Mother’s Day is nearly here, giving us the perfect excuse to spoil the most important women in our lives with a little something special. Whether you’re shopping for your mum, step-mum, mentor or glam-ma, treat them to a present they’re guaranteed to love with a pampering makeup gift and the promise of some much-needed me-time. Here are our top picks…

IF SHE LOVES LIPSTICK

Treat her to the perfect pout with a lipstick shade she wouldn’t usually go for. We recommend Colour Elixir Lipstick, which comes in the full spectrum of ultra-flattering hues, enriched with vitamin E, shea, avocado and aloe butters for the ultimate hit of hydration. One swipe delivers a full-colour satin finish – ideal for busy women on the go – and the selection of colours available means you can custom-create her very own ‘lipstick wardrobe’.

IF SHE WEARS A SMOKEY EYE

A suits-all blush-hued eyeshadow palette is the ultimate makeup gift for any beauty addict. Whether she likes to wear a wash of luminous colour or craft a flawlessly-blended smokey eye, our Masterpiece Nude Palette in Rose Nudes will slot easily into her routine. With eight velvety shades to try in each palette, she can contour, define and highlight eyes to her heart’s content, resulting in the dreamiest rose gold eyeshadow look.

IF SHE LOVES SPEEDY MAKEUP

A skincare-makeup hybrid is her solution to a 5-minute morning routine. The Miracle Pure range is infused with skin loving ingredients, with the Miracle Pure Skin-Improving foundation having 89% skincare ingredients such as hyaluronic acid and Vitamin C. She deserves to shine and the Miracle Pure Infused Cream Blush, available in 4 radiant shades, will give her an instant flush of colour and buildable glow. Plus the blushes are infused with squalane for a boost of hydration that will last all day long.
