    83 Of The Best Mother's Day Gifts To Give In 2023

    More than anything, moms want a break, but a candle and some new luxurious pillowcases might just do the trick until then.

    Hi shoppers! At this point, it's likely that some gifts may not arrive in time for 5/14: it all depends on the retailer, the item, where you live, and how much $$$ you're willing to spend on expedited shipping.

    So please enjoy our gift ideas, but understand that, for many of these items, you'll have to simply let your loved one know that their gift may be arriving *later*.

    1. Essence Lash Princess Mascara might just leave people wondering if your mom recently got eyelash extensions (which it feels like everyone and anyone has been raving about). Joke's on them!

    BuzzFeed writer Emma Lord is a BIG fan of this mascara. She said:

    "Hello, that is my face above, because I bought into the hype of the positive reviews and now I will never look back!! Putting it on is like giving my eyelashes butterfly wings. It doesn't get clumpy, it stays put ALL the live long day (I spent all of this ridiculously hot pandemic summer wearing it, so I can speak to that), and you can apply it on very lightly if you don't want it to look so dramatic, or continue applying for longer lashes each time."

    Promising review: "I have to be honest, for a 'cheap' three-pack mascara, I did NOT have high expectations. These, however, exceeded my expectations and went MUCH MUCH farther. I had been buying a certain $25/tube brand (rhymes with truepique) and I like these just as much!! I’m saving a TON of money and like my lashes just as much." —Liz

    Promising reviews: "I have 4c hair and was looking for a protein treatment for my thin and fragile hair. I had recently used a product in my hair that had so much alcohol in it that wreaked havoc on my hair, leaving it pretty damaged. I was very skeptical about this product because I have never seen anyone with my hair type use it. Boy was I wrong to doubt this product, it left my hair looking and feeling beautiful. I highly recommend it to anyone with natural or curly hair." —Therese-Claire

    3. SKIN1004 Zombie Pack Face Masks that'll make them temporarily look like a zombie (though not QUITE as terrifying as the ones chasing down Pedro Pascal in The Last of Us). This entertaining mask will tighten pores and minimizing the appearance of wrinkles while providing them with the opportunity to take some *very* silly selfies.

    Promising review: "Smells great! This face mask does exactly what it says. My skin is nice and lifted, hydrated, noticeable reduction in fine lines, improved texture, reduced my pore size, and eliminated some newly developed rough patches forming around the hairline. Couldn't be more satisfied with this product! I have pretty good skin for 37, but this mask has really helped take my skin to the next level." —Samantha

    5. Exfoliating skincare mitts designed to lift away dead skin (and remove a spray tan that's seen better days) — an excellent way for mom to kickstart their spa-like experience at home.

    Promising review: "If you're trying to find something for body exfoliation...this is it. Just this glove, water, and some time. I soaked in the bathtub for about 10 minutes, then got to exfoliating." —Kari Shawhan

    Shipping info: Available on Amazon Prime with two-day shipping, non-Prime shipping options will still arrive by Mother's Day (see Amazon's full shipping information here).

    Get it from Amazon for $6.99.

    6. A Tea of the Month Club subscription for the mom who is always suggesting you "sort things out over a cup of tea." Broke up with your boyfriend? "Have some tea." Came home past your curfew? "Let's chat about it while making some tea."

    7. An Evil Eye pendant they can layer with their other treasured jewels — this sapphire charm is said to protect the wearer from misfortunes and bad luck (which sounds like a great gift in itself, IMO!).

    8. A hilarious customized caricature photo stand starring mom's favorite person — you! Or perhaps it's Stanley Tucci. Either way, it'll look excellent on her mantel.

    9. A digital picture frame you can preload with beloved family snapshots — it's also complete with Alexa and a ChatGPT-powered voice assistant that'll allow them to play music, ask about the weather, catch up on news, and play music without having to lift a finger (it's what mom deserves!).

    12. A Jeopardy trivia book to properly commemorate one of the greatest men to ever grace our televisions. You two can test each other and see who would actually become a Jeopardy champion.

    13. A LEGO wildflower bouquet that'll double as both a relaxing activity and decor — mom can place them in a vase and enjoy them for far longer than those supermarket flowers you were planning to gift her.

    14. A curated gift box for your mom who spends countless hours with you on the couch watching The Real Housewives — it comes with a wine sheet mask, a sticker of Andy Cohen's face (duh), a wine tumbler, a "Bravoholic" sticker, and a card. Mom will be so proud you took the time and *made it nice* this Mother's Day.

    Promising review: "Um...WOW! I have used so many products to help with my dry, red, and inflamed skin. During the winter it is so hard to keep my skin moisturized through out the day. Within two days I saw such a huge difference. So calming and gives you a nice, moisturized glow. I feel so much better knowing my skin is healing. I will use this in my routine for the rest of my life!" —Christina A.

    21. A family-sized Perfect Pot they can use on both the stovetop and in the oven — it'll replace mom's stock pot, Dutch oven, saucepot, roasting rack, steamer, colander, braiser, and spoon rest! Talk about a fabulous gift, jeez.

    22. A subscription to Atlas Coffee Club to bring aromatic, fresh beans from all over the world right to their coffee pot. Mmm, if you take a deep breath you can likely already smell those delectable beans.

    24. A crossbody bag for the fashionista mom who would love nothing more than another handbag to add to their ever-growing collection.

    25. A matching cover-up and high-waisted short set they can wear while lounging by the pool (aka chasing after their toddler who has relentlessly been trying to shove rocks in their mouth).

    a model in a light wash long sleeve button down cover up and matching shorts

    26. And a splurge-worthy Sunflow beach bundle (she likely will recognize them from their success on Shark Tank) to ensure she experiences the utmost comfort (and protection from the sun) while relaxing with her feet in the sand.

    27. The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom for Nintendo Switch, because it *conveniently* comes out right before Mother's Day and is an absolute must-have for anyone who likes to unwind after the kids go to sleep with an open-world adventure.

    screenshot from tears of the kingdom depicting combat
    Amazon

    My colleague Jenae says it best: "Tears of the Kingdom, for those unaware, is the direct sequel to 2017's mega hit Breath of the Wild, and it's easily the most anticipated Nintendo Switch game this year, maybe even the past *several* years. Though story details are somewhat slim, we know that Link will take to the skies and explore the mysterious islands floating *above* Hyrule as well as return to the sprawling landscapes below, with a host of new abilities to wield for puzzle-solving, exploration, and combat. I got the chance to play over an hour of Tears of the Kingdom at a recent Nintendo event, and it's gotten me seriously pumped for this latest Zelda adventure. Graphics- and gameplay-wise, it very much feels like Breath of the Wild, but with more freedom than ever before to manipulate the environment and get creative with how you approach, well, pretty much anything. I know I'll be diving in on release day (May 12!) and will probably lose over 100 hours of my life to TOTK like I did with BOTW, and if you love Zelda, open-world games, and (TBH) cozy vibes, it might just be the *best* way to treat yourself this Mother's Day. "

    Preorder it from Amazon for $69.99 (releases May 12; available physically or as a digital code, which can be redeemed on the Nintendo eShop). It's playable on any Nintendo Switch console, including Switch OLED and Switch Lite.

    Psst — if you've been itching to get a new console lately or upgrade your current Switch model, Nintendo just released a *gorgeous* special edition of the OLED model for Tears of the Kingdom, available for $359.99!

    28. luggage drink caddy that'll attach to their wheeled luggage — it'll become their saving grace when traveling, since moms area always the ones in charge of holding onto everyone's passport and boarding passes along with EVERYTHING else. They can use it to hold their Starbies, phone, ID, etc., and prevent them from fumbling around for all those items while heading to the gate at the airport, kids in tow.

    Promising review: "This cup holder is perfect! It helps me a lot! Last time I took a plane with a suitcase and a cup of coffee, when it’s my turn to check my passport and ticket, the coffee cup fell to the ground and coffee sprinkled. It was a nightmare! This time I bought this cup holder, it did do me a favor! I don't have to worry about where my cup and phone are! I can free my hands to do other things. I love it so much! Hope you love it too." —Philip

    Abby Kass / BuzzFeed, Amazon

    I have a Kindle and surprisingly have become a big fan of it — especially when traveling. While I absolutely prefer a hardcover book, it's nearly impossible to put more than two (which is a stretch in itself) in my suitcase along with my clothes, shoes, toiletries, etc. I read most of my books these days through the Libby app (all you need is a library card for access) which can be used via your phone or Kindle. No need to spend tons of money on novels when I simply am not someone who rereads them! I like that I can use this one near water without fear of it getting destroyed (yikes).

    Shipping info: Available on Amazon Prime with two-day shipping, non-Prime shipping options will still arrive by Mother's Day (see Amazon's full shipping information here).

    Get it from Amazon for $129.99+ (available in 8GB and 32GB and in four colors).

    35. Or a subscription to Book of the Month because there are few things as soothing to a true bibliophile as cracking open a hardcover book and settling in to read.

    36. Adidas Ultraboost sneakers for the mom who starts their day bright and early with a run before the kids have even rolled out of bed — she most definitely deserves a fresh new pair to accompany her on her workout.

    37. An acrylic book-shaped vase they'll *literally* love so much they'll treat themselves to flowers every single weekend just to ensure it's always filled with fresh ones.

    Promising review: "Wow! I purchased this on a whim after seeing one of my favorite YouTubers try it out. I didn't expect a lot from it. I tried it out and was shocked!!! The mask was simple (and fun) to use. I wasn't sure I felt a lot happening while it was on, but it was pretty cool how the bubbles started to grow off of my face. Upon inspection after using this mask I was completely amazed. My face felt cleaner than it has in a very long time AND my pores looked amazing! I don't remember a time when I felt like my pores looked great before using this mask. I would highly recommend this mask to anyone. It's also so much cheaper than the GlamGlow ones I have been using (and didn't see near these results from)." —Phil Textor

    I have and love this Rifle Paper Co. desktop planner. It's *so* pretty, obviously, but it also has double-sided sheets of paper that include a daily breakdown of the week on one side and a notes/to-do checklist on the other side. It's been super helpful for keeping both my work day and my day-to-day more organized. It has, honestly, given me a lot of peace of mind as someone who both works from home and has a child galavanting around the house. There's a lot to be done, and this has helped me keep it in check!

    Promising review: "Okay these are by far the best earbuds I’ve ever used. No exaggeration. My husband had these in his Amazon cart a couple of months ago but never checked out. Well it’s about to be Christmas soon, so I chose to get these on the sly for him. When they came in I wanted to make sure everything was working correctly before wrapping them up for Christmas. The sound quality is absolutely perfect, the noice cancellation is AMAZING! They were on low and the sound was crystal clear. I asked my 6-year-old son to talk so I could see how well they canceled out noise and I couldn’t hear him, so I told him to shout and I still couldn’t hear him at all. My husband will absolutely love these!! Also, now I need to get myself a pair as well! Definitely happy with my purchase!" —Ashley Haley

    65. A zip-top wristlet designed to look like an invitation to King Charles' upcoming coronation — a must-have if your mom has been tracking everything about The Royal Family since before you were even born.

    66. Glimmer Glow Stick lipstick will ensure your mom's pout can showcase the *perfect* shade of pink at all times thanks to its fancy pH technology. It'll magically leave a rosy, subtle glittery shade on their lips.

    Promising review: "This is such a pretty pH color lipstick, viral for a reason — it's very pretty to look at, it's not sticky at all, and the more you layer it, the darker the pink shows up. The only thing I don't like is the scent in it, I can almost taste it a bit. It's nice to have in my purse if I need a quick color while I'm out in case of sudden dinner plans or a meeting, because you can control the color saturation to how light or bold it is." —Kristina Bumbelow

    67. shampoo scalp massager — even if they only have the time for a quick rinse they'll still be able to indulge in a relaxing scalp massage.

    Emma Lord/BuzzFeed

    BuzzFeed writer Emma Lord is a big fan of this product:

    "I have one of these and WOWZA, it really helps you get extra mileage out of your shampoo. I have a whole lot of hair on my head so sometimes it's a struggle to feel like I've soaped up my whole scalp thorough, but this is a very effective way to spread out the suds and really get them to the roots. I was worried it might tangle in my hair, but it was totally fine on that front, too. I've noticed that my hair has been a little less greasy at the roots since I started using it. And I'm echoing a ton of reviewers here when I say it just feels reeeeeally, really nice."

    Promising review: "I can't say enough about this product. I have long hair and I do not wash my hair more than every four to five days. My hair is dry and it doesn't get dirty until nearly a week goes by. However, my scalp is another story. If I have been sweating due to weather or working out, my scalp is going to be accruing dirt. This has been a godsend. This brush does an amazing job of getting my scalp squeaky clean and I don't have to be concerned about that buildup not coming off. I always loved going to the salon for a good scrub of my scalp but it can be expensive to do all the time. This makes it so much easier and I can do it every time I wash my hair. I was having some hair loss and couldn't figure out what was going on other than just stress. Since I started using this, the hair loss has stopped and I actually think my hair is growing better. I wrote an earlier review but I have been using this now for awhile and wanted to update what I said then so this is it. I am buying several more of these for stocking stuffers at Christmas. I know once they use this, they will be thanking me until next Christmas! LOL! ;-)" —KG8

    BuzzFeed writer Emma Lord adores her lighter:

    "This also comes in other pretty colors, but I am especially partial to this one because I bought it for my parents (their kitchen is entirely pink and one of my favorite places on Earth), and this was SO EASY to use — not to mention super safe! I'm a big weenie about fire (LOL, self-preservation) so I've always stuck to extended-arm gas lighters, but this is much better for the environment (plus cuter), so I feel a lot better about using it. You can read my full review of the Leejie electric lighter for more deets!"

    Promising review: "Works like a charm. I saw this on a TikTok. Knew immediately that I needed it. I love candles and this is so much better than a match or lighter. It’s kept a charge for months. I use it several times a month." —dwhite3012

    71. Beckham Hotel Collection Bed Pillows because, if we’re being honest, the ones they've been sleeping on are starting to resemble Flat Stanley. It’s time for you to help upgrade your mom's sleeping situation. It's what she deserves!!!

    Promising review: "I was just looking at these pillows again in case I had to purchase new ones. I originally purchased them two years ago. They are the most wonderful and comfy pillows I've ever had. When I read the reviews saying they washed up badly, I was ready to buy new ones. Lo and behold, I washed them and dried them in the dryer, and they turned out great. I just have the older type stackable washer and dryer set, not large, just regular sized. I put both pillows in the washer on gentle, then put both pillows in the dryer. I ran the dryer on medium heat and ran the cycle several times, just to make sure. I'm happy they turned out so well 'cause I love these pillows!" —T. Rune

    73. And an Xbox Series S console — the woman who gave birth to your child deserves an outlet to have some serious fun once the baby finally goes to sleep (hopefully for the entire night, fingers crossed).

    74. Or a Surface Laptop 5 — because you and I both know their current computer has been on the fritz for over a year now and they deserve an upgrade. Mom can use this to play games, plan the next family vacay, and online shop (DUH!).

    75. milk frother to pack a powerful, spinning punch despite looking rather delicate. It'll help transform their latte into one just like their favorite barista whips up for them at their go-to coffee shop. Delish.

    Promising review: "So I’ll admit I got this on a whim after a TikTok video, however I’m in love with this thing! It’s so much fun to use and you make your at home drinks feel so much more special. It’s easy to use and froths pretty quickly if you’re on the fence I’d say what are you waiting for buy it already!" —Denise

    I own these bookends — they were a must-have addition to my color-coordinated bookcase. They do a great job doing what they're supposed to do (holding up my books) but also add the perfect little touch of Disney to my decor. Highly recommend!

    78. Saucemoto dip clip, because eating fries in the car just tastes better and no one should have to sacrifice their favorite dipping sauce to do so! I can't think of a better lil' gift to give your mom bestie who can often be found eating Chick-fil-A in between driving their kids to and from soccer practice.

    Promising review: "How did I go so long without one of these??? The Saucemoto was my first 'TikTok Made Me Buy It' purchase and I have no regrets. It clips easily to my car's vent and the sauce cups clip in easily so I can dip and drive. No more trying not to dump the sauce by accident while steering with the same hand that's holding the dip cup. It even comes with a dip cup for those places that do the pouches for their sauces rather than the cups. (I'm looking at you, Arby's.) Ya know, you end up squeezing the sauce onto the wrapper that's balanced on your lap and you end up getting some sauce on your steering wheel. OR you try the whole 'wrapper and sauce on the passenger seat and try to dip while watching the road,' which usually doesn't turn out so great." —Pleasure Pamela

    79. mug warmer to keep on their coffee table so they can continue to sip on hot coffee even if they completely forgot about it while getting the kids ready for school.

    Jenae Sitzes / BuzzFeed

    BuzzFeed editor Jenae Sitzes can confirm this gadget is worth the money:

    "After seeing this coffee warmer all over BuzzFeed Shopping and even gifting my dad one for Christmas, I finally decided to buy one for myself. Based on all the reviews, I was pretty confident I'd soon be kicking myself for not getting it sooner, and that proved to be true: This thing not only looks good, but works great for keeping my coffee warm all day long (because yes, I'm one of those people that'll sip on coffee until 5 p.m., all right!!). I was kind of worried it'd be too small for some of my larger mugs, but the center plate is bigger than expected and accommodated every mug in my (very eclectic) collection perfectly. I can confirm that flat-bottomed mugs are the best option for using with this warmer as they do stay hotter, but it still keeps my concaved-bottom mugs warm enough for my taste. Also, I looove how sleek the white version looks on my white desk, and the auto-shutoff function is a nice safety feature as an absent-minded person."

    Promising review: "I researched so many coffee warmers and am so glad I decided on this one. It definitely keeps my coffee hot, no matter how long it takes me to drink it. I also like that it has three settings. As you drink down your coffee, you can lower the heat because it keeps the coffee very hot. I like it so much I ordered a second one for another part of the house." —hottytoddy

    81. An iced coffee holder, because it's totally fine if mom falls into the category of people-who-drink-iced-drinks-all-year but their precious little hands shouldn't have to suffer the consequences!

    82. OUAI Scalp & Body Scrub made with sugar and coconut oil to help bring skin and scalp back to life after a harsh winter — not to mention it smells absolutely incredible.

    I'm a biggggg fan of the OUAI brand so it was no surprise to me when I fell in love with this scrub. A little goes a long way, which is fantastic because this comes with a decent amount of product. Mine has literally lasted me longer than a year at this point. Anyways, I've noticed such a difference in my skin after slathering this on in the shower. I use it to exfoliate my legs after shaving and without fail it leaves them feeling silkier and smoother than ever.

    Promising review: "I was looking to replace my expensive scalp scrub with a comparable product at a better value and this solved the problem in terms of quality and value. Smells divine and leaves my hair soft and silky at the same time." —Mig7
