Lucia It’s almost Mother’s Day, and if there’s one thing I know for sure — beauty is always a good idea. My mom? Obsessed. Skincare, haircare, the full glam routine. She literally turned my brother’s old bedroom into her walk-in wardrobe-slash-vanity zone. Iconic behavior, honestly.
So yes, like mother, like daughter. I may have inherited her cheekbones, but more importantly — her talent for “just browsing” and somehow walking out with a full Charlotte Tilbury bag. So, if you’re shopping for a beauty-loving mom (or you just need an excuse to shop for both of you), here are some of my favorite ideas:
Marie-Stella-Maris
Chic, minimal, luxurious — and it smells like a spa in a bottle. Their body care and home fragrances are perfect for moms who love aesthetics and indulgence.
Olaplex (aka hair magic)
My holy grail for hair health, and trust me — moms love it too. It’s the gift of strong, shiny hair, which is basically self-care in a bottle.
A Classic Parfum
I know, I know… cliché. But it works. My mom’s signature scent? Opium by Yves Saint Laurent — bold, warm, timeless. Choose something that fits her vibe and it instantly becomes a personal gift.
Charlotte Tilbury
Their Mother’s Day skincare and makeup bundles are such a win. Not sure which lipstick shade to pick? Pillow Talk is the universal fave (and a safe bet for moms, daughters, and everyone in between).
The Ordinary
Affordable, science-backed, and great for every age. Their scalp serum is underrated (and mom-approved), and their skincare range makes it easy to mix and match.
Dior Lip Glow / Lip Maximizer
Had to throw this in because… iconic. This gloss looks good on literally everyone, comes in dreamy shades, and just feels a little extra — in the best way.
An Experience: Spa Day
When in doubt? Go with time together. Book a spa treatment or wellness day. Bonus points if it ends with rosé and a cheese platter.
Whether she’s a beauty minimalist or the full glam queen of her friend group — there’s something here to make her feel special. (And hey, if you end up buying a matching lip gloss for yourself… I fully support that.)
Happy gifting — and happy Mother’s Day
