that works 20% faster and a flat iron that goes from zero to 450 degrees in 30 seconds – now that’s performance! 

Professional Flat Iron $219.99, Infini Pro Sensor Dryer, $219.99, both Rowenta.




Fruit Fix
An easy way to perk up Mom’s spring wardrobe without breaking the bank.

Raspberry Cheek and Lip Stain, $32, Stila available at Sephora, Murale and Beautymark.

Gleam on Me
Ensure that mom sparkles and shines every other day of the year by wearing the key to your heart around her neck.

Filigree Heart Pendants(from left to right): 18K Rose Gold (large), $1,450, Sterling Silver (medium), $240, Sterling Silver and 18K Rose Gold (large), $940, all Tiffany & Co.




Sea Savvy
Most of us can’t bring mom to the ocean, so why not bring the ocean to mom? Let her soak and hydrate in the ocean’s finest.

Sea Salt Purifying Collection (
Includes: Sea Salt Body Wash, Hydrating Body Butter, Hydrating Body Gloss, Sea Salt Foaming Body Polish and Hand and Nail Cream), $24, H2O Plus.

 
Knot a Problem
Who doesn’t like to pamper themselves? With this set, mom can treat those thirsty tresses. Not to mention, Moroccanoil is donating $15,000(USD) to The Breast Cancer Research Foundation.
 
Mother’s Day Kit (Includes: Moisture Repair Shampoo, Moisture Repair Conditioner, Treatment and Paddle Brush), $88, Moroccanoil.



 
Brush with Genius
Fingers work but brushes are much better at distributing makeup evenly. This brush set has all of the essentials for creating mom’s signature look.


I Love Sephora Brush Set, $38, Sephora.








Speed Eraser
If mom has been hinting for skincare, we have just the set. All the products miraculously soften skin while firming and fighting wrinkles.

LiftActiv CxP Set(Includes: LiftActiv CxP day, LiftActiv Night, Pureté Thermale 3 in 1 cleanser and LiftActiv Eyes), $45, Vichy.
