Gifts for mom: 5 gifts to inspire calm, self-care, and joy!


Finding the perfect gifts for your mom or a mom friend can feel like a beautiful challenge. How do you capture all the love, care, and gratitude you feel for someone who’s done so much? 


You want something that truly speaks to her—something thoughtful, nourishing, and filled with meaning. Gifts for mom should celebrate her unique spirit and the deep connection you share. Let your gift be a heartfelt reflection of what she means to you.


When you’re shopping for gifts for mom, view it as an opportunity to honor her with something meaningful and intentional. Here are 5 gifts for mom that will match her personal style and be treasured favorites in her day.


Gifts for moms who deserve to indulge

Rose Glow Face Mask

One of my favorite ways to use this mask is to get my little one set up for his bath, and then spend his bathtime indulging in this gentle, cleansing face mask.


Unlike drugstore face masks, this mask comes in powder form and can be mixed with anything from simple, pure water to honey, a hydrosol, or even milk. It can be gently applied with fingertips or a brush, and left to sit for several minutes of meditation, reflection, or practicing more self-care like brushing hair or oiling cuticles.

Speaking of bathtime, adding this oil to my bath routine is one of my favorite ways to take care of myself, especially during the dry winter months. 

For ultimate indulgence, this oil should be warmed and applied to the entire body, and allowed to warm and soothe and sink in over several minutes. Once ready, it can be followed by a hot bath or shower.

As a simpler ritual, it can be used before or after a shower to allow for deep moisture to be locked into the skin.

It feels heavenly to apply and comes in a bottle large enough that it will last her for many relaxing showers or baths, and that will look beautiful on her bathroom countertop or tub.


Gifts for moms who love to lounge

Silk pillowcase set

If your mom likes to get cozy, give her this luxurious gift of flower-dyed silk pillowcases to help her take her relaxation time to the next level.


These silk pillowcases are each dyed a completely unique, rich color, thanks to the 100% hand-picked flower formula they are immersed in. All of the flowers are grown and processed on a family farm in northern California and create a rich, elegant hue that will elevate any space where they are used.


Gifts for moms who love organic & all natural skincare

The Sun, Moon, and Earth Bundle

From morning to night, and head to toe, this bundle is a radiant trio crafted to honor the natural rhythms of your skin and the elements that sustain it. 


Featuring the Sun Beam Serum, Moon Butter Face Cream, and Earthbody Oil, this collection works in harmony to nourish, rejuvenate, and protect, leaving skin glowing with vitality. 

Perfect for moms who cherish organic skincare and small-batch products, this bundle offers a ritual of self-care that feels as grounding as it is luxurious. Celebrate her nurturing spirit with a gift inspired by the beauty of nature.

Ascend Hydrosol

If you’re on a budget or looking for a sweet stocking stuffer, this hydrosol is perfect. 

This hydrosol is a particular favorite of mine because its unique profile helps awaken the senses while also creating a calming effect. For moms who love yoga, hiking, or meditation, this is a perfect choice. It can be used as a facial spray or toner, or as an ingredient in a foot bath, warm compress, face mask, lotion, and so much more.


All the plants used to create this hydrosol were harvested by hand on our family farm in coastal northern California.
