New motherhood is a dizzying blend of profound joy and utter exhaustion. Suddenly, they've exchanged maternity dresses for diapers and feeding. They're healing from birth, and their hormones are bouncing indiscriminately. Adjusting to the new role and lifestyle can be challenging, so any gift ideas should give the new mom in your life a small moment of respite and luxury.
Practical Gifts
It's traditional to give new mothers baby clothes, self-care options, and muslin blankets. New moms always need extra self-care, so we recommend some pampering from Sabon.
Gift Ideas
Gentle shower oils are a must-have for new moms. Postpartum life is plagued by hormonal acne, dry skin, and itchy rashes. New mothers need to treat their skin delicately, and Sabon's fragranced shower oils are up to the task. They're free of harsh surfactants, so they cleanse without stripping the skin of natural oils. Our gentle body washes are enriched with essential oils and create a luxurious, milky lather that leaves skin refreshed and supple.
Our mineral- and paraben-free body lotion is rich enough to soothe severely dehydrated skin. Its seven botanical oils will gently moisturize and repair skin while enriching it with protective antioxidants. Its fast-absorbing texture leaves mom feeling hydrated, but never greasy.
Nursing Essentials
Nursing and skin dryness go hand in hand. Estrogen levels drop, leaving dull, dry skin in its wake, so new moms can never own enough hydrating products.
Gift Ideas
Sabon's nourishing Repair Body Cream is one of the best gifts for new moms who are nursing. 85% of its ingredients are naturally derived, so they won't irritate a baby's delicate respiratory system. The cream contains 3% shea butter as a barrier that restores skin elasticity while locking in moisture. Rose of Jericho extract targets dry skin cells, while botanical oils deliver all the omega fatty acids mom needs to restore her silky skin texture.
Self-Care Gifts
New moms do more than their share of sanitizing and handwashing. Constant exposure to maternity cleansing products leads to painful cracks and dehydration, so the last thing new mothers need is even more dryness from soap. Sabon's natural ingredients and surfactant-free products will help skin recover its natural radiance.
Gift Ideas
The scented bath products in our #NextGen Hydrating Body Ritual will boost cell renewal, revealing the new, healthy skin underneath. The mineral-rich Dead Sea salts in the Body Scrub purify as they regenerate. The kit includes soap-free shower oil that works into a rich, hydrating lather. Finally, the fragranced body lotion completes the ritual by introducing seven botanical oils to give tired skin a velvety texture.
Our Discovery Kits are some of our most luxurious gift sets, and they're presented in premium packaging. They offer a three-step self-care ritual in all of our most popular fragrances, so it's easy to find your favorites. Papaya Loquat is a refreshing scent with sizzling citrus notes. Wonders of Jasmine is a calming alternative perfect for winding down. Comforting Patchouli, Lavender, and Vanilla is perfect for soothing a beautiful mom's anxiety.
Relaxation Products and Aromatherapy Gifts
Postpartum life can be challenging on both emotional and physical levels, so give a pampering treat to uplift the new mom's spirits. Sabon's vegan candles exude a luxe botanical fragrance with aromatherapeutic effects. Essential oils are concentrated fluids that capture a botanical's therapeutic powers, but it's important to choose unadulterated oils like Sabon's. Once the candles have burned away, the glass jars become treasured keepsakes.
Gift Ideas
Let's find your scented candle favorites:
Lavender soothes the mind and encourages a deep, restorative night's rest. Our Patchouli Lavender Vanilla candle can soothe postpartum anxiety and invite a comforting atmosphere into the home.
Jasmine is believed to support breastfeeding while elevating the mood. Choose our Jasmine and Blue Hyacinth candle for breastfeeding moms who need to combat the baby blues.
White tea is an exceptional fatigue fighter. Let the mellow, soft scent ground and soothe you on sleep-deprived days with our White Tea and Osmanthus candle.
Our Cotton Flowers candle isn't a true essential oil, but it feels as comforting as a cozy blanket. Some cultures call these blooms' familiar fragrance a symbol of a mother's love.
Heartfelt Messages
While a little luxury goes a long way for a new mom who needs to feel pampered, connection and gratitude are the greatest gift of all. A heartfelt message will elevate your gift, so Sabon's custom gift sets let you include a gift card message and a luxurious box. You'll get to mix and match your own fragrances, so your gift will add a much-needed personal touch.
Skincare Essentials
The best gifts for new moms balance pampering with practicality so that baby's arrival is a little easier to adjust to. Give the new mother in your life a moment of calm and luxury with pampering and therapeutic gifts. They'll ground her and remind her that her needs are still important.
