PMD Clean Facial Cleansing Device

PMD Beauty is a beauty brand known for their smart beauty tools and skincare products. One of their best sellers is the PMD clean which is a smart facial cleansing device. Using the brand's  SonicGlow™ technology, the device, with over 7,000 vibrations per minute, not only gives a deep cleanse, but also helps to firm and tone problem areas for a more youthful appearance.

Included in the box is a PMD Clean device, a stand and 1 AA battery. Using the PMD Clean is very simple. Wet your face with warm water and also rinse the device head. Apply a cleanser of your choice, turn on the PMD Clean (Mode 1 or 2) and move the brush head in circular motion on the face. Once done, rinse the face, part dry and apply moisturiser. Activate Mode 3 or 4 and massage in the product.

The PMD Clean is coated with an ultra-hygienic silicone, which is anti-bacterial, hypoallergenic, waterproof and very easy to clean. Makes for a great gift for the mum who enjoys her skincare routine.

Does your mum love a good G&T? Then the next couple of gift suggestions are perfect for her.

Lind & Lime Gin

Lind & Lime Gin is a Scottish gin produced in the Port of Leith Distillery in Edinburgh. It is gin that is inspired by the historic distilling district of Leith and gets the first part of its name from Dr. James Lind, a Scottish doctor, who discovered the effect of citrus fruits on scurvy.

The Lind & Lime Gin (£34.95, available from Master of Malt) uses Lime for flavour alongside Pink Peppercorn and botanicals like Juniper, Angelica Root, Coriander Seed, Liquorice Root & Orris Root to balance out its strong, fresh citrus notes. 

Presented in a beautiful bottle, this is a refreshing and zesty gin that makes for a perfect G&T on a sunny afternoon.

A fantastic gin and great gift! And a gin like this needs the right glasses to go with it, which is what my next suggestion is.

For the music-loving mum, the Edifier X3 True Wireless Earbuds would make a great gift. Ultra-compact, ergonomic and with good sound quality, the Edifier X3 will let your mom listen to her favourite music like never before.

Key features of the Edifier X3 include:

• High-Fidelity aptX decoding technology and finely tuned by a professional acoustic team – so they sound great.

The build quality is great, the earbuds are comfortable to wear (even for prolonged periods) and have touch controls for most features. The sound quality is good and the earbuds can deliver 6 hours of playback on a full charge.

The earbuds feature the latest Bluetooth and come in two colours - white and black. You can purchase the Edifier X3 True Wireless Earbuds here.

Prosecco from Co-op

For the mum who loves a good bottle of wine, here are two recommendations from Prosecco brand Corte Molino. Featured in the guide are:

• Corte Molino Prosecco
• Corte Molino Pink Prosecco

Light, with lovely fruity flavours and easy to drink, the former is a lovely fizz. The latter has delicate floral notes and flavours of raspberry and strawberry and lights up the taste buds. It is a treat to drink. My favourite of the two is the Corte Molino Pink Prosecco.

Both of them are priced at £8.50 and can be picked up from www.coop.co.uk

Driftwood Designs Oven Glove & Tea Towel

For the mum who is a cooking/baking enthusiast, these oven gloves and tea towel from Driftwood Designs would make a great gift.

Founded in 2005 by artist Lizzie Spikes, Driftwood Designs sells a  range of beautiful products including cards, prints, posters, homewares, bags, clothing and more.

I have included two lovely products from their ‘Calonnog – Hearty’ range. The new collection features vibrant, full colour prints on 100% cotton and in addition to the oven gloves and tea towels (featured in the guide) includes aprons, bags and velvety cushions.

The oven gloves (£25.00) measure 200 x 960mm, are beautiful and sturdy with the top fabric being 100% cotton 1/2 panama while the bottom fabric is polyester/cotton toweling.

The tea towel (£12.50) measures 710 x 460mm, is made from 100% cotton 1/2 panama and can be washed at up to 30 degrees, tumble dried and ironed on low heat.

The quality of both the items is great and I loved the beautiful print of the ‘Calonnog – Hearty’ range; it can add a splash of colour to any kitchen. Makes for a great, little gift!

Each of their teas has been designed with a specific purpose; for e.g. Milk's Up breastfeeding tea is designed to naturally support mothers while nursing while Get Up & Glow is great for when mums need a boost, but caffeine is off the menu.

Foamie 2-in-1 body bars

For the mum who loves cruelty-free, vegan and plastic-free beauty products, why not gift a bundle of products from Foamie. Foamie's scientifically formulated range is soap-free, vegan, gentle and made with absolutely no nasties.

Their product range includes 2-in-1 body bars, shampoo bars, conditioner bars, face bars and Travel Buddy (a case for their solid shampoo and conditioner).

Featured in this guide is the Travel Buddy along with two of their body bars.

The 2-in-1 body bars cleanse, nourish and refresh the skin while also stimulating it with the massaging indentations on the bars. The Peppermint and Green Tea bar has peppermint oil which opens the pores, allowing for deep cleansing while green tea invigorates the skin. The Papaya and Oatmilk Bar on the other hand has oat milk to gently clean and soothe the skin, and papaya for moisturisation.

The bars feel wonderful on the skin and smell great as well. But the best part about them is that they are free from Silicones, Soap, SLS, Mineral oils, Benzyl Salicylate and Sugar surfactants. There is no palm oil as well.

The Travel Buddy is a reusable travel box for solid shampoo and conditioners and is made of 80% wheat fiber and 20% recycled polypropylene. It is compact and light and easy to clean. Great way to carry our Foamie bars while travelling. A simple and clever design that helps to extend the life of Foamie bars.

MamaBabyBliss' product range for mums and mums-to-be includes massage oil, pulse point oils, breastfeeding cream and stretchmark oil. All the products are made from 100% natural ingredients and essential oils.

I have featured two lovely products from the brand in this guide:

• Joy Pulse Point Oil (ideal for new mums)

The Zest Pulse Point Oil has mandarin oil which is known to relieve nausea and geranium oil which is wonderful for balancing the hormones. For mums-to-be who are suffering from  tiredness and/or morning sickness, this pulse point oil works as a perfect pick-me-up.

The Joy Pulse Point Oil is made with bergamot, rosemary, lime and geranium essential oils and is a revitalising pick-me-up because of the mood-lifting properties of the oils. Great for busy mums.

Both the pulse point oils are dermatologically tested and can be applied on the wrists or temples for an instant pick-me up.

Simsanté Chocolate

Founded by Simrin Singh who is a qualified Nutritionist, Simsanté Chocolates is a collection of handcrafted, organic and nutrient packed chocolates. According to the brand, "their chocolate has more nutritional value than any other dark chocolate brand in the market, as it is infused with ancient grains, natural essential oils, protein rich nuts, gut strengthening spices, seeds packed with omega 3 and dark chocolate rich in flavanoids and other antioxidants."

The recently launched collection comprises of 4 vegan choices and 2 vegetarian options:

• Matcha Tastic (Non Vegan)
• Milky Magic (Non Vegan)
• Orange Power (Vegan)
• Protein Crunch (Vegan)
• Nutri Noutrish (Vegan)
• Ayurvedic(Vegan)

We sampled Matcha Tastic and Nutri Nourish and loved both. Packed full of plant based ingredients and with all natural goodness, the chocolates were a treat for the taste buds. Both the flavours had super ingredients like puffed Amarnath, Melon seeds, Sunflower seeds, roasted Hazlenuts, Puffed Quinoa, Pumpkins seeds, Crushed Walnuts, Almond, Sesame seeds and more. Super tasty and super healthy as well.

We also liked the fact that the chocolates include Jaggery (gur/gud in Hindi) which is an ingredient that I use at home in most traditional Indian sweet dishes. This along with the use of herbs/spices adds a unique flavour to the chocolates. Plus, the crunch of the roasted nuts is lovely. We enjoyed it.

Priced at £9.49 for 4 bar box and £26.99 12 bar box, you can order Simsanté chocolates online from www.simsante.co.uk
