We’ve rounded up 10 of our faves that are so on-trend, you’ll feel like Beyonce at The Met.
Available online and in-store, there’s goodness to be had.
And babe, you deserve all of them.
01. The Japanese skincare set that everyone’s talking about
Tatcha The Starter Ritual, $148
If you’re not already in your Tatcha era, now is the time. This set brings together some of the brand’s most loved heroes, including the Dewy Skin Cream and the Dewy Serum, all designed to leave skin looking like you’ve had 12 hours sleep. It’s the kind of gift that feels properly luxurious, but is also useful, and that combo is so hard to get right. You will love every last drop.
02. The fragrance that lives rent free on TikTok
PHLUR Vanilla Skin Hair and Body Mist, from $56
Two years of constant viral moments and this one still hasn’t left the chat. PHLUR’s Vanilla Skin mist is a warm, skin-scent that smells like the most elevated version of you. Not sweet, not heavy, not trying too hard. It’s the scent that makes people stop you in the lift and ask what you’re wearing. At $43, it’s one of the best-value gifts on this list and honestly one of the most impressive. You will want more.
03. The limited edition fragrance you need to run for
Jo Malone London Raspberry Ripple Cologne (Limited Edition), from $126
Jo Malone drops a limited edition and the internet collectively loses its mind, every single time. And fair enough, because this one is stunning. The Raspberry Ripple Cologne is fruity and fresh without being sharp, and it layers beautifully with existing Jo Malone scents. The packaging alone is gift-worthy. But act fast, because limited edition means it.
04. The makeup palette that does it all
Charlotte Tilbury Luxury Palette, $92
Charlotte Tilbury has been the makeup girl’s holy grail for years and the Luxury Palette is one of the most iconic products in her lineup. Four perfectly curated eyeshadow shades that suit literally every skin tone, and they blend like an absolute dream. It’s for the modern mother who loves her makeup but doesn’t always have time to fuss, and it works every time. Easy, effortless and beautiful.
05. The body care set that makes every shower feel like a ritual
Necessaire The Body Essentials Santal, $69
Necessaire is having a serious moment and the Santal scent is the one everyone’s reaching for. This set pairs the brand’s bestselling body wash and body lotion in a warm, woody sandalwood fragrance that feels expensive without screaming it. It’s the kind of bodycare that turns a two-minute morning shower into something that actually feels good. Worth every cent.
06. The hair tool like no other
Dyson Supersonic Travel Hair Dryer Ceramic Pink/Rose Gold, $449
If you don’t have a Dyson Supersonic yet, this is your moment. The Travel edition is the same iconic dryer in a compact, more portable form, and the ceramic pink and rose gold colourway is beyond pretty. It even comes with a storage box you won’t want to put away. Quiet, fast and gentle, you’ll notice the difference in your hair within the first week. We’re serious.
07. The beauty tech that’s basically a mini facial every day
Dr. Dennis Gross DRx SpectraLite FaceWare Pro, $782
Ok yes, this is the splurge of the list. But if you want to go all out, this LED face mask is the real deal. Clinically proven to reduce wrinkles, boost collagen, and clear skin in just nine minutes a day, it’s the kind of at-home treatment that actually delivers results. Consistently one of the most reviewed beauty tech products in the country, if you’ve been curious about LED therapy, this is the one.
08. The hairbrush with a following
La Bonne Brosse N.01 The Universal Petite Brush, $190
This sounds extra, but stay with us. La Bonne Brosse is the French hairbrush brand that went properly viral when every it-girl was spotted using one. The N.01 Petite is a beautiful, well-made brush that’s great for your hair and comes in a range of colours that look stunning on a dressing table. It sits right at the sweet spot between useful and aspirational, which is honestly the gift brief everyone should be working from.
09. The comfies the cool girls are wearing
UGG Classic Ultra Mini, from $225
UGG had the most iconic comeback, and the Classic Ultra Mini is absolutely the silhouette of the moment. Comfortable enough to wear every single day, and cute enough to pull off with jeans, dresses, matching sets, you name it. It’s the gift that keeps on giving. Got a pair already? Get a new colour. They’re cosy season’s number one.
10. The lifestyle upgrade that’s non-negotiable
Nespresso Vertuo Up Coffee Machine, $349
Mothers deserve a proper coffee. Fact. The Nespresso Vertuo Up makes barista-quality coffee at home in about 30 seconds, comes in compact sizes that suit any kitchen bench, and it’s consistently one of the most-gifted items in Australia every Mother’s Day for a reason. Don’t think about it. Do it.
