2022 Mother’s Day Gift Guide

Mother’s Day is coming up quickly and I have some great gift ideas for any mom, grandma, or someone special in your life. You’ll find the perfect products for a little pampering, gifts for the mom who loves fitness, and so much more! Many also have an eco-friendly component so you can feel good about minimizing the environmental impact of your gift. There’s something there for even the hardest to buy for mom.

1. Purist Collective Water Bottle: Purist Collective bottles just feel different when you hold them. They are lightweight but strong with surgical-grade stainless steel, rich powder coating, and a glass finish that is just 60 nanometers thick. That’s thinner than a fraction of one strand of human hair. They also have a chip-resistant interior and will keep her drinks hot for 12 hours and cold for 24 hours. Help her ditch plastic water bottles for good!
2. Sisu Scents Luxury Candle in Fresh Scent: Sisu Scents are inspired by the Finnish concept of ‘sisu,’ which represents inner strength and perseverance – perfect for moms! They make vegan, 100% biodegradable candles that are free from toxins, making them the perfect gift for a mom who deserves self-care. The candles are hand-poured in California and are free from parabens, sulfates, and phthalates. My favorite scent is Fresh Focus, a soft scent with notes of lime and Sicilian lemon with royal jasmine and lemon flower. It’s perfect to clear her mind and give her a minute to focus on herself.
3. Kahawa 1893 Coffee Mother’s Day Gift Bundle: Kahawa 1893 is a Black woman-owned coffee brand based in California. The founder is a third-generation coffee farmer. Their awesome Mother’s Day bundle includes two bags of coffee, a mug, loose leaf tea, a tea infuser, and an assortment of their single-serve coffee bags. I use their coffee bags when I’m at work and I love the convenience of being able to “brew” a cup of coffee just by heating up water! Take her home coffee routine to the next level this year with this great bundle.
4. City Beauty Line Smoothing HydroMask: City Beauty’s Line Smoothing HydroMasks are just the dose of self-care your mom needs. They work by infusing the skin with a plumping serum made with free-radical fighting antioxidants, collagen-supporting peptides, and skin-nourishing ingredients. Plus the bio-cellulose material of the sheet mask is biodegradable. City Beauty has a range of products that are perfect for aging skin, so these masks are a perfect introduction for her.
5. LiveLite Athletica Flawless Luxury Bra and Legging Set: LiveLite Athletica makes fashion-forward workout apparel that moms will feel great in. Their athletic sets are breathable with 4-way stretch expanding fabric, with sweat-wicking and odor-resistant properties. They also look great on, with details like the gorgeous strap to accentuate her body and make her feel good. The company sources materials ethically and prides itself on how employees are treated.
6. Monos Check-In Large Luggage: Every jet-setting mom needs Mono’s luggage. Their luggage is not just sexy but beyond sustainably designed. They source the highest quality vegan alternatives wherever animal-derived materials are traditionally used and they use packaging that is recyclable, reusable or both. They are a member of 1% for the Planet, so 1% of their revenue goes to non-profit organizations that are dedicated to preserving and restoring the natural world. Every aspect of their suitcases is thoughtfully designed with exceptional quality. Add to that the unbreakable polycarbonate shell, sleek telescopic handle, TSA-approved lock, whisper-quiet wheels, and range of colors (my fave is Terracotta), and I’ll never get luggage anywhere else! Travel is opening up so get her ready for her next trip with new luggage.
7. Cutluxe 8″ Chef Knife: If the mom in your life is a foodie, she’ll love a new Cutluxe knife. This 8″ Chef Knife is designed to do everything from effortless slicing, chopping, mincing, and dicing of fruit, vegetables, meat, and more. They are made of German high carbon stainless steel tempered to 56+ Rockwell for incredible edge retention. They are hand sharpened at 14-16° per side for peak performance and have an ergonomic pakkawood handle. These knives are built to last a lifetime.
8. MS Skincare Luminary Radiance Oil: Give her skin a boost with Luminary Radiance Oil from MS Skincare. It uses immortelle and carrot seed oils to enhance luminosity and promote even skin tone. The oil moisturizes the skin without feeling heavy to create instant luminosity. It’s also vegan, cruelty-free, and made in the USA.
9. Dynafit Alpine W: If you have an athletic mom, treat her to some new kicks from Dynafit. I love their Aline shoes for trail running and hiking. They are lightweight and responsive with a sole that holds up on rocky and uneven terrain. They also have a Vibram Megagrip outsole to ensure maximum grip on all surfaces and a seamlessly integrated tongue to add an extra layer of comfort.
10. Verdant Life Pink Quill Airplant Tillandsia Cyanea: A mother and daughter team has perfected the business of getting beautiful houseplants right to your door. I have this gorgeous Pink Quill plant and I’m in love. The bright pink bracts resemble ink quills, but the real surprise is it blooms violet flowers. Within a day of receiving my plant, it already started to produce blooms. One special thing about Verdant Life is they will send you a photo of your exact plant so you don’t have to rely on stock photos to make your decision. You (or your mom) will know exactly what is coming in the mail!
11. Giftcard Granny Personalized Visa Gift Card: If you really don’t know what to get the mom in your life, a personalized gift card from Giftcard Granny is the perfect option! You can choose the amount and upload a photo that the company will print on the face of the card. It’s such a fun item to get in the mail.
