The best beauty gifts for Mother’s Day
Louis Vuitton eLVes Eau de Parfum
According to the French house, this fragrance “embraces the universal courage, strength, and beauty exemplified by women in all their dimensions”.

It’s a floral scent, with centifolia rose at its foundation, plus lily-of-the-valley, ambroxan, patchouli and other fruity notes.
Dyson Airwrap
We’ve heard the Dyson Airwrap described as life changing. And for someone to use such strong wordage to describe a multi-styler, it speaks for itself.

This Mix & Match couture case will allow you to personalise mum’s lipstick mix by choosing two of any of Dior’s extensive Addict range, which has just been bolstered by ten new colours designed by renowned makeup artist Peter Phillips.
