Mother's Day is just days away, and if you're anything like me, you have yet to secure that perfect prezzie for your one and only mama (sorry, Mom... I'm on it!).
But our lack of having-our-shit-together in no way correlates with the overflowing amounts of love and gratitude we have for our moms, amirite?! Of course not.
So I'm putting together this little list of natural, luxurious, and oh-so-nourishing gift ideas that she'll love (click on the title of each to shop the site!).
Let's totally spoil your mom — she deserves it, tbh!
1. Daily Glow Facial Dry Brush
Give the gift of a daily face massage + detox ritual. This gorgeous Province Apothecary dry brush smooths fine lines, brightens skin's appearance, reduces puffiness and dark circles, clears pore congestion, tones and firms skin, gently exfoliates, and stimulates cellular turnover. Soooo, basically, the ultimate home spa day tool.
To me, a sweet little mani-pedi care package is the epitome of getting spoiled. Especially when the polishes and other products are free of nasty chemicals! Enter Acquarella for an amazing line of water-based, petrochemical-free and vegan nail polish and accessories. The colours are fabulous, the coverage is full, and the ingredients are first-class.
Our moms are straight-up rockstars. They definitely deserve the pampered pouts to match. Elate's collection of lippies range in colour from sweet and simple to bold and bright, so there's something for your mom no matter where her tastes fall on that spectrum. OH — and the hydrating mango butter and shea formula will nourish her lips more than any lipcolour she's ever had.
Is there any gift more luxurious than a stunning new scent? Perfume is such a sensual, sophisticated present for mom, but better make it a natural formula, like Province Apothecary's Parfums Botaniques. That way, you skip the harsh chemicals and toxic fragrance, AND mom gets a handcrafted, essential oil-based scent that's sure to be her new favourite. Win-win!
5. Detoxifying + Clarifying Clay Mask
I can't say it enough: moms are the most deserving of nourishment and spoiling — after all, that's what they've been doing for us our whole lives. This gorgeous gift will do just that. Made with four types of detoxifying clays and nutrient-rich seaweed from Canada's pacific coast, this mask is a treat for her mind, body, soul and skin!
As consumers, we expect and trust that companies are putting the best ingredients forward, ensuring that the products available are safe to use.
This is a pretty reasonable thought, no?
Unfortunately this isn’t what is happening.
