May 11 is Mother's Day.
Make your mum feel special this Sunday by gifting her something she'll love but will also help her stay beautiful and healthy. Running out of ideas? Here's a list of products and offers you can impress your mum with on Mother's Day:
1. Beauty gift sets: Gift sets are pretty to look at and pack in several products which complement each other. You can pick up something with toiletries such as shower gel, body lotion, scented soaps, etc. Another gift hamper you can pick up is one with cosmetics in it. These days, several organic brands also pack in their products in gift sets. Opt for these if you are unsure what your mum may like as they will be milder on the skin and chemical-free too. Here are some gift hampers to choose from.
2. Gym membership: Making your mum fit is a noble idea and the best way to get her started is by getting her a gym membership. Several gyms offer discounts and deals which not just incorporate gymming but other activities as well such as aerobics, swimming, etc. Find one closest to your home so that your mum can be regular with it or go for big gym chains such as Gold's, Talwalkars, Leena Morgre's, and so on.
3. Health check-up: An annual health check-up is a must for everyone especially as you grow older. In order to make sure your mum is in the pink of her health, gift her a health check-up package. Since it is a gift, you can make sure she goes for the tests without fail. After all, it is your turn to take care of her just as she used to when you fell sick. Here are some options you can choose from.
4. Healthy treats: It may not be a very conventional gift but something which will ensure your mum is keeping healthy. You can customise a gift hamper full of healthy treats such as green tea, essential vitamin supplements, diet snacks, fruits, etc. Here's a selection of women friendly fitness products you canc choose from.
5. Salon and spa vouchers: Your mum takes care of your every need. Return the favour by gifting her salon and spa vouchers where she can be pampered. An aromatherapy massage or a mani-pedi with a new haircut choice is yours. Make sure you drop her off and pick her up to make it even more special. Several salons offer combo offers like these but to be safe, opt for a reputed one with several chains around the country. Here are a few options.
6. Walking shoes: If your mum isn't the type who will go the gym, you can always get her to go on brisk walks by gifting her walking shoes. She may not know which one is best-suited for her so find something which will be light and easy to walk in. Several leading sports brands offer different varieties of shoes for women. Take a pick or take her along to the shop and let her choose a pair.
7. Cook for her: She's made sure you eat all your meals and stay healthy. You too can show her how much you care by cooking something for her.
