• Well-intentioned gifts like flowers and chocolates can wilt or be eaten before the actual day of Mother's Day is over, but a skin-care gift can last longer than you'd think — especially if it serves as part of the recipe for great skin.
• As an added bonus, maybe your mom will finally stop moving a mile a minute and take time to indulge herself for once. 
• Here are 20 skin-care gifts any mom would love. And if she's not into skin care, well, we've got a ton of other gift ideas over here too.

Flowers can wilt after a week, chocolates get inhaled too fast, and home-cooked breakfasts might be over-salted — your mom's excitement from well-intentioned Mother's Day gifts can be short-lived.

On the other hand, a good skin-care routine can result in amazing skin that lasts, along with a newfound appreciation for self-care that forces your mom to indulge herself for once — and that's what you're giving when you pick up one of these skin-care gifts. 

Here are our favorite skin-care gifts to treat and pamper one of the hardest-working women you know:

A facial spray trio to refresh skin any time she wants

Buy the Mario Badescu Spritz Mist and Glow Facial Spray Collection, 3 Piece Set - Lavender, Cucumber, Rose at Amazon for $21

She can break apart this trio of refreshing facial sprays and keep one at her desk, night stand, and bathroom for a pick-me-up whenever she wants.

A skin-smoothing essence for brighter skin

Buy the Missha Time Revolution The First Treatment Essence at Urban Outfitters for $49

Fermented yeast sounds gross, but it's also a powerful skin-care ingredient that can help smooth, brighten, and refine skin — and is the most potent active in Missha's Time Revolution essence. 

Don't let a drop go to waste either — instead of saturating a cotton pad, just use your hands to pat the essence on your face.

A revitalizing set that'll finally make her slow down

Buy the Lancôme Absolue Discovery Set at Nordstrom for $120

Even if she's always operating a mile a minute, she'll want to slow down and indulge her skin with these revitalizing products. This set includes two types of face cream, an eye serum, and a lip balm, all of which are intensely rich and loaded with potent rose extracts to rejuvenate and smooth skin.
