Every year, Mother's Day rolls around, and the panic-buying begins. Another candle? Another "World's Best Mom" mug? Maybe a scarf she'll wear once and pretend to love? It's not that she isn't grateful — moms are gracious like that. But if we're being honest, there's something she wants even more than another item gathering dust: she wants a memory.
This Mother's Day, it's time to ditch the stuff and give her something that actually lasts: an experience.
The Science of Why Experiences > Things Studies have shown that experiences create longer-lasting happiness than material goods. While a new sweater eventually fades into the background, a joyful memory — like laughing through a messy at-home facial — stays vivid and sweet.
Experiences foster connection, boost serotonin levels, and give people stories to tell. (And trust us, your mom deserves a few more "remember when" moments.)
Stuff She's Pretended to Love (And We All Know It)
-
Candles she’ll never light.
-
Coffee mugs multiplying like rabbits in the cabinet.
-
Scarves when it’s 70° and sunny.
-
Random bath bombs (is her bathtub a glittery danger zone yet?)
-
Wall art that says "Live Laugh Love" (she’s been living, laughing, and loving for decades — she's got it covered.)
What Moms Actually Want
-
Time spent with people they love.
-
Laughter they can replay in their minds.
-
Moments that make them feel seen, celebrated, and cherished.
-
Self-care that leaves them feeling radiant inside and out.
A full facial experience isn’t just skincare — it’s a chance to laugh at messy mask moments, snap ridiculous selfies, and glow together. It’s about connection, self-love, and yes, a little pampering that she would never buy for herself.
