mother’s day gift guide can you believe april is almost over?? this means that mother’s day is right around the corner! if you aren’t the best at giving gifts like me, it can be hard to think of fun and thoughtful gifts for mom each year on mothers’ day. lucky for you, this week’s blog post is a mother’s day gift guide! while i love giving gifts like flowers and candles, i also love finding practical (but thoughtful/sweet) gifts. below are 3 things i think your mom (but mostly mine :p) would love! *mom, if you’re reading this, your gift may or may not be listed here. may or MAY NOT be ;). here is my mother’s day gift guide! – aromatherapy essential oil diffuser necklace my friend moriah (yo wassup girl) has one of these and loves it! if you’re into aromatherapy, or maybe your mom is, OR neither of you are but you’ve always been curious about it, this will be the perfect gift to give! essentially (no pun intended), it’s a necklace that diffuses oils to you all day while you wear it. so cool and also very affordable. you can get the necklace in a million different designs as well as a crazy variety of essential oils. you can also get car air fresheners! i’ve linked one from amazon >>> here <<< at home teeth whitening kit with smile brilliant if you’ve been following along with my blog over the last little bit, you will have heard me talk about smile brilliant before. if not, you can check out my last blog post here. what better gift to give than the gift of a whiter, brighter smile??? honestly. i LOVE smile brilliant so much! it’s easy, it’s affordable, and it actually delivers results. what more could you ask for? they make custom trays that fit perfectly for your unique smile so you do not miss a spot! have sensitive teeth like me and find it hard to eat ice cream, let alone whiten your teeth? well you and your mom are in luck! smile brilliant has a sensitivity gel that you place in the trays and use for about 10-15 mins before you whiten. after that, you’re good to go! the best part is that you can multi-task while you are whitening. so if your mom is super busy, like mine, she can whiten her teeth…
