Do you remember a viral video by American Greetings titled #WorldsToughestJob? In the video, we were reminded that “Mom” is the world’s toughest job, you have long hours, constant in need, never a moment of complete rest, high emotional stress, selfless, often thankless and no pay! When I saw that video, I admit, I cried. I was reminded how much my mom gone through, over the years I watch her youth and beauty turned to gray hair and wrinkles from the hours spent restless and worried about her daughter. I never hesitate to buy her the best anti-aging skincare products because I know that she deserves the best.
This Mother’s Day, really think about all the emotional and physical hardship mother’s have been through and pamper her with some of the world’s best products. I am going to recommend some of my personal favorites, there have been used, tested and personally stamped “Approved” by me and you all know that I don’t plug products I don’t stand behind. You might have seen a lot of them on my Instastory when I share my day/night skincare routines. Yes, they are pricier than average, but compared to the hours upon hours moms spent on us, it is a mere fraction of investments over time. Without further ado, my Mother’s Day Nothing Best The Best for Moms Skincare Guide.
La Mer – La Mer is one of the most recognizable and coveted skin care brand in the world. The Crème de La Mer is nothing short of legendary, it is ultra rich, moisturizing and often sought after by celebrities. But besides the creme, I also am obsessed with the Renewal Oil and the new Brilliance Brightening Mask as an addition to my skincare ritual.
La Prairie – La Prairie’s origins can be traced back to the famous La Prairie Clinic in Montreux, Switzerland – a pioneer in anti-aging cellular therapy. While not as widely recognized as La Mer, La Prairie represents exclusive, scientifically advanced skin care with patented active ingredient complex called Exclusive Cellular Complex that effectively protects the skin against aging and damaging environmental influences.
Sulwhasoo – Many of my U.S. readers may not recognize this hard to pronounce brand name, but say the word Sue-Whaa-Soo to any Asian (particularily Korea, Japan and China) skincare specialist, their eyes will lit up. Sulwhasoo is the No. 1 skincare brand in Korea, it has an unwavering commitment to Korean Herbal Medicinal Skincare. Many of the ingredients in the products are holistic and drawn from Korean herbal medicine for its healing powers. When I have a terrible night from taking care of the kids, I use the overnight mask that reawakens skin’s natural glow while I sleep.
SK-II – Another brand that is less known in the U.S. but wildly popular in Japan and Asia. Discovered by chance by scientists observed the soft and youthful hands of aged sake brewers, SK-II is known for Pitera™ a clear liquid rich in vitamins, amino acids, minerals and organic acids work to dramatically improve the skin’s natural surface rejuvenation process. I use it daily after face wash and keeps my skin feeling soft and fresh.
Show moms out there how much she really deserves to be pampered, her skin needs to be renewed from all the late nights and worrys and shower her with love and all the best in the world!!

I agree, that touches home for many of us and it doesn’t click until we ourselves become moms. The minute you want to do something for yourself, the monstrous amount of guilt that weighs over you is excruciating. It really makes you reflect on those times you’ve given hardship to your mom. Thanks for this, moms do deserve the best. Would love to connect at http://the-wardrobe-stylist.com/2017/05/07/work-wear-tips/
WOW I see those evergreen luxurious asian brands like SK2 & Sulwhasoo! I’ve seen La Mer on my IG feed – not sure if it ships to Singapore but I would love to try it out soon if given a chance 😉 And thanks for sharing with us your gift ideas for Moms 🙂
I had a same feelings when I watched this video, they did really great job! I wish my mom was living with me in same country and city. Last time I was back in my home country 4 years ago. Enjoyed reading this skin guide for mom, I actually use some of this products myself, because asian products are best to take care of your skin from aging!

Love your selection girl! Those skin products are really the best of the best! I got my mother a bottle of Le Mer a few years ago and she loved it so much! Thinking about getting her something along the skincare line for a present for this year. In the end, I got her a voucher for a department store instead so she can pick something she likes.

Happy Tuesday
These are all skincare brands I’ve always been curious to try, especially La Mer and La Prairie. They sound so luxurious and are both packaged beautifully. I know my mom would love trying some of these. She is a sucker for skincare as well and she’s who I get mine from!

I am so bad at using anti aging stuff. I also have extremely sensitive skin but the SKII brand has seriously a magical mask. It’s to die for. The other brands I’ve never tried other than La Mer and I hear it is great for anti aging! Their face serum is actually really amazing too!! You’re giving me some facial skincare inspo!
These are great products! I never knew the love that my mother had for me until I was showing love in every detail with my children! Even whipping noses and kissing boo boos! La Mere is fantastic and I adore them! I haven’t heard of La Prairie before but I’m a fan of anything I’ve tried from Switzerland and I’m sure this would be fantastic too! The packaging alone is so pretty! Sulwahsoo sounds amazing and the fact that it’s Herbal leads me I believe it works wonders! I’ve used Ski before but not long enough to really determine if I love it or not! This is such a perfect round up of skin care goodies for mamas!

My mom is such a freak of beauty product so this post its really interesting and informative to me. All the beauty lines in here sounds amazing.

It truly almost brings a tear to my eye when I think about how much my mother has done to me and how vital she is to my life. I’ve sure given her both one and two gray hairs and pampering her is like my life mission now that I’m finally able to do so. Here in Sweden we’re a bit odd as you know, so we celebrate Mother’s Day on the 28th of May so I still am trying to figure out what to give her. La Mer really is on top of the list of giving her as it kind of has a double meaning to it (la mer = the ocean, ma mere = my mother) and if it’s approved by you, I completely trust you. 🙂
