This year, Mother’s Day is no doubt going to look and feel very different from previous celebrations. With stay-at-home orders still in effect for the foreseeable future, that annual Sunday brunch gathering or trip to the spa is out of the question. Quarantine life aside, though, that doesn’t mean we can’t treat those special superwomen in our life come May 11th. From luxurious face masks that will bring a sense of pampering into one’s own bathroom to fun and innovative makeup staples for that next Zoom meeting, we’ve rounded up some noteworthy beauty buys to help put a smile on her face, whether that be your mom, aunty, your best friend — whoever. Click through the gallery below to see our edit of 11 beauty-focused Mother’s Day gifts:

Mother’s Day Gifts
19/99 Beauty Multi-Purpose Trio
($46, 19/99 Beauty)
19/99 Beauty, a brand new Canadian cosmetic line, immediately caught our attention with its ageless beauty ethos: “We deserve a more open and multi-generational dialogue about what beauty looks like at all stages of our lives, from ages 19 to 99,” stated the brand in a press release. #Love. If mom likes beauty products that pull double, even triple-duty, then bag her 19/99 Beauty’s multitasking starter set: the red Precision Colour Pencil can be used on the eyes and lips, and the clear High-Shine Gloss is made for eyes, lips or cheeks. Use it alone or on top of makeup.

Pixi +Vit C Priming Oil
($38, Shoppers Drug Mart)
There’s a big dewy difference between an oily sheen and a radiant one, and Pixi’s new tri-phase dry-oil nails the latter. Infused with brightening Vitamin C, antioxidant-rich turmeric and hydrating carrot oil, this priming oil sinks quickly into the skin and preps it for whatever makeup comes afterwards.

Omorovicza The Cure
($362, Omorovicza)
Don’t let the small vials fool you. Omorovicza’s 9-day ampoule treatment is like pressing the reset button on stressed-out, tired-looking skin. Exfoliating acids, precious oils, ginseng and caffeine mean business to smooth uneven texture, detoxify and restore skin’s elasticity. Think of it as the at-home version of a visit to the aesthetician.

Elizabeth Grant white jade face massager
($40, Elizabeth Grant)
A jade roller has been an age-old tool in Chinese beauty routines for centuries. Marrying skincare with self-care, the self-massage device is known to boost the circulation and blood flow beneath the skin granting a visible glow. Mom can either use it on clean skin at room temperature or chill it in the fridge beforehand.

Mother’s Day Gifts
Mahalo The Petal Hydrating Mask
($95 USD, Mahalo)
Really encourage mom to carve out some “her” time each day. Gentle enough for daily use, this ultra-luxe facial mask contains 28 skin-coddling ingredients (think: honey, white clay, hyaluronic acid and rose oil) for an intense 10-20 minute hydrating treatment. Beauty ritual tip: Convince mom to turn her tub into a personal spa session with a face mask and bath soak pairing. Ahhh… relaxing.

If you’re buying for a false-lash lover then consider this: Known for its high-quality, plush mink falsies, Velour Lashes recently released ultra-black lash adhesive that doubles as wing-worthy eyeliner. The no-budge, pigment-rich formula can also be worn solo, and is free from many nasties, like parabens, formaldehydes and phthalates.

Oribe The Gold Lust All Over Oil

Oribe’s new hair oil gives tresses that shiny, fresh-from-the-salon look, but its ultra-nourishing formula goes far beyond your strands. Formulated with 17 oils — grape seed, coconut, olive and jojoba to name a mere few — this antioxidant and fatty acid-rich elixir can also be used to moisturize and soften the body, face and décolleté.
