Forget chocolates, what mums really want for Mother’s Day is a holiday!
Mother’s day is on the horizon and we all love to spoil our mums with the perfect gift.
Top Ten Mother’s Day Wish List
1. A holiday – 26% Votes: For all the hard worked mums out there who need a relaxing break, whether it’s a weekend getaway or an exotic retreat! Mums need to put their feet up sometimes too!
2. Dinner – 20% Votes: Taking a fifth of votes in the poll, wine and dine your mum this mothering Sunday with a dinner at her favourite restaurant. Not only will she get a lovely meal out of it, but she’ll also get to spend some time with you!
3. Spa Treatment Day – 12% Votes: Give your mum a pamper session to remember and book her a spa day filled with relaxing treatments. The perfect way to spend Mothering Sunday.
4. A bouquet of flowers – 9% Votes: Just because you can never go wrong with a bouquet of her favourite flowers.
5. A designer handbag – 9% Votes: One for the fashionista mums out there. Whether it’s a something she’s been dropping hints about for the last month or just a surprise to say thanks for the bag she bought you for Christmas, a little designer number will go down a treat!
6. Beauty Gift Set – 9% Votes: What better way to show your mum just how well you know her than to buy a personalized beauty gift set. Pick out her favourite shade of lipstick, colours to compliment her tone and the brands she loves.
7. Jewellery – 7% Votes: After all, diamonds are a girl’s best friend. Alternatively, you can brighten up her day with a colourful charm bracelet – a perfect sentimental gift you can add to each year.
8. Perfume – 4% Votes: All females love to be treated to a nice beauty product – especially an expensive perfume. A big bottle of her favourite scent will have her smiling with delight.
9. A family photo shoot – 3% Votes: Great for creating memories. Not only do you get a fun day out with mum, but you also get a selection of lovely photographs to take away with you.
10. Other – 1% Votes: A few fun things mums voted for were salsa classes, cream tea and wine tasting to name a few. Natalie Van Kleef, Director Zao Makeup UK & Ireland said, “It is fascinating to see expectations some mums have for Mother’s Day gifts this year, but I can completely understand a Mother’s desire for a break these days. Natalie added, “As a mum myself, I am constantly juggling family life with work and always pushed for time. So I can see why a well-deserved break away for some quality family time would be the ideal Mother’s Day gift. Also lovely to hear; most mums said gift or no gift, a card and ‘I love you’ would still make their day.”
