From making those traditional gifts of flowers and chocolates more personal to gifting your mum with something you can both enjoy together, this guide has something for everyone.
Novel Beauty
Novel Beauty is about naturally clever skincare. Using active natural ingredients that respond to your body, each product is designed to enhance your skin’s properties with each individual tub representing a chapter in your skincare story. The Poor Man’s Bath and Body (£48) contains the raw cane sugar scrub and daylight cream to leave skin feeling beautifully nourished.
Lily O’Brien’s personalised chocolates
Many mums receive a box of chocolates every year, but why not personalise a box of Lily O’Brien (£12.15) luxury chocolates to make the gift more special.
Olverum bath oil
Help your mum relax with this highly concentrated, therapeutic bath oil (£48) which contains 10 pure essential oils, carefully blended to work synergistically. Olverum is an effective way to naturally relieve stress and it is also a great way to ease aching or sore muscles.
Morris & Co gardeners' hand cream
Winter is very harsh on hands. This lightly scented hand cream from Morris & Co (£12.99) is enriched with Vitamin E, cocoa butter, shea butter, lemon and aloe extracts, jojoba oil and macadamia oil for deep moisturising.
Chateau de Berne Rosé 2015
Enjoy a glass with mum this spring. This delicate pink wine (£12.99) with a hit of summer fruits and tropical suggestions of mango will take you both back to sunnier days. The wine is intense, crisp, well balanced and refreshing on the palate.
Tutor Times tea towels
There is something to be said for receiving a practical gift. These tea-towels (£16), inspired by gothic architecture and Tudor brickwork are not only functional but make a stunning addition to the home.
Anti-ageing eye mask
Treat your mum to a good night’s sleep with the help of Proskins Gold Anti-Ageing Eye Mask (£60). Made from champagne silk the mask is incredibly comfy to wear but also helps fight signs of ageing as the yarn, containing 24 carat gold, helps with anti-ageing and moisturises the skin.
Osmology candles
Offering boutique candles from around the world, there are so many wonderful fragrances to choose from. The Nomad society Soy scented candles (£15-30) will remind you of days spent in the water and nights under the stars.
British tulips jug gift set
To make your mother’s day bouquet more special, why not send 15 British grown tulips (£41.99) presented in a white ceramic jug tied with pretty ribbon. To add to the surprise, the flowers come with some delicious Charbonnel et Walker truffles.
Sweet Cecily's Fresh Faced Gift Box
The Sweet Cecily's Fresh Faced Gift Box (£25) is the perfect gift for those who enjoy a little pampering. The gift includes a natural clay face mask, rose water skin toner and an almond & avocado face cream made from natural ingredients.
