My father-in-law says it’s Mother’s Day every day and though I really want to agree with him, wouldn’t that end up being very expensive on the son/daughter side!? Mother’s Day is one of those days that have the same celebration date in my hometown of Honduras and here in the USA so I can concentrate on getting my mami one nice gift.I’ve compiled some of my favorite stuff that I’ve tried this year that Moms will love! So, unless your mom exclusively asked you for a blender or cooking utensils, try not to go that route and shower your mom with feminine & indulgent stuff she wouldn’t get for herself!
1) Samsung Galaxy Prime from Cricket Wireless $179 – If your mom still doesn’t have a smartphone this is an affordable way to treat her to technology! It’s got a huge 5″HD screen so she doesn’t complain about not being able to read the tiny letters and no photographic skills are needed to capture awesome photos with it’s impressive camera. Oh and it’s got a front-selfie lens if she’ s into the whole #selfie thing. You can get it here.
2) Sugarfina Sugar Mama Gift Set $24.99- Sugarfina is an online candy store for grown ups and they have the cutest gift packaging ever! This very complete set includes: “Sugar Mama”-Peach Sweethearts, “Mama Bear”-Mama & Baby Bears and “Hot Mama”-Spicy Chili Ginger Hearts. They also have chocolates including these very special martini olives we had as wedding favors. Get your set here before it’s too late!
3) Charlotte Tilbury Magic Cream $100- I recently met this celebrity make-up artist when she visited Nordstrom to launch her beauty line and I’ve been hooked on her creamy eyeliners and eyeshadow palettes ever since! Her Magic Cream was dubbed “Magic” by her celebrity clients for the last 20 years! It comes in a luxurious rose gold package and has ingredients like Vitamin E, energetic Vitamin C to brighten, Damask rose water to stimulate skin regeneration and it promises plump youthful skin, hydration and anti-aging. Smells delicious like plumeria!
4) Rocksbox $29/month- What mom doesn’t love some sparkle in her life? Rocksbox is an extensive jewelry-loan program and if you sign your mami up she’ll get 3 pieces of jewelry valued at up to $200 for $29! If she likes anything in her box, she can use $10 of those $29 dollars towards her purchase. Check out more about Rockbox here and a special code to get your first box for free for a limited time only!
5) It Cosmetics Gift Set- For a limited time only, you can get this cute make-up bag with all the essentials so your multitasker mother can toss it in her purse without thinking. The set includes: Travel Cosmetics Bag, Hello Lashes® Clinically Proven 5-IN-1 Mascara, Vitality Lip Flush Lipstick Butter (Shade: In Love), YLBB® Your Lips But Better Waterproof Lip Liner Stain (Shade: Romantic Rose) and the Hello Light® Anti-Aging Luminizing Crème Stick. She’ll love it because these innovative formulas were developed with plastic surgeons to make skin look fantastic! You can buy it here!
6) Class Pass $79/for one month- If your mom wants to get more active but is scared of your boot-camp antics or bored with the same old aerobics class at the gym, give her the best of all worlds with a no-contract membership to Class Pass that will allow your mom to jump from fun Zumba class to a relaxing morning yoga class for $79 a month. Use the ClassPass app to schedule your classes amongst more than 50 studios. Gift her with one month (or more) here!
Cute idea: If you do give her this buy her a neat athletic tank with inspirational words and a trendy water bottle to help her get started!
7) A Mother’s Day Brunch at this exquisite Latin American spot.
Happy Gifting and Happy Mother’s Day to all the beautiful and hard-working mothers out there!
