Mom, Mumma, Mummy, Mama—whatever you call her, there is one thing for sure—she is irreplaceable. Although we can never thank them enough for all they do, we can always show that we appreciate her. And what better than Mother's Day to do this?
Our mothers take on so many roles for us. They are our first teachers, best friends, confidants, and the biggest cheerleaders! But what do you gift someone so thoughtful and pampering? Perhaps something that pampers her.
Ah, how about some skincare as a Mother's day gift? After all, her skin and body have gone through so much over the years. So why not gift her the ultimate spa experience at home? A bundle of gentle, nourishing products that replenish and rejuvenate her skin. That, too, is straight from the forests of Japan. Confused? Don’t be!
Here are your 2024 Mother’s Day gifts for Mom, all laid out for you! All you need to do is click the “Add to Cart” button. We’ve made it that easy for you!
Cleansing Rituals
Soft, warm, and gentle—such is the feel of a mother’s touch. And to keep it the same, we must approach it with the same gentleness.
Of course, it is a no-brainer that her skincare needs to start with a cleanser. But the main question is, “How should her cleanser be?” Well, her cleanser needs to be gentle yet purifying. The Good thing is we have a range of products that meet this criteria. Here’s a breakdown of each of these and why they are some of the best gifts for your mother.
Mild Cleanser
Your mother made sure that all your skincare products were gentle growing up, it’s time you do the same. Our Mild Cleanser is specially formulated for sensitive skin. Its main ingredients, Japanese Fermented Rice Extract with Alpine Rose Stem Cells, are carefully selected keeping two things in mind:
- Skin’s natural pH levels
- Daily cleansing habits
The Japanese Fermented Rice Extract will help her fight signs of early aging and plump her skin. On the other hand, the Alpine Rose Stem Cells will strengthen her skin’s protective barrier.
Now, you may wonder, “Why is it important to strengthen the skin’s protective barrier?” The answer is simple—as your mother gracefully ages, her skin will become thinner and more delicate. As a result, it will need extra effort to keep its barrier strong.
Deep Cleanser
Yet, if you think your mom requires a more invigorating experience, opt for the Deep Cleanser. Crafted with Japanese Hinoki Cypress Oil and Comfrey Stem Cells, this gentle formula helps to deeply cleanse and promote skin restoration.
The best part? It is created with 98% natural origin ingredients and is suitable for all skin types. This means you are treating your mother’s skin with nature’s finest!
Purifying Cleanser
A purifying cleanser can be an ideal Mother's Day gift if you think your mom’s skin has become dull over time. Why? Well, this cleanser has a creamy texture that helps remove dead skin cells.
Moreover, the Japanese Tanakura Clay and Squalane will remove toxins from her pores. Thus leaving her with soothed and clean skin. And what about protecting her skin? Well, the Artichoke Leaf extract does that on your behalf with its antioxidant properties.
Konjac Sponge
A sponge? Is that even a moms Day gift? YES!
A Konjac sponge is not your regular sponge. They are gentle, non-irritating sponges that exfoliate the skin to remove all dead skin. Mind you, it is almost like a skincare tool! And the best part is that these Konjac sponges come in different varieties. So, depending on your mother’s skin needs, you can choose the perfect sponge to gift her.
Here’s a lowdown on the konjac sponges:
- Green Tea: Soft and slightly grainy, green tea will protect your mom's skin from excessive oiliness and dryness.
- Charcoal: Ah! Nothing like activated charcoal. This konjac sponge is a skincare tool for deep cleansing and skin purifying.
- Yuzu: Thanks to its high Vitamin C and antioxidants, the yuzu konjac sponge will give her natural protection against UV rays and wrinkles.
Nourishing Sheet Masks
Well, your mother’s skin needs more than just cleansers. It needs extra nourishment. Enter nourishing masks as presents for your mother. Wondering why they make a good adddition? Here’s why!
- Your mom only needs 15 minutes to ensure her skin is radiant and plump.
- It does not require too much effort on your mom’s end.
- Your mom gets to experience a spa-like feeling at home.
- Her skin gets all the essential nutrients it needs.
ILEM JAPAN has a range of 3 face sheet masks, each with a special ingredient. Here’s a brief for you:
Brightening Bio-Cellulose Face Mask
Oozing with hero ingredients like Vitamin C and Japanese Sakura Extract, the Brightening face sheet masks will give your mom a soft, blushing glow.
The Sakura extract will heal her skin and actively repair your mom’s skin’s barrier. Simultaneously, Vitamin C will work towards fading any age spots and uneven skin tone that may have developed over the years.
Hydrating Bio-Cellulose Face Mask
As the name suggests, this mask drenches your mom’s skin for ultimate hydration. The combination of hyaluronic acid and Japanese rice Bran extract is luxurious.
Together, they offer a gentle touch that soothes, nourishes, and rejuvenates your mother’s skin. Thus making it instantly plump and healthy.
Firming Bio-Cellulose Face Mask
Of all the three, this one is worth all the attention for your mother’s healthy skin. It is formulated with niacinamide, which is known to improve skin elasticity. This means they won't feel saggy when you pull her cheeks next. Instead, they feel plump.
Plus, her skin will look and feel younger. How? Thanks to Green tea and Niacinamide's ability to fight against wrinkles and fine lines.
Serums and Toners
As the skin ages, its needs increases. Moreover, it may require a targeted approach. All those early years spent under the sun, working really hard, and the nights she spent putting you first instead of herself may result in skin concerns like:
- Sunspots and pigmentation
- Uneven skin
- Dullness
You must take a thoughtful approach by including serums and toners. Toners will offer her skin instant hydration and clear her pores. Similarly, serums will nourish your mother’s skin with active ingredients in concentrated form, which may be absent in other products.
Of course, a single serum or toner cannot address all concerns. So, we have formulated 3 toners and 2 serums for you.
Toners
- Balancing Toner with Raspberry Fruit Extract and Japanese Yuzu Extract. It will calm her skin and moisturize it as well.
- Clarifying toner infused with Japanese Sakura and Rose fruit extract. It will gently clean your mom’s clogged pores and renew her skin.
- Soothing toner containing Japanese Fermented Rice Extract and Alpine Rose Stem Cells. This toner will leave her skin super hydrated and also boost collagen production.
Serums
- Brightening Serum with hero ingredients like Vitamin C. If your mother struggles with skin concerns like uneven skin and pigmentation, this is the right pick!
- Hydrating serum boasts hyaluronic acid and marula oil. So, if you want to shower her skin with deep, intense hydration, this one is a go-to!
Want a pro tip? Focus on boosting your mother’s skin collagen levels. “But why?” you may wonder. Well, it is because, with the passing years, her skin’s ability to create collagen has reduced. The decline usually starts after 30 and speeds up further during menopause. The result? Wrinkles and sagging skin.
Luxurious Moisturizers
Ah! The ultimate dose of moisturizer for your mother’s skin. But a moisturizer is more than just that. It is also skin-repairing and rejuvenating, one solid product that locks and enhances the goodness of all other skincare products.
