For the Mom Who Wants to Unplug

If scrolling through Instagram is your mom’s favorite way to unwind, try giving her a gift that lets her completely unplug – a jigsaw puzzle. But we’re not talking about pictures of cats and wooded cottages, a jigsaw puzzle from Apostrophe Puzzles is a work of art. This Black-owned, woman-led brand features puzzles designed by artists of color.

Make Wash Day the Best Day

You may not be able to pay for Mom to have her hair done daily, but the Pre-Wash Kit from Pattern Beauty is the next best thing. This product bundle from Tracee Ellis Ross’ award-winning hair care line is the pre-shampoo love her hair needs. It comes with Detangling Nectar, Hydration Shampoo, a wide tooth comb, shower brush and the brand’s viral Deep Scalp Detox.

For the Mom Who Needs to Retire Her Tired Sweats

Who says you have to look unkempt to be comfortable? The Washable Silk High Rise Pant Set from Lunya is a super soft and sexy set that your mother will want to wear again and again. We love the flat front waist pants with side slits for ventilation.

For the Mom Who Loves to Smell Good

Mother’s Day is the perfect time to surprise mom with a new fragrance, like Hard to Get Eau de Parfum from Black-owned brand FORVR Mood. You can grab a bottle at Sephora – a great option for last-minute gifts, offering FREE Same-Day Delivery service from May 2 - May 12 with the code YAYSAMEDAY.

For the Mom Who Can’t Live Without Her Coffee

Whether she prefers her coffee iced or hot, mom will love the Ninja CM401 Specialty 10-cup coffee maker. She can make up to 10 cups of coffee in her choice of four brew styles (including iced). And it has a built-in milk frother to turn her ordinary cup of joe into something special.

For the Mom Who Always Makes Time For Tea

Help mom relax with a Deluxe Gift Box from Brooklyn Tea. Choose between three flavor combinations, and the box includes two 5-ounce tins of tea and a 12-ounce mug with a stainless steel infuser basket.

For the Wine-Loving Mom

If wine is mom’s drink of choice, why not opt for a subscription to the Love Cork Screw Wine Club? Choose between the monthly and quarterly options to have a bottle of vino delivered right to door from a Black woman owned and operated wine brand.

For the Active Mom

Freshen up her workout wear with a gift card from lemlem, supermodel Liya Kebede’s resort wear brand made ethically in Africa. We can’t get enough of the PUMA X lemlem collab, including this track jacket, coverup and low impact bra.

Keep your mom’s favorite family recipes for generations with this personalized cutting board from Etsy. Just choose the wood type and the recipe, and you’ll get a gift she’s sure to love.

For the Mom Who Needs to Get Away

Flowers and perfume are nice and all. But let’s face it, at the end of the day Mom really just wants to get away from momming for a while. So help her get away from it all with an Airbnb gift card she can use at the secret mom retreat of her choice. And don’t bother her while she’s there!

For the Mom Who Loves to Binge Watch Everything

You’re grown, which means it’s time to stop sharing log ins and get mom her own subscription to HBO Max. Choose your plan and let her binge watch her favorite movies and series over and over again. If you really love her, you’ll spring for the package without the ads!
