Some gift suggestions for Mother’s Day
WE’D LIKE to think that you consider your mom as your best friend, and these gifts will surely strengthen the bond both of you share. They will also give you plus points for the next time you need something from mom.
RUSTAN’S
Rustan’s offers a wide variety of possible gifts for Mother’s Day, from beauty products to kitchen gadgets.
Your mother is already the most beautiful woman in the world, but it wouldn’t hurt to give her products from French beauty brand Nuxe, featuring Nuxe Nuxellence Detox, which smoothens, regenerates and revives dull complexion, revealing the skin’s youthful glow. From the same company comes Nuxe Nuxellence Eclat, which targets the core of the skin cells to maintain optimum energy levels for skin that is re-plumped and illuminated all day.
For va va voom hair for mom, give her the combo of the Babyliss Curl Pods for perfect and kink-free curls, or for another option, the Sassoon 25MM Tourmaline Ceramic Straightener.
Jewelry, of course, is always a favorite, so give mom (no pun intended) the Mother of Pearl Watch Set, which includes pieces in stunning two-tone gold and pink or navy dial with pearling indices from Anne Klein.
Mom’s arenas, of course, includes the home, so make it easier with gifts such as the Cuisinart Food Processor, which eases chopping and shredding with stainless steel mixing blades powerful enough to knead bread dough, or the OXO Handheld Spiralizer that creates vegetable noodles, curly fries, and garnishes.
EVER BILENA
The local cosmetics brand aims to treat mom this year with gifts such as the EB Naturals Hand Cream, packed with Vitamin E, providing moisture to make hands softer and smoother. It comes in two scents — Femme Floral and Sweet Rose.
The company’s Sunflower Oil also makes for an ideal hair, face, and body treatment, promising to lighten dark spots, regenerate dark skin, and remove long-wearing makeup without stripping off skin’s moisture. It’s also useful to make hair smoother, and prevent dryness and strand breakage.
VILLA DEL CONTE
Make mom’s heart melt with the I Love Mom gift box from Villa del Conte featuring artisanal chocolates from Italy. The attractive pink box contains 10 pralines. The boxes are available at Villa del Conte branches in Greenbelt 5, Century City Mall, Shangri-la Mall, Resorts World, Alabang Town Center, SM Megamall, and Robinsons Magnolia.
MICHAEL KORS
Luxe-looking items dominate the options for Mother’s Day at Michael Kors, and we’re sure she’ll love the Mercer Large Metallic Leather Dome Satchel, a dome-shaped bag in pebbled leather with gold-tinted hardware, or the Mercer Medium Crystal-Embellished Leather Crossbody, a simple square bag embellished with crystals.
Staples such as a smartphone wristlet or leather clutches are also clever options, while floral-spicy eau de parfum Wonderlust will surely leave a memory with mom.
