Mother’s Day is almost and if you haven’t found the right gift for mami yet this year, don’t panic! Since we’ll be celebrating our mothers virtually, it’ll be sweet to create a memorable gift she remembers post-pandemic. Here’s how you’ll win best present of the year, set up a relaxing spa-inspired atmosphere where she can zen out with key beauty buys. While it can be hard to get creative, there are plenty of ways you can bring this alive to her with the right products and pro tips. Ahead, Sephora Collection’s National Makeup Artist, Helen Phillips shares her go-to product for creating the ultimate wellness spa treatment for your mom this year.
Anti-Aging Gem
According to the professionall makeup artist, this one hidden gem is winning over customers all over. “This cream is great on your face AND your wallet! With peptide and fruit acids, this cream will help to firm and gently exfoliate your face. I also love using this on my hands and feet! We are all missing our TLC at the nail spa, and this cream is an excellent way to maintain your soft skin,” said Helen
Elite Tools
This 3-piece set of facial sculpting tools for face and neck is incredible. The Gua Sha plate is amazing for relaxation, stimulating your lymphatic system, and getting a glow. I love to use this tool at night to calm down—for added serenity I dip it in very warm water to heat up the stone. This helps to open up pores and allows your skincare to penetrate more deeply. Alternatively, in the morning the natural cool stone is great for depuffing. The Rose Quartz knob is just the ticket to get your eye puffs to subside quickly.

Daily Dose
These vitamins will save you from those waves of stress. These feelings can overcome us all and taking two of these will help to soothe you and get you back to your cool, calm, and collected self. Plus, the gummy flavor of Berry Verbena is a super tasty treat.

Sephora Collection Dry Brush
Take a little extra time for your body too. This brush will make a huge difference in the overall texture of your skin by exfoliating right before you hop in the shower. The shape of the handle makes it super easy to hold on to and brush your dry skin. It is also an amazing prep tool before you apply self-tanner!

Better Together
Gift mom these two dynamic duos from the Sephora Collection. She’ll thank you later for how soft and hydrated her skin is. “I would suggest using the body scrub to start off and get your skin used to exfoliation, then you can amp it up with the dry body brush. Always finish with a super moisturizing lotion like the Sephora Collection All Day Body Hydrator,” advised Sephora’s National MUA.
