Need a gift for mom that’s super special and handmade? We got you! There’s nothing more thoughtful than a gift made by hand, and we’ve rounded up some super simple, stylish, DIY ideas that are not only great for Mother’s Day, but can be given year-round. We especially love that they are free of toxins and harmful ingredients – additions that are sadly often found in beauty and bath products.
French Green Clay Mask
This beautiful mask is made with French green clay, calendula, apple cider vinegar and our luxurious Rose Regenerative blend.
Rose Regenerative facial oil is an extremely potent, effective blend of rare essential oils formulated to refresh and support stressed, aging and dry skin. Rose Regenerative promotes longevity while stimulating circulation for a healthy glow and more youthful appearance.
Pair this mask with a couple beautiful hand towels and some chocolate in a nice basket and you have the perfect special little gift of luxury.
Ingredients: 2 T. French Green Clay
2 ½ T. Apple Cider Vinegar
½ T. Calendula VPO
5 Drops of Rose Regenerative EO
Small Amber Jar
Instructions: Place all ingredients in a stainless-steel bowl. Blend until combined as a smooth paste. Add to a small amber jar and put in fridge until ready to use. (Can be left out of the refrigerator for about a day). To use, apply mask to face and let sit for 15-20 minutes. Remove with warm water and a washcloth.
Rose Lavender Bath Soak
Perfect for a relaxing bath after a long stressful day! We’ve paired up Lavender, Rose, and Orange with some Epsom salts for this simple soak. Lavender is a wonderful essential oil for promoting relaxation.
Rose Otto is among the most luxurious and precious of essential oils, requiring 50-60 million blossoms to make just one liter of oil. Its beautifully deep, earthy, floral scent is prized in perfumery and works as an emotional tonic, soothing distress and encouraging balance, perfect for a beautiful bath soak.
We added a little Orange essential oil to the mix because it pairs beautifully with Rose and Lavender and gives a bright, sweet, uplifting aroma.
Ingredients: 2 C. Epsom Salts
15 drops of Lavender essential oil
10 drops of Rose essential oil
3 drops of Orange essential oil
Handful of dried rose petals (optional)
Handful of lavender flowers (optional)
Instructions: Place Epsom salts in a glass bowl. Add oils and mix until oils are well distributed throughout the salts. Stir in your lavender flowers and Rose petals. Store in a glass jar. For a luxurious bath, add 2-3 T. of the mixture to your tub.
