It’s nearly that time of year again for celebrating all the important women in your life across the country for Mother’s Day.
From mums, to grandmothers, aunties, sisters and all family and loved ones in between, it’s a day to show appreciation for any strong leading woman in your life.
But it can creep up on us all very quickly at the beginning of each year, with it falling on Sunday, March 30. It can be hard to know what gift to give, and getting flowers can become repetitive.
Perhaps some of you are looking to shake up the Mother’s Day presents this year, and swap the boquet for something a little more bouji.
Let’s take a look at our gift guide below…
Carmex mini lip balms (£9.99)
Carmex is a staple for many of us in our handbags, especially as the cold weather continues to bite across the country. You can never go wrong with a lip set – and even better when it’s going to protect your lips.
