Motherhood is one of the most rewarding and challenging roles a woman can take on. The joy and love that comes with raising children is undeniable, but it can also be exhausting and overwhelming. It's important for moms to take care of themselves both physically and emotionally, so they can be the best versions of themselves for their families. Self-care is a crucial component of this, yet it's often the first thing to go when life gets busy...I know I have been guilty of that. That's why it's important to remind moms of the importance of self-care, and what better way to do that than with a thoughtful gift?
As Mother's Day approaches, many people are thinking about how to honor the special moms in their lives. While flowers and chocolates are sweet and thoughtful, this year consider giving a gift that encourages self-care. I made a list of my favorite Amazon purchases and gifts from my sweet boyfriend that have helped me stay sane and prevent breakdowns in my busy life! These items are mom-tested and approved (by Me), and would make great gifts for any mom this Mother's Day.
Foot Repair Ointment
A foot repair cream can be an unexpected and delightful gift for moms who deserve a little pampering. With all the time they spend running around taking care of their family, their feet can get dry and rough. When my 7 year old rubs her smooth little feet against my rough heels and say, "Mommy, you need to shave your feet. It feels crusty," that's when I'm reminded to whip out my ointment. It works wonders and I've used it for years!
Electric Callus Remover
This gift can help them take care of their feet without having to make a trip to the salon. With busy schedules and lots of responsibilities, this handy device can save them time and money while still giving them the soft and smooth feet they deserve. It would make a great pair with the Feet Ointment!
Foot Massager
This foot massager may be a pricier gift, but with all its amazing functions, it's definitely worth it for Mother's Day! Not only can it soothe sore feet and improve circulation, but it also offers heated massage and adjustable settings for a truly personalized experience!
Neck & Shoulder Heating Pad
A neck and shoulder pad can be a wonderful gift for moms because it can provide relief from tension and stress that often accumulates in those areas. With busy schedules and lots of responsibilities, moms can easily get knots and sore muscles in their neck and shoulders, and a pad that provides heat and massage can help them relax and unwind. I especially loved using this after 12 hours working in the hospital and needed to unwind before going to bed!
Hair Remover
This facial hair remover is easy and a painless way to remove unwanted facial hair. It saves time and money from going to the salon to get waxed or threading. My teenage daughter always grabs mine...I should just buy her own 🤔.
