Weighted Blanket, Avocado Green Mattress, starting at $135 (15% OFF)
“Giving your mom the gift of a good night’s sleep? You just scored yourself ‘Favorite Child’ status. Even though you can’t technically add ‘10+ hours of blissful REM sleep’ to your cart, Avocado Green Mattress’ Weighted Blanket is the second-best thing. Available in 12, 15, and 20 lbs., the weight of this soft hand-knit throw reduces cortisol levels and increases melatonin and serotonin. Translation: Your mom will fall asleep faster, sleep deeper, and feel more rested. These blankets also have the calming magic of Deep Touch Pressure (DTP) to mimic the sensation of a hug, so they’ll feel like you’re always right there with them, even if you’re long distance. Okay, we’re not crying, you’re crying.*”

Waterdrop Skincare Water Softening System, Amazon, $76.49 (15% OFF)
“POV: Your mom’s skincare cabinet is stocked with cleansers, serums, ampules, toners, moisturizers, and eye creams—but there’s one part of their skincare routine they’re probably overlooking: the water they’re using to wash their face. Did you know that regular tap water can cause irritation, mess with your skin’s pH levels, and cause dryness? That’s why they’ll love the Waterdrop Skincare Water Softening System. It has a 7-stage filtration system (99.9% of bacteria and 95% of chlorine, be gone!) and is enriched with strontium, which can help reduce skin inflammation (like eczema or dermatitis) and enhanced their skin barrier. Smoother, more supple skin? Just turn on the tap. Think of this easy-to-install gadget as the best gift they didn’t see coming.”

“Moms of all ages know that a stylish, reliable tote is a must-have—so gift them one that’s as chic, versatile, and hardworking as they are. Cuyana’s Paloma Tote is elegant, effortlessly roomy, and designed for everyday luxury. This bag is a worthy splurge, expertly crafted in Italy from luxuriously soft yet structured Italian leather. Plus, with six stunning color options, there’s a perfect shade to match their particular style. I’m loving this new Bottle Green hue!”

Carver Mat 10", Aura Frames, $179
“This is for the mom who swears they don’t need anything (“Your love is enough!” which is so sweet and all—but not very helpful. 😉). Gathering their favorite family photos and videos onto the Aura Frames Carver Mat 10” Digital Frame is such a thoughtful gesture that they will cherish for years to come. It boasts a 1280 x 800 HD display and a paper-like matted border which looks très sleek and sophisticated.

Retrospect L’Extrait de Parfum, MERIT, $92 / 30 ml
“MERIT’s debut fragrance, Retrospect, is the definition of subtle elegance and femininity, which makes it the scent of choice for the special lady in your life. Each spritz is warm and spicy with base notes of vanilla, musk, and moss, which are brightened with bergamot and pear, and rounded out with feminine jasmine, rose, and violet. When it settles, it gives that second-skin finish that lasts up to 12 hours. The woman behind the juice, master perfumer Fanny Bal, used vintage notes rarely found in fragrance today (trés chic, no?), and the custom glass bottle is inspired by modernist jewelry, making it a true collectible.”
The Modal Long Sleeve Sleep Set, Knix, $110
“Luxe pajamas aren’t something that you typically buy for yourself—and that is exactly why they make the perfect present. Trust me, I would know. I was sleeping in ratty, oversized t-shirts and sleep shorts with holes, until I was gifted this Knix Modal Long Sleeve Sleep Set for Christmas. It’s the upgrade my pajama drawer needed. I even bought it in a second color ‘cause I’m so obsessed. The modal fabric is super soft and stretchy—plus it has a lovely cooling effect (a must if your mom is a hot sleeper or experiencing perimenopause or menopause). And it washes like a dream. I’ve put them through the wash at least 50+ times and they’re still as good as new.”
“In all the flurry of finding the perfect present for the mom figure in your life, don’t forget about the one thing they’re looking forward to and will appreciate most: a heartfelt card. Instead of picking up a generic one at the drugstore (yawn!), Adobe Express lets you create a custom card that’ll give all the feels! Choose from professionally designed templates (or start from scratch) and add in your favorite photos together, a sweet message, and design elements of their fave things. You don’t have to have any design experience—it’s SO user-friendly (trust me, I would know). And if you waited until the last minute to get a gift (or you’re long distance and don’t have time to mail a physical card), don’t fret—Adobe Express will come in clutch and save your butt.*”
Crew Sneakers, ba&sh, $285
“Fact: Every cool, fashion-forward mom I know has a pair of statement sneakers in their closet. Sorry, classic all-white trainers—I’m not talking about you rn. These ba&sh Crew Sneakers fit the bill (so much so that I might need to #addtocart for myself) with their leopard print in the shape of the brand’s signature Arabesque Caitlin, contrasting sole, and two-toned brown patches. These kicks are ethically made in Portugal with real leather from certified sources that ensure animal welfare and sustainable pasture management, and even better, ba&sh is a certified B Corp™ company, so you can feel good about gifting."
Micro-Diamond Huggies, Jared Brown, $290
“My mom’s weakness? Anything sparkly! Her covetable jewelry collection is a treasure-trove of impressive diamond dupes, colorful statement rings, and vintage pieces from my grandmother, so that’s why I’ve got my eye on these Micro-Diamond Huggies from Jared Brown for Mother’s Day. These mini hoops are made with real diamonds (0.07ct) and 14K white gold or yellow gold for a subtle sparkle moment that’ll go with every outfit. If you don’t have the budget to shell out thousands of dollars for XXL diamond studs (same!), these are an affordable option they’ll adore for a very long time.”

The Cookware Set, Kilne, now $610 (21% OFF)
“If your mom’s kitchen is anything like mine, it probably features the same chipped and scratched pots and pans they’ve had since you were born. While I fully support the sustainable queen that my mother is, I also think she deserves an upgrade on the well-used cookware she uses to whip up all my fave dishes, and this gorgeous Cookware Set from Kilne is the answer. It comes in fun but elegant colors, is quality-made in Italy, and is oven-safe up to 750°F. Because it’s so versatile, it can replace up to 13 pieces of cookware, too! Plus, this set comes with a lid organizer and cookware storage system, which is *so* helpful. Selfishly, I can’t wait to eat all the delicious things she’ll cook with it!”
Tatcha The Dewy Skin Cream, Sephora, $89 / 75 ml
“One of the many fabulous things I’ve inherited from my mom is her buttery soft skin, probably because she takes such good care of it and has taught me how to do the same. She never splurges on fancy skincare for herself but loves when I surprise her with it, which is why The Dewy Skin Cream from Tatcha makes for the perfect gift. It’s a gorgeously packaged rich cream featuring hyaluronic acid that’s designed to visibly plump and smooth lines, and it also happens to be gentle on sensitive skin (which we both have). Bonus: I’ll get to use it when I stay over at my parents’ house. 😜”
“My mother-in-law recently visited for a week, and one of the highlights of her stay was getting to try out our Ooni pizza oven for an at-home pizza night. She was totally delighted at how it could cook up a gorgeous pizza in 90 seconds flat, and declared it was even better than the wood-fired pizza we’d had earlier that week at a bougie restaurant! Naturally, I immediately told my husband we need to get her an Ooni of her own because she enjoyed it so much. If you’re looking for a splurge-y gift for the mom in your own life, I can confirm that this gift is 100% mom-approved.”

Mia Large Shopper Tote, Leatherology, $215
“This gorgeous leather tote from Leatherology is perfect for moms who are always on the move, love to travel, or never leave home without their everyday essentials. It’s roomy enough to hold larger items like an iPad or makeup bag, yet remains lightweight and easy to carry. The long strap sits comfortably on the shoulder, and the detachable interior pouch helps keep smaller items organized and easy to find. Made from soft, full-grain leather, it feels as luxurious as it looks. Effortlessly chic and functional, it’s thoughtfully designed for real life.”
“This Shiatsu neck massager is one of my favorite self-care essentials. It’s so good, I’ve gifted it to multiple loved ones over the years. It’s perfect for moms who enjoy a massage but don’t always have time to get to the spa. With adjustable heat and intensity settings, it’s easy to use and works wonders on tight, sore muscles, especially around the neck and shoulders. Practical, relaxing, and affordable, it’s a thoughtful gift that any mom will actually use and appreciate.”

Wella Professionals ULTIMATE SMOOTH Shampoo and Conditioner, Amazon, $35 each
“For the moms who do everything (and still manage to have great hair), Wella Professionals ULTIMATE SMOOTH Shampoo and Conditioner is a small but mighty gift. It turns every day hair-washing into a moment of salon-level relaxation. Powered by squalane and omega-9, this duo deeply nourishes hair from the inside while replenishing and protecting the outside, leaving hair soft, shiny, and frizz-free. It’s safe for color-treated hair, dermatologically tested, and totally vegan (with no animal testing—ever). The result? Sleek, shiny hair that looks like a blowout (without even lifting a finger!). It’s the kind of self-care they’ll actually use.”
“Every Day with Babs is the perfect Mother’s Day gift for the mom who hears, ‘What’s for dinner?’ more times than they can count. This cookbook—written by TikTok and Instagram-famous Barbara Costello a.k.a. @BrunchwithBabs—is organized by weekday moods and filled with time-saving tips, so it’s like having your own kitchen fairy godmother at your fingertips! Bonus: Her famous chocolate chip cookies are in here, too. Just add an apron and a glass of wine—and you’ve got yourself the perfect little chef's gift bundle!”
Sol de Janeiro Delícia Drench™ Jet Set, Sephora, $32
“If your mom’s idea of a vacation is hiding in the bathroom for five minutes of peace and quiet (relatable), the Sol de Janeiro Delícia Drench™ Jet Set is the perfect gift. This cute travel-friendly trio includes a shower oil, body butter, and perfume mist in the scent of Cheirosa 59, which has notes of vanilla orchid and sheer sandalwood. It smells so good, feels super luxe, and is small enough to toss in a bag for when they’re ready for a real getaway.”
