What to Get Mum for Mother's Day This Lockdown

mother's day

Spring is in the air and that can only mean that Mother’s Day isn’t far off either. The past year has been vastly different and immensely difficult for mothers everywhere. We’ve all struggled through a year of lockdowns and tight restrictions. Some of us have even taken on new roles as teachers, not a role most of us had ever imagined. To top it all off, we’ve not been able to access our normal support networks or socialise with our friends, family, and for many, grandchildren. It’s been tough to say the least and it’s fair to admit that we’re all a bit frazzled. Mums everywhere are definitely long overdue for a hefty dose of TLC. 

Lockdown Gifts

So, after the year we’ve all had, 14th March 2021 is the time to treat our wonderful mums to a luxurious gift. At Scentered, a company powered by working mums, we know how important daily self-care is for our sanity. Yet it’s something that mums often push to the bottom of an ever-expanding list. With this in mind, we’ve developed products that make self-care easy, practical and fundamentally that work and enhance your lifestyle.

So, whether the mum in question is retired, working, younger, older, shielding at home or caring for young children, we’ve got the perfect gift for them this Mother’s Day. Don’t forget that for all UK orders, you can add a special note at the checkout to make your gift extra special and let mum know how much she means to you.

What To Get Mum For Mother's Day in Lockdown

Scentered I Want to Feel Gift Sets combine two of our best-selling ground-breaking products. First of all, it contains our 100% natural essential oil-based Aromatherapy Balm. This easy-to-use balm is mess-free and won’t leak in your handbag. Even better, the powerful essential oils can help to create mental triggers to shift from one mindset to another. Also included in this amazing gem of a kit is a therapeutic candle, made from a custom blend of natural waxes, sustainably sourced and non-GM, with pure essential oils for a clean burn and natural fragrance. A perfect gift set for any mum, and an ideal antidote to lockdown blues. The only difficulty you’ll have is which one to choose!!!

I Want to De Stress Kit

Perfect for the Stressed Mum

Scentered’s De Stress range is a soothing, calming blend, ideal for helping mum to juggle throughout the day and keep calm and in control. It’s also a lovely blend for unwinding after a stressful day at work or looking after kids. It’s blended with Chamomile to promote calmness and Neroli and Mandarin to help soothe tension and support feelings of well-being.

I Want to Sleep Well Kit

Perfect for the Mum that can’t Sleep

We all know that mums with young kids don’t get the best night’s sleep, but more mature mothers can also suffer disrupted sleep patterns. From work stresses, to menopause, to general ageing, and traumatic events, these can all affect our sleep. Scentered’s Sleep Well range is the ideal sleep aid, quieting the mind and promoting a better, deeper quality of sleep. You’ll also awake feeling well-rested and give yourself the best chance to start the day on the right foot. Our sophisticated floral lavender blend harnesses the therapeutic benefits of Lavender, Chamomile, Palmarosa and Ho Wood, and balances them with Bois de Rose and Geranium. The Patchouli, Clove and Ylang Ylang heart brings a modern oriental twist.

I Want to Escape Kit

Perfect for the Mum who Needs More Me-Time

Let’s face it, who hasn’t been dreaming of the days when we can have time doing the things we love, go on holiday again or even just have five minutes to ourselves. If your mum is complaining of a lack of me-time or getting itchy feet, she can fulfil her needs within the comfort of her own home. 

Scentered’s Escape range is a great one to use when it’s time to shift from what you “have to do” to doing what you “want to do”. This grounding blend instantly transports you mentally to “me time”, whether that’s during a lunch break, a yoga class or a good book.  It’s an enticing blend made with Oud, to enhance clarity of mind, Sandalwood for strengthening, and which is also beneficial for yoga and meditation practice, and Frankincense grounding, balancing and useful for visualization. The second you smell this blend, you’ll be dreaming of somewhere exotic and alluring!

I Want to Be Happy Kit

Perfect for the Mum who Needs a Burst of Positivity

Who doesn’t want to start the day, feeling happy, energised and positive? All you have to do is apply our Happy Balm to your wrists, neck and temples, then stop and breathe deeply three times, inhaling its scent as you do so. Alternatively, light our Happy Candle whilst you shower and breathe in its wonderful awakening scent. This uplifting citrus and mint blend delivers an instant burst of positivity, helping you to reset your mood for the rest of the day.

If that hasn’t taken your fancy, why not buy a Love Home Aromatherapy Candle instead? After all, the likelihood is that unless you’re still living at home, you can’t give your mum a hug this Mother’s Day. Beautifully packaged, Scentered’s Love Home Aromatherapy Candle is the go-to for when you’re feeling emotional or on edge, need a hug or some self-care, and when you feel disconnected from others. It’s a beautiful, thoughtful gift that will resonate with how most mums are feeling on this lockdown Mother’s Day.
