It’s never too early or too late to shop something great for your mom this Mother’s day! I love me some good skincare products, and I am sure your mom would too. So, I put together the 15 best skincare gifts you can give to your mother, wife, partner, grandmother, aunts, sisters, co-workers, or even yourself, all in this post.
Who would say ‘No’ to good skin? Not me!
If you’re ready, let’s dive right in!

Being a mom with effortlessly healthy-looking skin is ideal for me, and I bet all moms out there would agree with this thought, even though it’s hard to achieve in real life. But you can do it by choosing and using the right skincare products that will help penetrate your skin and target specific concerns.
In this post, I choose fifteen clean skincare sets focusing on anti-ageing and hydrating that would help bring skin back to its youthful days.
I would use all of the items myself and give my mother on mother’s day and any occasions. The best part it’s starting at $26.
Products ranked by the most inexpensive to the high-priced!
Let’s get shopping, shall we?
ONE
I love cocokind products, and this set is a must to achieve soft and hydrated skin. The sake ofextract–Japanese fermented rice wine is rich in prebiotic sugars and enzymes to smooth and support the skin’s microbiome. Red clay, upcycled coffee grounds, and prebiotic chicory balance the skin microbiome and gently exfoliates skin to leave it soft and smooth.
This is one of the sets that you can visibly see the result after the first use. A trio to visibly firm, lift & reduce the look of wrinkles your mother would love to receive.
I have been a big fan of this product for over fifteen years, and I still LOVE it. This set would be a great gift set to add to any mom’s skincare collection. The pure and lightweight water formula decreases the appearance of spots, reduces wrinkles, refines skin texture, improves firmness and elasticity, and dramatically boosts radiance.
If you are into vegan skincare products but haven’t heard of any vegan collagen, it’s now the end of the search as this skincare set is the set you are looking for! Including serum, face mask, facial cleanser and body cream that your mother would appreciate this head to toe clean and vegan skincare gift set this Mother’s Day!
Give me some more vegan skincare goodies! This complete skincare routine takes care of all of your skin’s needs with clean and effective ingredients like their signature vegan probiotics, sourced from the highest mountains in Korea, and vitamin-rich prickly pear extract. Make your complexion glow on a whole new level!
Get smooth and plump skin from face to body with this clean and vegan skincare set by From Plants Beauty. If you are on a hunt for a plant-derived, non-chemical retinol alternative that will give your skin that natural glow, I recommend getting this set. My husband and I are using this set every day, and we can’t say enough how much we love all the products we formulated. Comes with a clear quartz roller and a 100% organic lightweight body oil. Anyone would love this clean skincare gift set!
I love this anti-ageing set a lot! With their well-known Squalane line in one set, you wouldn’t want to miss this valuable skincare treasure. It will make a perfect gift for any mom.
Smooth & firm the look of wrinkles with clean & clinically proven actives like retinol-alternatives, peptides & probiotic extracts. Your mom will thank you for that!
Your skin needs superfood too, and this skincare set is all about that! In this set, the Superfood Facial Oil is one of my favourite face oils-formulated with nine antioxidant-rich Superfoods to reveal a healthy-looking glow.
Love me some La Mer! This Mini Miracle Broth™ Glow Collection is packed with mini essentials of the label’s bestsellers; the limited-edition bunch harnesses the power of the brand’s sea-inspired Miracle Broth™ elixir.
Please take me back to South Korea for more Sulwhasoo shopping! My oh my, I love that they came out with a perfect gift set that will be your mother’s new favourite K-Beauty products. This is a limited-edition set featuring full- and travel-size jars of Concentrated Ginseng Renewing Cream, plus other skincare favourites! Get it before it’s gone!
Looking to gift an ultimate skinvestment to your mother? This is the set you might want to take into consideration. This set includes: Regenerating Cleanser DLX, Resurfacing Mask DLX, Hydrating Floral Essence DLX, Elixir Vitae DLX, Boosted Contouring Serum DLX, Elixir Vitae Eye Serum PKT x3, Creme Riche DLX, Medium Collapsible Box, Mask Brush, and Insert Card.
It’s time to give your mother and your loved ones a skin makeover they deserve without any harmful chemicals! Pick one or a few of the clean skincare gift sets above this Mother’s day, and don’t forget to say how much you love her/them!
I hope you love all of the products I handpicked for you.
My 2019 Holiday gift guide is finally here. I’m super excited to share with you what are the gifts I have on my lists. It took me a while to complete this post, but it’s worth the time as all the gifts I have here are so fun and would make the person who receives it appreciate your thoughts behind the gift.
I hope you will enjoy looking around this post as much as I enjoyed putting this gift guide together. I love that I got to see all the pretty and practical products that I would use myself daily but a lot of gifts I recommend in this holiday gift guide, I have been loving and enjoying them for a quite sometimes myself.
In this Holiday Gift Guide, you will find seven categories:
Cute Gifts for Her under $100
Classic Gifts for Her
All You Need for Self-Care Gifts
Home Gifts
Gifts for Him
Gifts for Kids and
Gifts for Astrology Lovers
If you are ready, let dive into each gift guide.
Cute Gifts for Her under $100
In this list, I found a lot of cute gifts, pretty jewelry, and fun items that have good meaning and empowering messages that you can gift to your girl gang.
When it comes to classic gifts for her, the first item that came to my mind was the Chanel No5. But that’s not the only item on the list. I have quite a few more on the list that would make it a special gift this year.
It would be weird if I don’t have a self-care gift guide as I send out self-care challenges on my Newsletters every week. In this list, I put together gifts that you can gift to yourself and others to stay active, be positive, and help to unwind all in one.
As I am enjoying decorating my home but tend to change things up around here all the time, I found a few pieces of items in the house that I would keep them in the same places and are the perfect gifts you could give to your loved ones. So in this list, I included those items that I’m regularly using; they make the house look more stylish as well.
All the kid’s gifts below are super adorable, and some are good with child development. These gifts on the list are for boys and girls. I’m getting a few of them for my kids too.
The last one on the list is a gift guide for astrology lovers. Since I’m into stars, moon, and the universe, I found that these gifts are perfect for those who are into what I am loving.
Wishing you and your family a merry Christmas and a happy new year from my little family! 🙂
This year had brought a lot of love, joy and success to my family and business. Eight days ago I started my #GoodVibesGifting series for the purpose of giving back and connecting with my readers.
I got nervous at first that no one would participate in this series but as the days went by, I saw our connections way more than I’d ever imagined.
Next year, I’m going to share with you a lot more content that would benefit our community most.
Thank you for sharing your ideas in yesterday’s post. You can still give me more ideas at the end of the post even though this series has ended and I’m about to announce our winners.
Or feel free to leave your comments below about what areas in life you want to improve most so that I can focus on those areas next year.
Now, it’s time to announce our winners. I’m going to post their stories below, I hope you find them helpful and you can use their inspiring stories to improve some areas of your life.
TERRI PIETTE
I am grateful for the birth of my daughter, I found out years later that I had a tumor/cyst on my pituitary gland. I wasn’t producing hormones and had this since puberty but never knew and it just kept growing all those years. I realized then how lucky I was to have even gotten pregnant, Also i didn’t produce breast milk and never knew why. As much as I have always loved her, with the news I found out, I realized how much of a miracle she really was and appreciated her even MORE.
DAWN SMITH
I would love to be able to help my sister know that she deserves good things in life. Her and my Brother-in-law just bought a house and she doesn’t think she deserves it. She has low self esteem so anything good that happens she a hard time accepting it. I guess in general just being able to help someone see that they are a good person and when good things happen believe in them and yourself.
My family is my first value and being a good person. The world is so different than when i grew up and i just feel that we need to be better to each other. To not judge someone and to see how they are as a person. I strive to be a better person daily and feel that if i am positive it might help someone else to be ?
Dealing with a negative person can have so many effects on not just them but you. When I come across someone who is negative i try and talk to them and see what is making them feel that way and if it’s something simple i offer some positive thinking that might make them see the situation a little differently. then there are some negative people that start to change how you are and those people just seem to be people that are so unhappy that no matter how hard you try and be positive they already have a wall up to block anything good. to me those people still need us to be positive and just be who we are and offer to be an ear if they need it. We can’t turn our back on everyone but we can decide who we are going to use our energy on and to what extent.
DREVA ST CLAIR
I’d like to work on self care and spiritual growth so that I can feel more positive and rejuvenated and have that rub off on other areas of my life. It’s so hard to find time to Yourself when you have young kids but its also really important for your Well being.
I’m the first person in my family to get a bachelor’s degree. To some that may not be much but my mom couldn’t afford to put me through college so I found a way to make it happen through scholarships and financial aid.
Also, I became a mother two weeks before I turned 23 and my two little girls are a dream come true.
LORNA WEBSTER
For me, I don’t know that I ever learned to ‘love’ myself, but what I did realize is that the outer shell is not important at all. I love myself inside and that’s what’s important. As you say, we all will be old and wrinkled eventually there’s no avoiding it, but many are born with disfigurements or can never look the way society wants. What I’m saying is, the more we throw off society’s expectations (something really hard, even I feel them), the happier we are. Societal expectations are there to make us unhappy, to make us ‘buy’ but the truth is if your personality is beautiful you will be beautiful. It shines out of your face and the people who love you will see it. It’s why we have ‘guilty’ crushes on ‘ugly’ people. Beauty is totally subjective and made up of so much more than the external shell. Sorry if this is a bit preachy, but I learned this over time!
You are so right that those people are unhappy and spread it outwards. I have a lot of hard things in my life and am a realist, but once I started facing my issues, I lost all that bitterness. Now I love to bring people up and support them. I find the best way to tackle that negativity, if you’re brave enough is to point out exactly how harsh and evil they are being. If that doesn’t work, I tell them ‘I actually don’t care about your opinion and I hope some day you are able to heal from whatever makes you so hateful’ that drives them absolutely nuts but sometimes it’s what they need to reflect on their behaviour. At the end of the day if somebody loves you they will support you and if they are not supporting you, don’t listen to them. A loving, supporting person will give their advice and voice their concerns in a way filled with care for you. Nasty, bitter concerns have no place, you know who you are and what you are doing, ignore them!
SHANNA ELISE UPTERGROVE
I am grateful for my patience. Maybe being deaf has taught me that, but I love that I can listen to my children and even my mom and help them out and be grateful that I can help them!
Growing up, I did not appreciate being deaf. I think I fully embraced it after I got pregnant with my first child. today, I don’t mind it at all, it is a good thing that I can turn my hearing aid off when I want and enjoy total silence. But not being able to hear has helped me become closer to my kids and family.
MELISSA A CRAIG
One project that I want to start doing that I just simply had the time for is compiling a family recipe cookbook, to hand down to my girls, I seriously did not have the time when they were younger, but now I have a little more free time and would love to compile recipes from my grandmothers. From some of my aunts and from our gatherings, to some of their favorite things they loved growing up. I think it would be great for them to keep and learn from.
I was always upset I never went back and finished college, at 35, I decided it was time. I went back and got not just one but 2 degrees! I made me feel accomplished and it showed my girls who were in middle school at the time if you work hard anything is achievable.
I WAS AN OVERWEIGHT KID, ALWAYS HAD BEEN SINCE THE YOUNGEST PICTURES OF ME, I NEVER had a time when I was thin, match this with moving all the time, I went to 14 different schools growing up, this meant for no long-term friendships even in the tween or teen years. I now have tried to maintain a healthy weight and have been steadfast with my own children in where we live. I set the goal of living in the same school district and home while my kids grew up, I never wanted them to feel like the new kid in school. They have gone to sleep away camp and had other experiences where they were meeting new people but I wanted them to have lasting friendships that I so lacked growing up. now my daughter a senior in high school has had the same best friend since first grade. and my youngest a freshman has a friend well a few of them since kindergarten. I just know that small thing has made me and them happier and healthier, so the thing that has changed is the nomad lifestyle.
PATRICIA WRIGHT
I will tell you of a project I did and am thankful for. I had always wanted a record(book like) of my life. I did it over 30 years ago. I am glad I did because 8 years ago i had a brain enuryism and forgot a lot. If I hadn’t written and typed it i may never have had my story to pass on.
PATTY
Actually, I was dreaming to be a travel blogger. I came to the U.S. three years ago and my first trip was to see Cherry blossom in D.C. while I was three months pregnancy. My husband and I enjoyed road trips and we had been at 23 U.S. states. Our dream trip is to travel from coast to coast by trains. In reality, my travel plans are held due to I have to care my little girl 24/7 I don’t even have free time to spend on my own. However, there were several great moments that our family spend together. I am looking forward for a right time near future to visit pleasant places in the U.S. with my lovely family.
To dealing with the negative people is to start by understanding the reasons for their negativity. I would say almost all negativity has its roots in fears. So better way is trying to understand them with mind positively.
SHANNON F
THE ways I choose to deal with negative people VARIES. I’m not sure if it is the best but I have learned that it’s also not worth letting them consume my thoughts or life. Sometimes I have to SET boundaries with myself or them, Remind myself THAT their negativity is theirs them and not Mine, OFFER a positive perspective or attitude, understand that what they are going through Is most likely temporary, OR if needed i keep my interactions to a minimum or not at all if THE negativity is too much to be AROUND on a regular basis. I have noticed that negative people are much easier to deal with if my own self-worth is high.
AMYBELLE2001
I just understand that if someone is negative, it is something that they are dealing with, not me. So I don’t pay attention to it and try to understand why they are that way. It’s hard and not always the easiest thing to do.
SUSAN CHRISTY
I get spa treatments to take care of myself physically, and spend as much time as possible with those i love to take care of my mental/spiritual needs.
My dream as a child was to get married and be a housewife in my small Kansas town, which did not happen. but I achieved something even better. I was in the travel industry for over 30 years and saw the world. I’m sure if my big dream had come true I wouldn’t have seen much outside of Kansas.
PAULA R
I was a secretary when I started working, a few years later I became a dispatcher, years later I became a repairman, one of a couple women working with all men. Then my most important job: A mother.
BARBARA PACIFIC
I dreamed of going back to school and at the age of 41 I enrolled in college, I graduate this June with my associates Degree in Social work I will work with foster children. I feel so very proud of myself. I feel empowered as a woman! I would love any makeup if you have any Too Faced cosmetics would be amazing I would really love any cosmetics the palettes look amazing
PAMELA SLOSS
I am grateful I survived being a survivor of suicide. I lost my husband very tragically in 2004, 5 weeks after he returned from A Year in Iraq. There were days I couldn’t get out of bed. And other days I wanted to be dead. It Took a whole lot of counseling and support from some stronger friends and family who put up with all the HURT, anger and lashing out. They HELD together the pieces of me. And I’m so glad to still be here.
ALISON BRAIDWOOD
I always wanted to live overseas. So i did. I moved to England after I finished university, and lived in London for 17 years. I always felt at home in London, and loved the mix of cultures. I’ll never regret doing it. It does broaden your horizons.
SAMANTHA
None of my family went to college so me being the first was a dream that i surpassed. Sheer determination got me through.

Sephora inside JCPenney Last Minute Gift Ideas
Ho Ho Ho! Santa is coming to town in a couple of days and I know some of you still haven’t finished shopping or just started to shop! Nothing to worry about because we still have some time left.

Inside the store, you can easily find anything quickly because they display gift products all around the store with labeling like Makeup Palettes and Gift Sets with big letters. If you need to find any specific items, you can always ask for help from the pretty ladies who work there.

“Write it on your heart that every day is the best day in the year.” – Ralph Waldo Emerson
Did someone put a big ballon, or two, in my stomach last night ? Because I woke up with a big belly today. Nope, not a ballon but a growing baby inside me. I’m finally in my third trimester and you know it’s the time that the baby starts growing fast!
As far as this pregnancy goes, I feel like it’s going a lot fastest and easier than my first one. I felt the baby move a lot quicker as well. I’m starting to get heartburn, back pain, visiting the bathroom too often, not able to sleep at night and swelling feet but I’m trying to enjoy all of the moments and embrace my growing belly though. Because not everyone can have a chance to experience this miracle moment so why spend time complaining, right!
At this point of my pregnancy, a lot of moms-to-be already have their birth plans planned out. I’m still deciding between going for a repeat c-section or a VBAC. I think I will be able to decide after my next ultrasound to see how big and the position of my baby is.
Next year will be a big year for me. There are so many things to look forward to. Not only we will be welcoming our second baby in early February next year but also with my blogging hobby turning into a business. I’m currently in the process of rebranding and making everything better. I hope it will be finished early next year for you to see.
Now let’s get back to this pregnancy topic a little bit and talk about the third trimester. I feel like a lot of mommies-to-be are trying their best to get their nursery together, starting to pack their hospital bags and get some last minute baby stuff together but are totally forgetting about themselves. To help you with what you might forget to care for yourself with, I created this blog post to share the best gifts to give for a pregnant lady who’s in their third trimester. It won’t be gifts for babies just to be clear it will only be gifts for mommy.
If you want to know what’s on the list, check them out below.
All of the gifts above will surly ease your pain and make your last trimester go smoothly and easier than without them.
