What To Buy Your Mom For Christmas

It's no question that moms are always doing the most and often forget to take care of their own needs, which is why this year you could give yours a eucalyptus body scrub that will exfoliate her skin and bring the spa into her home. It also just so happens to be listed as one of Oprah's favorite things in 2022.

Give your mom the gift of a luxurious, relaxing bubble bath. Blended with aloe, macadamia nut, sweet almond, and olive oil, this natural oil bubble bath is sure to uplift her mood and nourish her body, while leaving her skin feeling smooth and replenished. What more could any mom want?

If filling out cards doesn't come easily to you, this Oprah-approved, keepsake book comes with 12-fold-and-mail-style letters, each with a unique prompt to help you detail just how grateful you are that she's in your life.

Not only will you get to learn more about your mom through her stories, but she'll also love the time she's taken to reflect on her extraordinary life. The journal offers prompts, so it will be easy for her to get started.

This inspiring book, written by Michelle Obama, is sure to have a prominent placement on her bookshelf. In it, the former First Lady gets personal about over challenges and finding your light even during the hardest of times.

Adorably casual, the mom on your list will love throwing on this hat, which proclaims her role loud and proud. Though one size fits all, the navy topper can be adjusted with a brass buckle in back. And for a twinning opportunity, you can also get a matching BABE hat for her little one.

I love to read and review various genres with a focus on contemporary fiction, historical fiction with some mysteries/thrillers and also select nonfiction and memoirs. If you'd like me to review your book, contact me!

Dr. Barbara Sturm makes life-giving serums and tonics for the skin, but lest we forget that lips come under the same umbrella too.

Of all the many subscription gifts you can give (take a look at the list, there are a lot), this one might well be the most fun. Available from The Tiny Marmalade via Not On The High Street, you can sign your mum up to join a Jam on Toast club, which sends out six new and unusual flavours of preserve every month. Maybe you could add a bread subscription to make it the ultimate breakfasting gift?

Essential oil diffusers are not only good for introducing beautiful fragrances into your home, but they can have a really positive impact on mental well-being too.

With time settings of 30 minutes, an hour, two hours or three, you can leave it on for a set amount of time, making it ideal for unwinding in the evening. The perfect gift for any busy mother.

Chances are, your mum already has some Aesop bottles displayed proudly in her bathroom, so what harm can you do by expanding her collection? Known for its stylish and aesthetically pleasing packaging, Aesop's Resurrection set will also give her hands some much-needed TLC, thanks to the blend of botanical ingredients which work to protect against the impact of the outdoors on the skin. Elevating her bathroom aesthetic and taking care of her hands? Now that's a multi-functional gift.

What if we told you there was a way to make the most delicious, velvety hot chocolate you had ever tasted from the comfort of your own home? It would make a pretty good gift, wouldn't it? Lucky for us, and you, Hotel Chocolat's best-selling magical machine is back in stock and does just that. Super simple to use, all there is to do is add milk of their choice and grate chocolate into the pot, press the button and two minutes later their hot drink will be ready. Your loved one can say goodbye for good to powdery hot chocolate that sinks to the bottom of the mug. Honestly, it's the dream.

Liquids stay cold for 24 hours or hot for 12 in the Zero water bottle, a futuristic sort of a gadget designed for literally everyone.

As well as its magical temperature-preserving powers, this bottle also has a UV lid that keeps the inside of the bottle clean, without the faff of washing it.

Sometimes the best gifts are the ones that give you the opportunity to try something new, and one of our favourites for this year has to be the Noah's Box Pottery sets. Incorporating everything your mum needs to get started on crafting her very own pottery, including two packs of air-dry clay, an eight-piece pottery tool set, a set of three paintbrushes, a paint set and a pottery guide to help beginners get started, she'll be crafting herself vases and sculptures in no time. We can hazard a guess as to what your next birthday present will be.

For the uninitiated: Steamers are like bath bombs for the shower.

Calling all entertainers and dinner party hosts this is the gift for you. If you were constantly bombarded by party guests growing up, your parents need this book. This book compiles drink recipes and traditions from all 50 states.

Get your parents something they are sure to love and use every year. A Hanukkah Menorah represents the eight days of Hanukkah and the eternal flame in the Temple. For the not so traditional parents, a nice vase or a throw pillow will work.

No matter how old your parents are, keeping up with your health is one of the most important things in life. For whatever fitness goal your parents have, getting them a Fitbit is an easy way for them to track of heart rate, sleep modes, and daily steps.

Repay your parents for all those home-cooked meals they made you growing up. A personalized cutting board and a new set of plates and bowls would make their day. Your parents deserve to only eat off the best.

Putting that thoughtful touch on a personalized cutting board makes it become a part of the family and something your parents will actually want to use. Maybe try to cook them a meal too, just a thought.

If your parents are coffee addicts, this gift is for you. The Ember Temper Control Smart Mug will keep their coffee nice and toasty all day long. Perfect for those who like to sip on their coffee instead of chugging it like you do before your 8 a.m. class. This app-controlled mug allows them to start heating up their coffee from bed. Enough said.

Sometimes your parents just want to be warm. So help them, please. Fuzzy slippers remind us of the holidays and the comfortable warmth of being indoors amidst the cold weather. The point is, slippers can go a long way to remind someone that you care and give them a cozy holiday season.

The gift that keeps on giving. Though it might be a little pricey, your mom is worth it. Get her a charm bracelet with one or two charms to start out. Then, for holidays and birthdays to come you always have a go-to gift for mom.

So your dad goes for whiskey more than beer? No problem. Spice up his glassware with a set of personalized whiskey glasses. For the whole package, pass by a liquor store and pick up his favorite whiskey so he can try out his new glasses. This will probably excite him much more than the typical coffee mug gift.

Does your dad have an at-home office? Well, then the perfect gift will make his life much easier. Buy organizers, storage containers or just about anything that will make his office space functional AF.

Choose a postcard that means something to your parents. Do they love traveling? Try this set of National Park postcards. Have they always provided you with a pet cat your whole life? Check out these adorable kitten postcards. You have endless options.

What else could your parent want besides a reminder of the people they love the most: their kids?! You and your siblings are obviously the best things that ever happen to your parents. They should remember that every day.

If you have fond memories of cheering on your favorite NFL team with your dad on a Sunday afternoon, buy him a puzzle to commemorate his favorite team. No man cave can ever have enough sports memorabilia, right?

Is their closet already packed full? Try something a little more unique like a Christmas ornament, a cool framed photograph of your campus (maybe one with you in it!) or matching onesies (yes, those exist).

If your parents are major coffee lovers, try one of these adorable Starbucks Gift sets. Pick one up the next time you get your pre-final exam espresso boost. Bonus points: Whip them up a steaming hot batch of cocoa and serve it to them in their new mugs. 041b061a72
