15 Far-From-Basic Mother’s Day Gifts: From Beauty to Bling

Finding the perfect gift isn’t always an easy feat, especially when it comes to Mother’s Day.
Whether your mom seems to already have everything or is, er, slightly picky (Hey, she knows what she likes!), the point remains the same: The goal is to give her something she will truly love and use.
But fear not if you’re overwhelmed or on a time crunch. The editors at Us Weekly have done plenty of digging to pinpoint what presents are actually worth the investment.
Of course, the new jewelry line from Theresa Caputo — a.k.a. The Long Island Medium — immediately comes to mind. Even if she’s not spiritually inclined, she’ll appreciate the luxe-looking hypoallergenic trinkets (Read: They’re great for sensitive skin!) from the TLC reality star, which were created alongside jewelry designer Carolyn Rafaelia.
Additional items you can’t go wrong with? A divine-scented candle that will instantly elevate any space, chic and supermodel-approved pajamas (Elsa Hosk is a fan!), a bouquet of flowers that will actually leave her impressed, splurge-worthy anti-aging skincare and more.
Below, a carefully curated guide with 15 thoughtful and timeless gifts for your number-one fan, just in time for Mother’s Day on Sunday, May 11. After all, she deserves it!
TOKENS OF AFFECTION

Express your adoration for Mom any way you want with customizable arm candy from Roxanne Assoulin. The brand’s Just Say It Custom Bracelets allow you to add any letter or emoji!

She’ll love showing off her always-flawless manicure with BaubleBar’s 18-Karat Gold Custom Birthstone Ring.

More than just pretty gems! The “Divinely Guided” collection from Theresa Caputo, including this beautiful anti-tarnish “I Love You Mom XOXO Posy” bracelet, will make her feel truly special.
MEMORABLE SCENTS

Can she ever have too many perfumes? Probably not. Francis Kurkdjian’s recently-launched Kurky Eau de Parfum — infused with musks, fruit and subtle vanilla aromas — will become her new special occasion spritz.

Nest New York’s Bamboo Decorative 3-Wick Candle houses the same spa-like scent (think: a blend of mood-boosting white florals, green accords and citrus notes) that customers know and love. Only now comes in swoon-worthy new packaging.

If she loves woody aromas and wishes to (mentally) drift away to a dreamy, nature destination, this Diptyque Paris Hourglass Diffuser will do the trick.
WARDROBE ESSENTIALS

Loungewear is a must-have for any mom. Because she deserves plenty of R&R, spoil her with a cozy piece that says it all: Mom of the Year Sweatshirt from Favorite Daughter.

Surprise her with Tory Burch’s posh Fleming East-West Tote, a swanky accessory that’s both stylish and practical, thanks to its crossbody chain and easily adjustable handles.

Eberjey’s Inez Washable Silk Printed Long PJ Set (Elsa Hosk fronts the brand’s Mother’s Day campaign) is a lovely addition to anyone’s sleepwear drawer.
HOSTESS GIFTS

Brighten her day with a beautiful and seasonal floral arrangement, like The Peony bouquet from UrbanStems. (The short Peony season began in May and will end in June.).

Even the hard-to-impress wine enthusiast will be impressed by a Juliet’s Cabernet Sauvignon bottle infused with delicious notes like blackberry and chocolate. Bonus: It comes in sustainable packaging.

Satisfy her sweet tooth with luxurious candy at a decidedly affordable under-$10 price: Compartés Rosé Wine Chocolate Bar. It is infused with actual rosé, which lends it a lovely pink hue and makes for the perfect wine-and-dessert pairing, too.
BEAUTY NO-BRAINERS

The beauty lover will be thrilled with the Charlotte Tilbury Glossy Lip Duo in Nude Pink, which consists of two makeup must-haves in universally flattering shades: the Mini Lip Cheat in Iconic Nude and the Mini Collagen Lip Bath in Pillow Talk.

Your hard-working mom will appreciate L’Occitane’s Hand Cream Bouquet, which will keep her skin nourished no matter what she’s tackling.

We already predict that your dear mother will treasure La Mer’s new Rejuvenating Night Cream. The pampering formula is infused with a gentler anti-aging ingredient than retinol that won’t strip her delicate complexion; however, it supports cell renewal, diminishes fine lines and has been shown to deliver smoother skin, naturally.
