Where would we all be without mum...well Mother's Day is that day each year dedicated the fantastic job she does. With it now around the corner we know how easy it is to be stuck for ideas.

Well take a look at our Mother's Day 2015 essentials - maybe these will help you out.

Gifts

Braun Multiquick 5 Juicer – RRP £129.99

Is your mum a bit of a kitchen appliance geek? Well this would be perfect for her. We all know how important your 5 a day is – this juicer really makes that more feasible. We love that you can use hard fruits, soft fruits and vegetables – so essentially this juicer is a great way of getting veggies down the little ones in a sneaky way! Ok, this is a gift for mum, but she will definitely appreciate this gadget making life much easier.

This is perfect if you really don’t fancy filling yourself up on a heavy smoothie – we couldn’t believe how smooth the juice came out, no bits in sight. The Braun J500 Multiquick 5 Juicer is so quick and easy to use, you literally bung all your ingredients through the top tunnel which is 75mm so you really can chuck in whole fruits – ideal, then using the two-speed setting, whiz it up and you have a jug full of tasty, healthy and smooth juice.

The bonus about this product is how simple it is to take apart to clean. The filter is a little hard to clean but you do get a cleaning brush with the juicer. This small step-back however is forgiveable, as you can just stick the other parts into the dishwasher and - wham! You're ready to go again!

Shloer Celebration White Bubbly - RRP £2.99

If you’ve been thinking about a home cooked meal this Mother's Day this is the perfect accompaniment for the table, with no alcohol this is an especially delicious gift for those who are pregnant or nursing. This is an absolute bargain and available at most supermarkets you have no excuse. Whack out the champagne glasses and you really won’t feel like you’re missing out on those bubbles.

Shloer is ideal for creating that special day with the whole family including the little and big ones – I have no doubt that they will feel super excited, this really is a delightfully flexible bottle of fizz. The best thing about this drink is that the flavour really does not let it down. A fantastic fruity fusion, it really was summer in a cup! Give this a go on Mother’s Day and you will certainly be content, YUM!

Liz Earle Cleanse & Polish Beauty trio - RRP £50

I have complete trust in Liz Earle skincare for all skin types and this Cleanse and Polish is a really reliable assistant – one that I wouldn’t want to be without. I would recommend this product to every age and skin type as it offers an extremely gentle cleanse that fights through all the ‘bad’ stuff on your face including the feistiest mascara, which can be a nightmare to remove when you’re sleepy. After polishing off the cream with a pure muslin cloth your skin will be left feeling revived and beaming.

Well this Mother's Day you really cannot go wrong with Liz Earle especially when its x3. They have this elegant limited edition gift in a lovely collector’s tin, with 3 new cleansers. Rose & Lavender, Grapefruit & Patchouli and Orange Flower & Chamomile so you have a scent to cover every mood. I have no doubt this gift will get your mum hooked on Cleanse & Polish and trusting Liz Earle, and the best part is these pump bottles really do last so your mum won’t be spending every week!

Braun Satin Hair 7 Sensodryer - RRP £74.99

You probably don’t realise a hairdryer is almost an everyday essential. Can you remember the last time you bought a new hairdryer? It probably isn’t on the top of your ‘to buy list’ well you should definitely treat your mum to a new one this Mother's Day. The new Braun SensoDryer will not disappoint! I am usually awful at blow drying my hair, leaving myself looking like a frizzy lion. We all know that feeling of coming out of the hairdressers with new hair bouncing around and quite frankly feeling like a goddess, you can now get that every day, in the comfort of your own home.

This dryer is incredible at letting you achieve that professional ‘hairdresser’ look. The temperature control is faultless, with other dryers you either have air blasting at your head that is too hot you would probably burn your scalp if you didn’t stop constantly or so cold you really aren’t helping the drying process whatsoever. Originally I didn’t understand what a built-in Thermo Sensor (measuring temperature 600 times a minute) meant. What is means is through-out the 10 settings, heat will always be distributed evenly preventing hair drying out and that dreaded frizz and it really does do what it says on the tin – not only an efficient hairdryer but a sophisticated one at that. For that feel good factor this is worth every penny!

NYDJ Jeans - RRP From £99.99

NYDJ jeans are the perfect gift for a mum who has spent year sacrificing style for comfort and shapewear. Why not look fabulous and enjoy the benefits of Shapology simulatenously?

Although these jeans may be slightly up market for some, they truly are worth every penny! Every pair of NYDJs use their exclusive Lift Tuck Technology®, a slimming panel with the patented criss-cross design helping to flatten in the front, and a weaving technique giving a lifting and smoothing effect in the back.

NYDJ are so confident that this works that they encourage you to buy your NYDJs one size smaller than your usual jeans! But if you don't believe it, try them on! NYDJs are available from leading department stores.
