The BD team reveal what gifts their mums will be receiving come Mother’s Day this Sunday.
Urban Rituelle Equilibrium Skin Therapy Kit
My mum can be a little fussy when it comes to beauty products - like mother, like daughter! As a result, I have to be very particular when choosing anything beauty-related to give to her. While I know she would love the minimalist and elegant packaging of the Urban Rituelle Equilibrium Skin Therapy Kit, the products inside sold it. The beautiful scents of mandarin, basil and lime in a Hand Cream, Hand & Body Lotion, and Organic Cocoa Butter Soap are right up Mum’s alley. She best be careful, though - these products are so good, they might not make it as far as her house… - Yelena
Alpha-H Liquid Gold Love Affair Collection
My mum has taken on hundreds of different roles in my upbringing: taxi driver, chef, personal ATM, and the list goes on. The least I can do in thanks is present her with a little pack of skincare saviours from Alpha-H. The hero of the Australian made and owned company is Liquid Gold, a glycolic acid-based anti-ageing creation that has a cult following overseas. This gift pack is the perfect entry to the Alpha-H Liquid Gold world. It contains a Liquid Gold, along with a Liquid Gold Perfecting Daywear, Skin Renewal Wash, and Rejuvenating Cream. So, Mum, are we even? - Sarah
Circa Home 1961 Jasmine & Magnolia Gift Set
My sister and I are pretty competitive. It’s all in jest and fun, but we do like to outdo each other with gifts, giving each other smug scoffs when we know we’ve won. She is giving Mumma bear a wallet this year.Good luck with that, little miss. Mum is going to absolutely swoon when she unwraps my present, considering I found a gift set in not one but two of her favourite fragrances: jasmine and magnolia. This Circa Home pack contains the candle in two sizes, along with a giant hand and body wash I know she is going to adore displaying in the bathroom. A lovely gift for a lovely mum. I win! *insert smug-faced emoji* - Kelly
MOR Sumptuous Gardenia
With a winter take on the classic gardenia fragrance, this pack from MOR scores full points in the scent department. The limited-edition set contains a divine snow gardenia-scented body bar and hand cream, which will make Mum feels more than a little bit luxe this Mother’s Day. The black and gold packaging is lavish, and the hint of something extra - something sumptuous - in the fragrance makes it the perfect pressie for mums who love spritzing themselves pretty. - Nat
The Body Shop Shea Bliss Box
Ned Stark said it: “winter is coming”. Beauty wise, that means it’s time to swap those delightfully lightweight products to richer, more nourishing ones. And The Body Shop Shea Bliss Box is so ideal – the products have a subtle yet divine scent, and they’re all matchy-matchy (which is great for my mum’s slight case of OCD). With a Shower Cream, Body Scrub, Soap and deliciously creamy Body Butter, it’s a pamper pack in every sense. African women have been slathering their bods in shea butter for centuries, and they were onto a good thing: it hydrates skin and leaves it feeling soft and smooth. Go on winter, just try to dry out my mum’s skin. - Katia
