It’s not always Mum who can be tricky to buy for. Mother’s Day can present any number of gift-giving quandaries! We’ve answered some of your most pressing questions and given you something to think about ...

Do I get my boyfriend's mom a Mother's Day gift?

Ahh! A scary question! Big breath—and try not to panic. Mothers-in-law and potential mothers-in-law can be super-tricky to buy for. If you’re not sure whether you should be shopping for them, consider your relationship with them first. If your relationship is new and you want to impress your new squeeze, picking up a thoughtful treat could really help build a loving relationship with their mum. An Adore Beauty gift voucher offers you the best of both worlds. It shows that you’re thinking of them but also puts the power back in their hands. They can pick out whatever they want, thanks to you!

For a beloved mother-in-law, we love SALT BY HENDRIX Body Oil 100ml . It’s affordable, beautifully packaged, and shows excellent taste. It’s sure to make them smile and think happy thoughts of you whenever they go to use it. They can pick up all their favourite Mother’s Day gifts online!

Should I buy my wife a Mother's Day gift?

If you’ve ever heard the phrase ‘happy wife, happy life’, then it’s definitely one to think about when approaching this question. Even if you don’t have children yet, it’s still nice to treat your loved one on this kind and thoughtful day. Mothering comes in all shapes and forms, so if she’s been up all night with the puppy (or a sick you!), you could show your gratitude for her calming ways with a little treat.

With so many scents to choose from, the Dr. Bronner Rainbow Sampler is an eco-friendly treat for the bathroom you can both enjoy. You could also pep up their day with the Sensori+ Air Detoxifying Aromatic Soy Candle Macedon Trail 3441 260g, which works to purify the air with an essential blend of oils. Delightful!

Should I get my pregnant wife a Mother's Day gift?

A pregnant woman deserves all the love you could possibly give her—especially when she’s grouchy, hormonal, and tired. Seeing as she is indeed a mother-to-be, why not surprise her with a gift on this special day? A thoughtful gift is sure to make her smile, even when her ankles are swollen! The WelleCo SLEEP WELLE Calming Tea Refillable Caddy - 50 Tea Bags will help the sleepiest mum-in-the-making catch up on some essential Zs.

Just because she’s pregnant doesn’t mean she can’t look adorable! Mother’s Day makeup gifts make great presents. A gorgeous eyeshadow palette like this one from M.A.C will open up her options and give her a whole new pregnancy look to play with. And you’ll benefit from her newfound confidence too!

Should I get Mother's Day gifts for Grandma?

It’s such a lovely idea to celebrate your grandma on Mother’s Day. Let’s face it: you wouldn’t be here if it wasn’t for her! You don’t have to make a grand gesture either. Just pick out something sweet and thoughtful, and you’re bound to bring her some joy. Help her feel glamorous with iconic Nuxe Huile Prodigieuse OR Multi-Purpose Dry Golden Oil. It can be used all over the body and hair, and she’ll be sure to love its delightful scent. And who doesn’t love a candle? This affordable Circa Home Pear & Lime Miniature Candle 60g will show her you care without breaking the bank.

This Mother’s Day, celebrate the people you love by giving them a gift that can be delivered right to their door. Even if you can’t be with them in person, you can still let them know how much they mean to you. Let’s celebrate all the mums!
