The must-have beauty box
Whether she's a beauty connoisseur or in need of a bathroom cabinet upgrade, this line-up of iconic beauty products is guaranteed to please. The box includes full-size treats such as Clinique's All About Eyes de-puffing roller, Formula's five star-rated replenishing overnight oil, and Floral Street's Sunflower Pop fragrance in a handbag-friendly 10ml size (ideal for on-the-go spritzing). Her weekend-away bag will benefit from L'Occitane's Almond Shower Oil and ColorWow's XL Bombshell hair mousse, both in mini sizes. And the best bit? It costs just £30, but is worth over £130.

Say it with flowers
With sophisticated peach, pink and cream tones, our roses, lisianthus and antirrhinum bright bouquet is sure to make your mum feel spoiled on Mother's Day. Boasting 25 stems including cerise alstroemeria, blue lisianthus, burgundy antirrhinum, laurel, plus peach, orange and cerise roses, it's a showstopping bouquet on its own, however the addition of a bottle of fizz or a candle is bound to wow. Flowers also make great Mother's Day gifts for grandmas and nans – let her know you care with a seasonal spring bouquet featuring tulips, roses and hyacinths to add a splash of colour to her home.

Afternoon tea
Why not treat your mum to afternoon tea? Our delightful afternoon tea letterbox gift contains all you need to spoil Mum or Grandma from afar. Assemble a treat to remember with Victoria sandwich cakes, carrot cakes, millionaire shortbread bars and delicious biscuits. Complemented by Luxury Gold tea, the afternoon tea gift box contains all she'll need to put her feet up. With over 4000 five-star reviews, it's a fail-safe gift idea for Mother's Day. The best bit? You don't need to worry that she needs to be at home to receive it as the box can be posted through her letterbox.

Heaven scent
You'll find something for every mum in our selection of fragrances by renowned perfumers, from Estée Lauder and Fragonard to Floral Street, plus our purse-friendly in-house brands.

It's in the bag
Fashion accessories make the ideal Mother's Day gift for style-conscious mums. Boost her everyday outfits with an eye-catching oversized broderie anglaise scrunchie, pair of statement earrings or one of Joules' silk scarves. A new bag to stash all her essentials is another cool Mother's Day gift idea. Choose from an on-trend woven leather bag, a spring-ready olive green cross-body, a faux leather cream handbag and lots more from our new-season collection. Add a covetable bag charm for added trend points.

Her first Mother's Day
Wondering what to buy a new mum on her first Mother's Day? Mark this special occasion with pampering gifts for mum combined with something super-sweet for baby. She'll be tickled pink with this adorable baby outfit from JoJo Maman Bébé which features a pretty cotton pointelle top and mouse-detailed dungarees. Add some bath or bedtime treats from Bloom & Blossom to create a bespoke gift that will encourage her to rest and recharge.

Let her pick
Give her the gift of choice with a Mother's Day gift card, which she can use in store or online. Think of it as a shopping spree for her, on you. Whether she's saving up to splurge on an investment clothing piece or stocking up on premium skincare essentials, she's bound to find something from M&S Collection or our curated edit of partner brands. Or, if she's more of a foodie, she can stock up her pantry with delights from the foodhalls. Choose from an e-gift voucher to be delivered to Mum's inbox or a classic gift voucher with card and envelope to post. Perfect!
