It’s the little thank yous that mean a lot…

With Mother’s Day coming up on Sunday 30 March, knowing what to get the special woman in your life can be tricky, which is why we’ve taken the guesswork out of it.

While some mums crave a lie-in and others cherish breakfast in bed, if you want to add a gift to your perfectly curated bunch of flowers, look no further than our ultimate mother's day gifts selection. 

1.

Duet Blowdry Black BK GHD, £379

The GHD Duet Blowdry has received cult status by beauty experts all over the world for doing all the styling work without heat damage, so your lucky recipient is guaranteed to love it. Buy it for anyone juggling lots of kids or who’s simply short on time, it’s going to transform their morning routine.

2.

John Lewis floral mum mug, £7

You can’t go wrong with the humble mug. Bright, colourful and meaningful, all other crockery will promptly be pushed to the back of the cupboard. Great for new mums (make them the tea to go in it for extra brownie points).

4.

Elemis, Marine Cream SPF, £95

Elemis Marine Cream is always a welcome luxe treat for the mum who loves beauty. This powerful anti-ageing cream uses collagen to lift and firm skin thanks to the combination of marine algae padina pavonica, rose and mimosa absolutes, gingko biloba and liposomes. It reduces fine lines, increase hydration and add moisture.

5.

A John Lewis Gift Card, from £10

On the surface a gift card might not seem that thoughtful, but giving one creates a personalised experience because the mum-figure in your life can treat herself to something she really wants. Whether it’s a new camera to capture the memories or a sleep mask and oils to chase that illusive eight hours she’ll put it to good use.

6.

Yves Saint Laurent, Loveshine High Shine Lipstick, £38

This high-shine lipstick quenches lips with up to 24-hour hydration. Infused with lip-caring formulas like fig extract and nourishing oils, it’ll leave lips visibly softer and healthier-looking lips. There’s a wide variety of colours all of which are easily buildable for a more vibrant look.

7.

John Lewis PJ set, £59

Mums have a special ability to get by on very little sleep, but you can still make the time they do get to spend in bed more chic and super comfortable. This 100% modal, dream-inspired set are perfect for year-round snoozes and weekends at home.

8.

Aery Happy Space Candle set, £37

The gift of a candle never fails to excite (trust us, we are candle connoisseurs). This set contains three candles that burn for 15 hours each. They’re all packed with essential oils that have been blended to either uplift, invigorate or simply boost your mood.

9.

Sheepskin mule slippers, £55

We know what you're thinking — these are perfect for winter hibernation. You wouldn’t be wrong, however, the hollow fibres in the sheepskin that mean they are warm in winter also ensure that they won't get sweaty in the summer making them a thoughtful all-year-round slipper.
