Here are five good gift ideas to give Mum this festive season – guaranteed to earn you a permanent spot on Santa’s “nice list” as well as the designation of Mum’s Favourite Child for many months to come.
What Christmas gift does Mum really want this year? Another dressing gown? Bath salts? Or (the horror!) a new vacuum cleaner? (Look, if one of those fancy robot vacuums shows up under my Christmas tree, I probably wouldn’t complain…) What Mum really wants for Christmas is some well-deserved time off and pampering – and we have just the gift ideas to help you fulfil her holiday wishes.
Mums work hard all year round, and sore shoulders, an aching back, and a crick in the neck unfortunately come with the job sometimes. What your mum wants is a massage to soothe tired muscles, relax that sore back and neck, and ease the tension in her shoulders.
If she’s in need of relaxation and rest, a 90-minute Swedish Relaxation Massage might be just the thing to help her de-stress and unwind. Or give her deep healing with a 75-minute Hot Stone Massage using heated smooth river stones that penetrate deeply into sore spots for the ultimate zen time out.
If Mum is still using that sample pottle of who-knows-what she got in a goodie bag at the movies, it’s time she experiences what professional skincare products can do for her complexion and for sense of self. Germaine de Capuccini skincare products are tailored to specific skincare needs and personalised for what will help your skin, no matter what stage of life you’re at. Set Mum up with a free skin consultation with one of our expert beauty therapists and we can recommend what products will best suit her skin.
She’s on her feet and using her hands all day long – why not give them a rest and a pamper at the same time? A Luxury Manicure and Luxury Pedicure include shaping, a nail and cuticle treatment, exfoliation, massage, moisturising, and polish. You can add on gel polish, which lasts for several weeks and will still look beautiful even if she’s working in the garden or spending time at the local beach. Her hands and feet deserve the celebrity treatment!
Anti-aging skincare is a topic that is difficult for women to talk about, especially since we’re only as old as we feel! If Mum’s been expressing some annoyance with wrinkles and fine lines, why not give her the gift of advanced anti-aging skin treatment that shows immediate and visible results?
Mesoboost is the latest needle-free, non-invasive Mesotherapy treatment from Europe, and it offers the results of skin needling without pain or down time. And it really works – cell absorption is improved by up to 85%, to reveal visible skin rejuvenation. You can book Mum in for a single treatment to see what she thinks, or a series of treatments (we recommend a set of three or five treatments seven to 10 days apart).
While we think your mum would love any of these thoughtful gifts, sometimes the best gift you can give is the gift of choice, and let Mum decide what she might like best. We have gift vouchers for any treatment value, or you can choose a dollar amount and let Mum take over from there. Gift vouchers are good for a year so Mum has time to consider what she would most enjoy using it for. And nothing says “thoughtful” like acknowledging that Mum deserves some pampering on her own terms and in her own time! We can personalise a gift voucher for her, either in a beautiful card with a ribbon, or via email you can send to her (or print out and sneak into her stocking).
