    Hello, hi. You've clicked through to this article, so I know you're looking for inspiration on what to get your mother/grandmother/parent figure/best friend with offspring this Mother's Day.

    CBS

    Fortunately, I have birthed many-a-human, and can give you this much-desired guidance.

    Continue reading for a plethora of ideas on what to bestow on the woman this May (and not a single cleaning device in sight):

    1. These perfectly elegant drop earrings, which she can wear with absolutely anything.

    2. This luscious collagen-boosting eye cream, because she's always talking about her tired eyes.

    Dope Skin Co

    This little tube of goodness is formulated with retinoids, vitamin C, hyaluronic acid and peptides, designed to fade dark circles and reduce wrinkles. Of course, I don't expect you to take my word for it — take the word of 98% of participants in a clinical study that found their skin was more hydrated; 93% that felt their eye area was smoother; and 80% who agreed their under-eye dark circles had been reduced.

    Buy it from Dope Skin Co. for $27.30 (RRP$39)

    3. This vegan, all-natural hemp skincare pack, which is uber-hydrating, smells divine and is 20% off for first-time customers.

    Hemp Co. Australia

    If you've not yet been aware of the benefits of hemp seed oil, allow me to introduce you. Full of antioxidants and anti-inflammatories, hemp seed oil is rich with essential fatty acids that will pack moisture into your skin without clogging. Start the mother in your life on her journey to the best skin yet with this brilliant pack (now four-fifths of the price, but she doesn't need to know that).

    Buy the six-piece skincare pack from Hemp Co. Australia for $144 (RRP$204)

    4. This pre-mixed sparkling Pina Colada by Malibu that'll make her feel like she's escaped reality and entered a tropical paradise.

    We all know and love Malibu for it's delicious and classic Caribbean rum — and now she can experience the same joy from a canned cocktail. Serve it up to her in a pretty glass with a slice of pineapple the next time you're over or pack a few in an esky to enjoy with a special picnic that you plan yourself (give her the day off from running the show!)

    Buy it from Celebrations for $5.99

    5. This smart ceramic mug that will ensure your mum's bean juice never goes cold again.

    Amazon Australia

    I do not know what it's like to have a hot cup of tea. Like, I can not even fathom the sensation. Who has the time to sit with a mug in hand, waiting for it to reach the optimum temperature before it gets cold? Enter this ceramic mug, which will keep your drink at the exact temperature you prefer, is controlled via app, and sits on a charging coaster — ready for whenever you need a caffeine kick. 

    Plus, there are six colours to choose from, so your mum can always tell theirs from everyone else's (when all family members inevitably buy one, too, after seeing your mum's mug).

    6. This gorgeous fresh-scented fragrance diffusor that’ll make her home smell like luxury.

    This can make any room feel like a Pinterest-worthy oasis. Giving off notes of rose, vanilla and sandalwood, the diffusor fills any space with a soothing and calming aroma — plus, it lasts for such a long time. Also available in the collection is a gift set with a candle and hand wash to take your gift to the next level.

    Buy it from CIRCA for $52.95

    7. This funny-looking but effective electric eye massager, to give her eyes the ultimate indulgence.

    Amazon Australia

    Chances are she's been staring at a screen all day. This electric eye massager uses air compression and gentle vibrations to encourage relaxation around the eyes. There are built-in music and heat compress functions, and since it operates on battery, it's easily portable from home to office — though fair warning, she might attract stares.  

    Buy it from Amazon Australia for $229

    8. A HelloFresh subscription, because she cooked and fed you throughout childhood, so the least you can do is shout her dinner for a month.

    The meal kit configurations are endless. Order a meal for a week, three meals for a month — whatever your budget, HelloFresh can sort it for you. Every dietary need under the sun has also been thought of, with vegetarian, protein-rich, carb-smart among others as options.

    Promising review: "...Everything I ate was easy to make, truly scrumptious, and taught me techniques I can use when I cook other meals.

    Best of all, HelloFresh is way more affordable than getting the ingredients yourself at the grocery store. Plus, you're never left with extra produce that's destined to rot in your crisper drawer before you throw it away."

    9. A Ticketmaster experience, because things fade but memories are *forever*.

    10. This gel-to-light foam cleanser, rich with indigenous Australian wild limes and antioxidant goodness.

    Mariela Summerhays/BuzzFeed

    As a mum of three (gorgeous but attention-needing) kids, everyday experiences — like my morning skin routine — need to have an element of self-care in them. Rich in vitamin C, antioxidants and AHA’s, the Australian wild limes in this cleanser gently exfoliate; lactic acid, papaya and pomegranate extract help to brighten dull complexions; while antibacterial properties heal blemish-prone skin. Lastly, aloe vera soothes and hydrates, leaving skin feeling and looking healthy, soft and supple.

    Promising review: "This latest must-have skincare brand, which is absolutely bursting with Aussie native goodness, is divine. I adore their Balancing Cleanser, which feels soothing and uber-hydrating when lathering on. The clincher though? That citrus-y, Australian native scent that instantly relaxes you at the end of the day. It's worth every dollar."

    11. And the super-hydrating moisturiser, which leaves wind-bitten skin feeling and looking soft and dewy.

    Mariela Summerhays/BuzzFeed

    The Australian-made, cruelty-free moisturiser is formulated with wild rosella (high in betaine for barrier protection against dehydration), shea butter, niacinamide, squalane and more, leaving skin with lasting hydration, firmness and suppleness (and unsurprisingly, the cream smells magical).

    Promising review: "I adore everything that Habitual Beauty produce (when it comes to skincare, food, you name it; if it has Australian native ingredients in it, I'm sold) but the Nourishing Moisturiser has to be one of my favourites. The cream is such a beautiful texture, and my skin feels soft and hydrated hours later."

    12. These two-tone, reversible hoops, which will suit any outfit she ever wears again.

    Mejuri

    13. A Booktopia gift certificate, because nothing soothes the soul better than a new book.

    14. These OUAI chill pills that will make her feel like she's at a luxurious spa even when she's just at home in her own bath.

    @theouai/Instagram

    These bath bombs contain jojoba seed oil, safflower seed oil and hemp seed oil to soothe, moisturise and nourish your skin. They also have a divine, floral scent that will make it incredibly difficult for her to get out of the tub when the water cools down.

    Buy it from Sephora Australia for $46

    15. This limited edition Peppa Hart x ECOYA Mandarin Gin Madison candle — because it's cheaper than paying for her to go on a Mediterranean cruise (but smells no less zesty!)

    ECOYA

    This luxurious candle is a citrus dream, starring tangerine, mandarin and orange with starfruit, mango and goji berry atop a powdery and feminine base of violet and musk. An instant dopamine hit, she'll be stoked.

    16. This kakadu plum-enriched sugar and sand scrub that will truly exfoliate the day away.
