Mother’s Day is coming up on Sunday, May 12th, and a few readers have requested a gift guide. I know many people have complicated mother/daughter relationships and find the day stressful, so please feel free to skip. But, if you’d like, here are 12 fun ideas for the mothers and mother figures in your lives…

The highlighter all my friends are obsessing over — a dab gives you a translucent glow, not a shimmer, and makes skin look glassy and fresh. $18. (Plus, it’s fun to try a beauty product together!)
Ridiculously pretty date-sweetened chocolate that tastes fruity, rich, jammy, nutty, all the flavors. $36 for three — plus, get 15% off your first purchase with use code CUPOFJO.
A beautiful cashmere tee to wear as a uniform year round, $130. Comes in five colors. (This is also so lovely.)
