Mother’s Day is just around the corner. It’s crazy to think Sunday May 10 will be a day in which we celebrate moms around the United States indoors, but I personally believe it is one of the most important holidays of the year so you should really do something special.
Mother’s Day in my home typically consisted of all the kids getting together to make the moms brunch with mimosas at my grandparents house. Later in the day my Uncle Robert made steak and lobsters. It was hands down the fanciest holiday meal we ate all year and it was all for the mommas!
At the very least mothers deserve one day in which they are celebrated, appreciated, and spoiled. You may not be in the celebrating mood this year after being stuck inside with your kiddies for days on end, but I’m here to tell you that you deserve to take a moment for you. Below, I compiled a few items I think will help you feel a little pampered on your special day.
Add a little bit of glitz to your look with minimal effort. These will still look chic post quarantine.
$12.99, Anthropologie.
If you’re dreaming of a vacation, look no further. Sol de Janeiro’s Brazilian Bum Bum Cream is heavenly and will instantly transport you to a tropical beach.
$20 for 75mL or $10 for a 25 mL, Sol de Janeiro.
Has your skin has been feeling a little oily while being stuck indoors? Innisfree has you covered. This clay mask will help remove oil without leaving your skin dry while simultaneously helping minimize your pores and removing dead skin cells.

Nothing ruins a fresh glass of rosé like it getting warm. Keep your rosé or any other wine you love perfectly chilled in this insulated stemless cup. If champagne is more your thing, see a flute option here.

As the seasons change it can be nice to switch up your daily athleisure wear. These Adidas shorts are made from recycled material and currently on sale.
$18, Adidas.
Sometimes an accessory makes all the difference to your look. A plain white tee is suddenly upgraded, a basic black turtleneck looks chic. These ombré resin hoops come in two colors, a smokey quartz or a warm blue grass.
$9.99, Madewell.
A good set of pajamas could help you sleep like a baby. I stumbled across this site that has a set featuring a floral cami, pants, and robe so you can feel like the Queen you are.

Enjoy a moment of relaxation with a bath bomb. This one features lavender and 100 mg of CBD to help ease your muscles.

If you live somewhere that getting outdoors is an option, you should continue to protect your face. Sunscreen is a must, always, but this cute hat can offer a bit more protection as things heat up.
$15.60, Columbia.
I’ve lately become a huge fan of adding items to my closet that have versatility. A scarf can be used so many ways that don’t include being around your neck. My personal favorites are as a headband, accessory to a neutral-colored bag, or even as a makeshift purse itself. This one comes in two color options that include spiced brown or off white.
$13.99, Auxiliary.
Since this whole quarantine started my lips have felt incredibly dry. No matter how much water I drink, my lips can’t seem to get back to their usual pout. If you’re struggling like me, you can try a hydrating lip mask from Sephora. If you want to hydrate another area of your body, you can try a hand mask, nose mask, butt sheet mask, or eye mask.
$3, Sephora.
Every quarantine day seems to be a bit different, but the only thing that has been able to boost my mood is exercise. AloMoves allows you to have complete access to their network of instructors offering not only yoga, but other fitness classes and meditation so you can focus on your physical and mental health.
$19.99/month or $199/year, AloMoves.
When this pandemic started, I decided to focus on trying to improve myself as much as I could during this forced down time. I started taking a free Yale course offered through Coursera that focuses on the science of well-being. I had already started a gratitude journal, but again was reminded of the benefits of gratitude. I highly recommend getting one if you don’t already have as it can really help you remember all of the amazing things going on in your life when the current newscycle can make it seem as things aren’t great.
$18, Riley.
Let’s face it, we’re all a month into quarantine with about another month to go, so if you’re going to buy alcohol you might as well buy it in bulk at this point. Enter the boxed wine. Now, before you laugh and say you could never I say to you, don’t knock it before you try it. At a price point of $19.99 for 3 liters, you aren’t getting that good of a deal on wine anywhere else. They offer multiple variations of wine so pick your poison accordinging.
$19.99, Bota Box.
A bold lip can change your attitude in an instant. You can go from not sure to boss b in about two minutes with a quick shade change. I highly recommend finding your perfect red, but whatever color makes you feel powerful, wear it proud. ColourPop’s Lippie Stix are easy to throw in any bag and come in sixteen gorgeous colors.
$7, ColourPop.
Remember spa days? I personally can’t wait for a good massage, but until then I will have to pretend. A great way to create the spa illusion is to have spa accessories including spa slippers.
$19.99, Ann Taylor.
Mani-pedi’s are an instant mood-lifter. It’s something the entire family can do together and it really helps decrease stress. Depending on how fancy you want to get, you can transform your home to feel like a trip to the salon.

Sleep like a baby with this aromatherapy eye mask. The soft silk is filled with lavender and flax seed to immediately force you to relax wherever you are with whatever is happening.
