Mothers Day Gift Ideas

Apart from a big sloppy kiss and a card, what do you give your Mum on Mother's Day?

I have compiled a list of amazing gifts to help you out, all are affordable and luxurious, products that Mum wouldn't probably normally buy for herself - all are a perfect gift :) for a special lady.

Find Me A Gift have a gorgeous selection of bath and body products, all are handmade from natural ingredients and beautifully finished.

My favorite products are their Bath Melts

 

The melts come in different shapes and sizes, they are all immaculately presented in good quality boxes.  

The Bath Melts are chemical free and made with pure essential oils and cocoa butter. Choose your melt style and fragrance then just drop one in the bath and relax.

I have the 'Truly Roses - Rose and Geranium Essential Oils' they smell delicious as the fragrance hits you before you have even opened the box.  

Pamper Mum on Mother's Day by letting her relax in a bath full of essential oils and luxury.

RRP: £11.99 but on special offer now for £9.99 (as at 13th March 2011)

Pukka produce a huge range of teas containing organic ingredients, the two varieties I have tasted are both naturally caffeine-free and packed full of organically grown and ethically sourced ingredients.

Fennel tea as it should be; deliciously sweet, aromatic and soothing.

Three varieties of fennel have been used to create an abundance of flavor that also helps calm and support your digestion. 

Fennel has been used to support health for thousands of years and Pukka have created a unique blend to harness this incredible potential.

Morning Time tea is a naturally caffeine-free, deliciously sweet and full-bodied blend of uplifting herbs which can be enjoyed with or without milk to help kick start your day. 

• Red ginseng and roasted maca are a perfect natural pick me up

• Rooibos and honeybush enliven and refresh

100% organically grown and fairly traded, we hope this is the best rooibos blend you will ever taste

Why not wake up Mum on Mother's Day with a Organic Inspired Breakfast or a hamper of tea's to cleanse her body from the inside out.

QVC have a large range of gifts perfect for Mum on Mother's Day.

Liz Earle 3 Piece Detoxifying Essential Body Kit

All Mum's would like smoother radiant-looking skin, maybe the perfect pressie could be Liz Earle's Detoxifying set. 

First up she could massage the Energising Body Scrub (50ml) in circular movements to exfoliate, revitalise and renew her skin. The scrub contains specially selected ground olive stones gently buff away dead skin cells for healthier-looking skin.  This is quite a thick gel with good sized grains, its scratchy enough to feel it working but not too course to make your skin sore.

Next kick-start her day with a Energising Body Wash (200ml) - a revitalising yet gently cleansing, skin-softening wash that contains pure plant extracts and natural foaming agents. This wash has a lovely fragrance, its very mild and a completely clear gel which makes it feel very fresh and clean.  The gel foams up just enough for a good all over clean, then washes away easily.  The fragrance is left on your skin after use leaving a nice smooth soft effect.

Finally also included is a brilliant Energising Hip and Thigh Gel (200ml) - Mum can massage daily to improve the look of her skin.  Luckily for me ;) a little goes a long way, you only need a small amount to cover a large area of skin.  Again the fragrance is light and fresh and leaves your skin smelling and feeling good.

The whole set is available from QVC priced at
