See The World in PINK's Gift Guide For Mother's Day

I love when Mother's Day comes around - I am both a daughter and a mother, so I get the best of both worlds on this day! 

Personally, Mother's Day isn't just about presents - it is about appreciating your Mom and taking the time to thank her for everything she has done for you! (I have a step-mom and Grandmas too that I always remember to do something special for, or if they are out of town I make sure to call and send all of my love!)

On that note, I do love giving gifts for Mother's Day - I know my Mom personally does not take enough time to treat herself so she deserves a little something! Here are some suggestions for a great Mother's Day gift:

1. Treat Mom To a Pedicure (or their favorite spa treatment)

This is probably my Mom's favorite spa treatment and she never just treats herself to one! I always get myself one too and make a lunch date and spa day out of it! It is the perfect way to treat her and to spend some quality time together! 

2. Find a Subscription Box Suited To Her Taste

Everyone has their own individual tastes, but the box I would recommend most for Mother's Day would be Bath Time Box - pictured here is the March 2016 box. They are $29 with free shipping and you are supporting an awesome Alberta company. You receive 5 bath time products each month - in past boxes we have received soaps, bath bombs, scrubs, bath oils, skincare products, candles. The best part is everything is natural and handmade products! This is a great indulgent gift to remind Mom to take time for herself and relax! (you can check out my past reviews here to see what I received in past boxes)

If bath products might not be up her alley, there are subscription boxes for everything out there - makeup, healthy snacks, lifestyle boxes, hobbies, etc.

November 2014 Ipsy Glam Bag - Beauty Subscription Review and Unboxing

Ipsy is one of the inexpensive beauty bag sample subscriptions. You receive 4-5 deluxe sample size or full size products each month. The cost is $10 US (+ $4.95 shipping to Canada). 

Ipsy is generally make-up products with a mix of skin, nail, and hair products based on a beauty profile you complete. There is usually 12-18 products that are selected from each month! You can view your "glam room" online that tells you all the products you will receive each month (I really like to keep it a surprise so I don't check ahead of time!) You also receive a make-up bag with your products.

Here is a look at the November 2014 Ipsy Bag:

This month's theme is "Girl Meets Glitter" and the make-up bag it came in is awesome!
