The 20 Best Mother’s Day Beauty Gifts, According to an Editor
For me, Mother’s Day goes behind simply celebrating my mom. Sure, I love her to death, and she’s my main focus on the second Sunday of May, but I also want to celebrate my aunts, cousins, and friends who are mothers. That’s right. To me, it’s an all-encompassing holiday on which we can celebrate all the mothers in our lives in all forms.
There’s only one downside to celebrating so many moms—that is, my shopping list is long. Even worse, many of the moms in my life are notoriously difficult to shop for. Sure, I can go the easy route and send them all a bouquet of flowers, but gift giving is my love language, and I want to do something different. So I spent the better part of a week curating a list of the best Mother’s Day beauty gifts that money can buy. After all, I’m a beauty editor, and skincare, hair, and makeup products are what I know best. Keep scrolling to see a definitive guide to Mother’s Day gift giving, according to yours truly.
The 20 Best Beauty Gifts to Give This Mother’s Day
Dieux
Forever Eye Mask Reusable 100% Silicone Patches
Designed for under-eye SOS, these sustainable eye patches can be used again and again. Apply whatever eye serum or cream you have on hand, place the eye masks over top, and wait for them to do their thing. When you’re done wearing them, wash them with mild soap and warm water. Dry them, and place them right back in their carrying case. Easy peasy.
Slip
Silk Pillowcase Standard/queen
Almost every mom I know could use more sleep, which is why this silk pillowcase is at the top of my gifting list. It reduces friction on the hair and skin, which helps keep them smooth (no more bed head or wrinkles from side-sleeping!). Plus, it makes the bedroom feel cozy and luxe.
Osea
Golden Glow Body Set
Most of the moms I know deserve more time for self-care. This limited-edition set is sure to encourage them to take some time for themselves. It includes a dry brush to boost circulation and stimulate the lymphatic system, a body polish to exfoliate, and a body oil to moisturize and nourish the skin.
Speaking of bedtime, why not treat the moms in your life to this sample pack of the iconic Laneige Lip Sleeping Masks? Each pack contains four flavors—berry, sweet candy, mango, and peach iced tea.
LANEIGE
Bouncy + Firm Radiance Boosting Sleeping Mask
Another Laneige product I’m planning on gifting this Mother’s Day, this overnight mask makes the skin feel so soft, smooth, and plump. Apply it after cleansing the skin and right before going to bed. Active ingredients like peony and collagen complex, peptides, green tea, and hyaluronic acid bring a whole new meaning to the term beauty sleep.
Etoile Collective
Duo Vanity Case
This best-selling makeup bag is guaranteed to keep your favorite beauty products organized and in place. The high bottom compartment keeps serums and foundations standing upright to prevent spilling. The wide top compartment is the perfect fit for palettes and compacts.
Supergoop!
Everyday SPF Faves
You know what comes after spring? Summer. While we should be wearing sunscreen year-round, it’s fun to experiment with new SPF products ahead of the sunniest season. This kit comes with four mini sizes of Supergoop’s best-selling products in a bright-yellow bag that belongs in a beach tote.
Olive & June
Mani Wardrobe
Moms who can’t make it to the nail salon will appreciate this so-called mani wardrobe that contains 12 shades, ranging from light pastels to moody colors.
French Girl
Nail & Cuticle Oil
Speaking of manicures, this roll-on cuticle oil is so simple and chic.
dae
Monsoon Moisture Mask
I’m a firm believer that a hair mask is essential for an everything shower. This one drenches dry strands in moisture for extra smoothness, strength, and shine.
Sol de Janeiro
Bum Bum Firmeza Firming & Debloating Body Oil
With a caffeine complex, microalgae, and Brazilian olive oil, this body oil can firm, moisturize, and de-puff the skin. And, yes, it’s perfumed with that iconic pistachio and salted caramel scent that made the Sol de Janeiro brand famous.
SKIN GYM
Icecoolie Ice Roller
An ice roller is such an underrated gift, especially for any new moms out there who have early wake-ups. It will instantly wake you up (no caffeine necessary) since it feels so refreshing and invigorating on the skin. The cold exposure can even reduce puffiness, minimize eye bags, and soothe irritation.
CurrentBody Skin
LED Light Therapy Face Mask
In case you didn’t know, red LED light can target wrinkles, uneven skin tone, texture issues, and more. That’s why LED light masks are all the rage on Instagram and TikTok. This one is FDA-cleared and clinically proven to improve skin in as little as four weeks. The best part is that busy moms need only wear it for 10 minutes a day to reap all the benefits.
ALO
Mindful Magnesium Stress-Melting + Muscle-Soothing Bath Soak
Give the gift of relaxation with this magnesium-spiked bath soak. The popular stress-relieving mineral is combined with amla, a vitamin C–rich ingredient, and arnica, a relaxation-promoting ingredient, to soothe the body and the spirit all at once.
Joon X Moon
Fresh Floral Lavender Shower Steamer Set
If the mom you’re celebrating is more of a shower than bath person, I recommend gifting these budget-friendly shower steamers. They turn any shower into a luxe, lavender-scented spa treatment.
Another wellness-inspired gift, this set from Bala is designed to give moms some much-needed TLC. Geared toward recovery, it includes an exercise mat, a foam roller, and a trio of the brand’s massage tools.
CANOPY
Humidifier Starter Set
This mist-free and mold-free humidifier is one of the best things I own, which is why I’m planning on gifting my mom with it this May. It releases clean, filtered moisture into the air to hydrate skin and prevent airborne sicknesses like colds and flu. It even doubles as a diffuser, releasing calming essential oils into the air. Read more about this high-tech humidifier.
Diptyque
4-Piece Discovery Candle Gift Set
Give Mom some luxury with this candle gift set from the iconic French perfume brand Diptyque. It includes four of the brand’s most popular scents, so it’s sure to whisk her off to Paris without, well, actually whisking her off to Paris.
TheraGun
Mini Handheld Percussion Massage Gun – Portable Deep Tissue Massager
The TheraGun is a great gift for moms to relieve muscle soreness and tension. You can opt for the original one, but I prefer this mini version. I find it easier to use and manipulate at odd angles for neck and shoulder tension. It’s also easier to travel with.
