With this assortment of super-cool Mother’s Day gifts, sorted into Beauty, Technology and Lifestyle categories, Mom will appreciate you’ve gone above and beyond the underwhelming gestures of flowers and candy to give her a gift that’s truly useful—and that takes her personal proclivities into account.

 

*************BEAUTY*************

Branché Silk Charmeuse Pillow Cases
Belle De Nuit Eye Masques
(www.BrancheBeautySleep.com) – From $49
Made of the finest quality mulberry silk, Branché pillow slips let hair and skin slip and slide as you toss and turn, preventing knotty, broken hair and creases in the skin. These posh pillow cases nourish with 18 naturally-occurring amino acids and also provide anti-microbial properties through high copper content.  Not only is hair and skin healthier with Branché, but the pillow slips also extend the life of a blowout, making it perfect for on-the-go moms who don’t have time to restyle their hair every day. The oversized Belle De Nuit Eye Masque also helps rejuvenate your skin while providing a deeper sleep through light filtering, especially from light pollution from electronics kept near the bed like alarm clocks, cell phones, laptops and iPads, and protecting the delicate skin around the eye area. With these slumber accessories, Mom will get her beauty sleep every night of the year.

 

BMR Electric Facial Toner (www.BMRBeauty.com/us) – $395
After the age of 30, facial muscles naturally atrophy, which leads to hallowing of the face and creasing of the skin. The innovative, FDA-cleared BMR Facial Toner uses natural, comfortable stimulation in the form of gentle electrical pulses to help enhance the beauty and youthful appearance of your face. Full results are noticeable after a 12-week period of using the device for five days a week for just 20 minutes at a time. This is another great product that Mom can enjoy in the comfort and privacy of her home while achieving the same effect that skincare professionals offer.

 

Rodan + Fields Macro Exfoliator (www.RodanAndFields.com) – $279
Developed by Drs. Rodan and Fields, the Rodan + Fields MACRO Exfoliator is an at-home, hand-held exfoliation tool that features patent-pending DOC-SMART technology, which provides optimal levels of macro-exfoliation for each facial cosmetic zone. By automatically varying the amount of exfoliation, the MACRO Exfoliator tailors the user experience—from deeper action in thick skinned areas like the forehead, to gentler in more delicate areas, such as the eye region. The result is professional-level, immediate and long-term improvements in texture, tone, and overall radiance. Used for only five minutes once a week, Rodan + Fields MACRO Exfoliator will have Mom feeling and looking younger in no time.
