Let’s be real: Procrastination gets the best of us. However, with Mother’s Day just six days away (phew, time flies), it’s really time to start jumping on the shopping bandwagon if you haven’t already. Shopping at direct retailers is likely out of the question at this point, so unless you want to cough up the extra funds for express or overnight shipping, we’d recommend buying something off of Amazon Prime. Not only will you get your packages within two days (or sooner) right at your doorstep, Amazon Prime is stocked with quality gifts that’ll look like you spent hours picking them out.
From luxurious hand creams to top-notch blenders, check out our top last-minute Mother’s Day gifts you can score from Amazon below.
Beauty
Our moms deserve the world, and that includes moisturized hands. Enter…L’occitane’s Shea Butter Hand Cream. The star ingredient is the organic shea butter, which is the ultimate thirst-quencher for dry hands and revives parched skin cells. Almond and coconut scented, this luxurious cream not only transforms dry, parched paws, but it also smells like freshly baked cookies.
For moms that need a little TLC, you can’t go wrong with Laneige. This Besties Kit is set with a full skin-care routine. What’s included in the kit? A hyaluronic cleansing foam, serum, moisturizer, sleeping mask, and the brand’s famous lip mask, all of which are formulated with a fermented hyaluronic acid that delivers double the hydration. Hello, healthier and more radiant-looking skin.
Moms on the go will appreciate this travel-sized bottle of Kora Organics’ Noni Glow Plumping Face Oil.

Yup, it’s the hair dryer brush everyone loves and won’t stop talking about (it has nearly 300,000 ratings on Amazon alone). And it’s 27 percent off right now (it usually goes for $55, which is still a steal for a hot tool). Beloved for its drying power, ionic and ceramic technology that gives you smooth, silky, and voluminous waves without having to blow dry and then curl your hair, the Revlon One-Step hair dryer brush is a must-have. And your mom will thank you for it (especially after they realize it’ll save them a good 10-20 minutes every time they do their hair!). Read the full Revlon Hair Dryer Brush review here.
Yep, you can shop Chanel on Amazon. Treat Mom to a luxury lipstick she’ll love to carry in her bag (it’s just so pretty). We especially love “Mademoiselle,” which is a dusty rose pink that looks good on everyone. The formula is ultra moisturizing, too (the combination of mimosa, jojoba, and sunflower oil delivers long-lasting hydration).

W+G editor tried-and-tested, these do-it-all leggings don’t break the bank and they offer enough support, compression, and comfort to last through hot yoga, runs, HIIT, stroll around the block, and then some (including days spent catching up on Succession on the couch). Leggings are an easy gift, since nobody can have too many—the limit simply does not exist.
Food
Garlic-infused anything is sure to season a dish with flavor. The only thing, though: Garlic is a pain to peel and cut. For moms who love to cook, you can make their lives a little simpler this Mother’s Day with Kosterina’s Garlic Olive Oil. Each bottle is filled with 100 percent premium extra virgin olive oil; the olives are cold-pressed in southern Greece. The roasted garlic adds a soft, buttery flavor, no matter if you’re stir frying veggies or sautéing protein.
Appliances that are just as pretty as art? Yes, they exist, and the Beast Blender and Hydration System looks like something you’d hang up at MOMA. And it’s just as functional as it is beautiful—the Beast is known for its high-powered motor, chopping and dicing and smoothie-ifying even the most icy of frozen banana slices (our editorial commerce director loves it even more than her Vitamix).
