Self-pampering products are among the most popular gifts for moms for Mother’s Day. After all, moms work hard and deserve the opportunity to slow down and take care of themselves with lavish products. Nonetheless, some moms are harder to shop for than others — especially those who prioritize clean beauty products that are free of toxins and gentle on the environment. And, even for moms who haven’t entered the world of clean beauty yet, it’s nice to put in the extra thought and give her a gift that supports her long-term health and is also kind to the planet. Knowing what to look for when it comes to clean beauty products can be tricky, however. After all, green washing is common in the beauty industry and products that claim to be “all-natural” aren’t always so clean. The following list includes clean beauty products that live up to their name and make great gifts for Mother’s Day.
KLUR Elements Of Comfort Botanical Body Oil, $70
A quality body oil makes a luxurious gift for Mother’s Day and KLUR’s Elements of Comfort Efflorescent Luster Botanical Oil doesn’t disappoint. Formulated with a subtly fragrant blend of Neroli Orange Blossom, Bulgarian Rose, and French Lavender, the oil leaves skin lustrous and sweetly fragranced without being overpowering. Intended to replenish and nourish skin while also promoting relaxation, mom will feel pampered and beautiful with each use. In addition to using clean ingredients, KLUR is committed to using ethical and sustainable practices in the production of its products.
Common Heir 10% Vitamin C Serum, $88

In fact, the headband is so cute she might just wear it for everything around the house (and thank you, too!). Bloomeffects uses tulips for their healing properties and is committed to circular farming and sustainability in the production of its products.
Prima Beyond Body Oil — 600MG CBD, $56
CBD oil is beneficial for so many reasons — from its anti-aging properties to its potential for pain relief, CBD oil is something every mom should have in her beauty lineup. And, Prima Beyond Body Oil is doubly impressive because not only does it include CBD, it also features magnesium and helichrysum for their soothing and regenerative properties.
Alpyn Beauty Triple Vitamin-C Brightening Bounce Cream, $49
Another Vitamin C product worth considering is Alpyn Beauty’s Triple Vitamin-C Brightening Bounce Cream which is wildcrafted from plants harvested in Jackson Hole, Wyoming.
