When Mother's Day comes around, one of the most important things is to remember to give Mom a break. She works so hard every day to take care of the family, and she deserves a rest day!
This year, consider pampering Mom with a spa day!
Breakfast in Bed
Start any great spa day with a breakfast Mom doesn't have to even get out of bed to enjoy! The most important thing is to pick items your mom will love and cook with the heart.
We have some great ideas for Mother's Day breakfast items. Enjoy Red Velvet Cinnamon Rolls, Bacon Egg and Cheese Cups, Chocolate-Covered Strawberry Mini Icebox Cakes. Visit our recipe blog for more ideas!
Add a flower and candle to the mix, and you have the perfect breakfast in bed.
Relaxing Bubble Bath
Relaxing in a warm bubble bath can relax just about anybody! Draw a bath and set up a steaming sauna for your momma. Add soothing essential oils and epsom salt to truly bring the relaxation.
We recommend adding TopCare Fresh Moisture or Deep Moisturizing Nourishing Body Wash and Dr Teal's Pure Epsom Salt Soaking Solution with Lavender for extra self care.
Make the comfy level skyrocket by having a freshly washed and warm bathrobe ready for her when she finishes!
Exfoliate & Moisturize
The next step to a great spa day is to exfoliate! Exfoliation helps remove dead skin cells and allow new cells to surface.
After a bath, use something like CleanLogic Exfoliating Body Gloves, Dual-Texture Body Exfoliator, Olay Micro-Exfoliating Wet Cleansing Cloths or CleanLogic Charcoal Infused Foam Sea Sponge to treat your skin.
After exfoliation, it's time to moisturize! Start with some TopCare Daily Moisturizing Lotion. Then use some TopCare Refreshing Facial Cleanser to restore that shine.
Take care of your lips with something like Burt's Bees Lip Oil and your face with Alaffia Everyday Coconut Purely Coconut Face Cream.
She Picks the Movie
No fighting for the remote today. Let Mom pick whatever movie she feels like watching, even if it is the sappiest Hallmark movie ever. Let her pick and feel great about her choice.
Provide plenty of snacks during movie time, as well!
Massage & Manicure
Once Mom has enjoyed her breakfast and had time to enjoy her bath, skin care routine and movie, sit her down on a comfy chair or the couch for a comforting massage. Arrange lots of pillows and blankets so she is comfy and get to work!
To give the best massage, use the hard parts of your palms to make circles over the shoulder blades and base of the neck. Search for knots and massage around them to relieve tension. Massage around bones like the spine, and work slowly.
After the massage (or during if there are multiple helpers!), grab your mom's favorite nail color and paint away. Pro tip: add a layer of clear coat nail polish to make the color shine.
YOU Make Dinner!
Set aside time to create the ultimate dinner for Mom. It's likely she has made plenty of dinners for you in the past, so set the table and return the favor.
Check out our blog on creating a delicious Peppered T-Bone Steak Dinner for ideas!
Mockaritas for Mom
Top off the spa day with a glass of something sweet for Mom! Try these Frozen Raspberry Mockaritas or this Cantaloupe Frose for a great finisher to a great day.
Overall, the most important thing is to think about the things your mom loves and be intentional about your goal to show her love. She will appreciate any time you spend on her. Good luck!
