Choose something special from one of our favorite female-founded brands this Mother’s Day.

For the Mom Who Loves to Indulge in Her Skin Care Routine...

The Magic Glow Wand is THE tool for at-home facials. If your mom is obsessed with glowy skin, this is the way to their heart. This tool has hot, cold, and massage modes to handle a huge array of skincare problems. Give your mom the gift of radiant skin and make their bathroom a spa.

Moms deserve R&R on the daily so give it to them! Help mom replenish their skin and “romance the glow.” This mask is a great start for skincare newbies and a necessary addition for those with a huge skincare collection. If you’re lucky, maybe mom will let you in on the fun.

For the Mom Who Loves to Sit Back and Relax…

Whether your mom loves taking bubble baths, brightening up her home office, or setting the mood for that evening glass of wine, you can’t go wrong with a candle. Mom deserves to relax (more than anyone) and the sweet smells of gardenia and lemongrass are sure to do the trick.


If you want to send mom some flowers, look no further than our friends at East Olivia. These precious mini arrangements are perfect. They also have really cool cards and this fresh flower box is insane!

For the Plant Mom…

If your mom is also a proud plant mom then this is the ideal gift for her home or office. It also supports an LA-based female artist so it’s a win-win.

And a new plant is always a good idea. Because moms helps us grow!

For the Mom Who Is Super Proud (& a Lil’ Glam)...

This dainty little necklace is the touch of glam every mama needs. Help them show off their favorite role (motherhood) and add to the glam they already radiate. You can never go wrong with jewelry, especially when it’s made just for them!

For the Mom Who Has a Sweet Tooth…

What’s better than getting ice cream delivered straight to your door? That’s right… NOTHING. Jeni’s Splendid Ice Cream Mother’s Day collection will treat mom to six pints of deliciousness. Hand them a spoon and dig into dark chocolate ice cream, frosé sorbet, and more yumminess.

Is there anything better than a freshly made batch of cookies? We think not. And your mom deserves the best. These are made by Homeboy Industries' bakery and each order contains chocolate chip, oatmeal raisin, and peanut butter jam cookies. Yum!

For the Mom Who Wants to Self-Heal…

Help mom harness their healing power with this amazing Ayurveda online course. Give mom the gift of wellbeing and health from the inside out.

For the Mom Who Loves to Splurge on Self-Care…

This ultra-nourishing serum is perfect for the mom that loves to indulge. This multi-correctional serum will help mom balance, regenerate, and protect their skin. Moms deserve the best after all, and this is it!

The XX Rose Glycolic Gel is skin rejuvenation in a bottle. Its amazing exfoliating power leaves skin smoother than ever. This is a must-add to any skincare arsenal and your self-care loving mom definitely deserves it.

For the Mom Who Deserves a Love Letter…

You absolutely can’t go wrong with a sentimental hand-written card. Remind mom of her strength and the beautiful example they set so you can share just how much you love them. Break out the pens and start writing them a letter they’ll treasure forever.

For the Mom Who Loves to Get Cozy…

Is your mom the queen of the at-home spa day? Do they love to lounge around the house in PJs? This ultra-soft and cute-as-can-be robe is where it’s at. Give your mom the gift of luxury in their own bathroom and maybe throw in some cucumber water while you’re at it.

For the Mom Who Loves Head-to-Toe Wellness…

This kit is ideal for the wellness warrior in your life. Their body is a temple and it deserves some TLC. A healthy mom is a happy one and this kit is the perfect place to start.


This brand is founded by Trinity Mouzon Wofford (you might recognize her from our small business category in this year’s CC100 list) and it’s definitely one every mom (every person!) will want on their radar. We love her wellness tonics that can be stirred into any drink or smoothie, or even turned into a face mask!

For the Mom Who Lives for Organizing…

For some of us, organizing is self-care. If your mom color codes her calendar or Marie Kondo is their idol, we recommend The Happy Planner. Help them stay organized the stylish way and allow your mom to be their busy boss lady selves!

This will be a bedside favorite for every mom, especially if you add some personalized love notes throughout to reminder them how much you care.

For the Mom Who Is Sick of Cooking Mac-N-Cheese…


If your mom loves to play chef, What’s Gaby Cooking’s newest cookbook is a must-have. It’s full of recipes she can actually make time to cook and feel great about too! (Tell her you’ll do the dishes and hopefully, you’ll benefit from these recipes too!)


For the Mom Who Loves Coffee…

If you know, you know! Canyon Coffee is a cult-favorite in Los Angeles and for good reason. They’re coffee is delicious and they make incredible accessories too. This one is perfect for the mom who loves a pour-over or just loves a nice kettle for the kitchen for those slow mornings.

For the Mom Who Needs the Gift That Keeps On Giving…

Mom’s deserve more than one day a year of celebration—how does once a month sound? Birchbox will bring your mom beauty products straight to their door every month so the Mother’s Day love can continue all year long. Give your mom constant reminders of how much you love them with a box designed just for them!
