Last Minute Mother's Day gift ideas

Mothers Day is quickly approaching, so what’s topping wish lists this year? Style expert, Jeannine Morris gave us the scoop.

Something hot this year that Mom’s will love are these cool watches from Timex…their Modern Originals Easy Reader. The monochromatic, darker hues are great for a night out, while the white with rainbow numerals add a fun pop of color. At Nordstroms for $65. They also have a weekender collection with really fun colors…for a more casual look. These have interchangeable nylon slip-thru straps that are so cool…$34.99 dollars at Target.

For a little pampering pick up the L’Occitane Delightful Hands collection gift set. A trio of hydrating and nourishing hand creams with delicate peony scent, smoothing almond and shea butter. It smooths and protects your hands. Best part, the set comes beautifully wrapped…a perfect gift for $28. They also have a Pivoine Delicate collection with eau de toilette and shimmering powder that leaves behind a delicate floral scent…so pretty starting at $12. L’Occitane products are available at usa.loccitane.com and in 160 L’Occitane boutiques throughout the U.S.

Makeup is always fun for mom and Ulta ( I LOVE Ulta!) has some awesome things with really great values, like their 5-in-1 color collection. It’s a 61 piece collection with 5 different palettes to create custom looks. 10 eye shadows, with coordinating cheek shades, 2 mini lip glosses and 3 dual ended eyeliners for $24.99. I recently bought a make up kit in a three tier faux alligator case for 20 bucks.

They also have exclusive Smashbox Shades Of Fame Reflection Lip Gloss Kits, $29
---5 ultra-shiny travel size lip glosses, so cute. And if your mom likes to do her nails, try Ulta’s 5-piece Nail Lacquer Collection, $9.95. It’s a professional 5 piece mini pack in really fun summer shades.

One of the most thoughtful and heartfelt gifts you can celebrate with this Mother’s Day is the ‘gift of giving.’ JOHNSON'S® Baby has just launched a new charitable platform, JOHNSON'S® Baby CARES –and they’re donating thousands of JOHNSON'S® Baby CARES Kits, filled with washes, shampoos, diaper creams and lotions to Save the Children, to help families in need care for their babies in times of disaster.

This is all part of the brand’s commitment to the healthy development of babies and its’ mission to support families around the world.

You can help by simply viewing the 'You're Doing OK Mom' video on the JOHNSON's® Baby YouTube Page. When they reach 500,000 views, the brand will donate an additional $50,000 to Save the Children. Go to the JOHNSON'S® Baby Facebook Page, to learn more about it.
