Mother's Day Gift Guide

As a female-founded brand with a workforce of 80% women, we take Mother's Day very seriously and love to take time to celebrate all the mothers in our lives. Moms of our own, mother figures, and hey, even ourselves. It’s a time when we get to pamper the ones we love, and be pampered—because all mothers deserve that.

In addition to cooking for our moms, calling to say hi, shooting them a little note, and all around just doting on them, we believe one of the best ways to celebrate the ones we love is with clean beauty and clean skincare that really, truly, genuinely works. 

So we put together this handy gift guide, curated and created by our moms here at RMS, for you and your moms. Because we get it—moms always know best.

Clean Beauty Gifts, From Our Moms to Yours

For the Mom on the Move: 5 Minute Clean Routine

We get it. Between carpool and soccer practice, a full-time job and her other full-time job (being a mom is more than a full-time job if you ask us, but okay) and balancing dinnertime with bedtime and, hey, maybe even a little self-care time, there’s rarely a minute for herself.

So we curated the 5 Minute Clean Routine. “Between work and my boys and, can we just say life in general?!, it can be tough to keep up,” our Chief Strategy Officer, Elaine Sack, says. “So my #1 is the 5 Minute Clean Routine. It’s got everything I need to get ready and go.”

Included is your choice of our innovative SuperNatural Radiance Serum SPF (available in 3 shades), your choice of our cult-classic UnCoverup Concealer (available in 16 skin-loving shades), your choice of our Back2Brow Pencil (available in 3 shades), and a Liplights in Bare. 

• SuperNatural Radiance Serum: This SPF-meets primer-meets-serum is perfect for spring. It smooths, it moisturizes, and it promotes a healthier-looking, glowing complexion while protecting skin from harmful rays. The best part is its soft-focus radiant filter with a hint of tint, which blurs imperfections and has zero white cast, thanks to the non-nano zinc oxide. 

• UnCoverup Concealer: Our 3-in-1 concealer, color corrector, and tinted moisturizer is formulated with skin-loving clean, organic ingredients like Coconut Oil, Castor Oil, Beeswax, Jojoba Oil, and more, for a nourishing, concentrated cream formula never dries skin out and won't settle into pores. It’s quick, easy to use, has been around since the beginning, and is one of our bestsellers—for good reason. 

• Back2Brow Pencil: Our longwear brow pencil comes in three natural-looking shades, and fills in and emphasizes brows with nourishing, creamy color thanks to a blend of hibiscus and safflower oils to help revitalize hair and promote full, impactful, healthy-looking brows. Spoolie end grooms and shapes brows, and the included RMS Beauty sharpener keeps things precise—perfect for moms on the go.

• Bare Liplight: This lip-loving, dewy-textured 3-in-1 layer of glow plumps with peptides and soothing botanical butters, multitasking perfectly as a treatment balm, a sophisticated gloss, and a subtle, stingless volumizer. Bare is a special shade that’s uniquely you; a subtle, pink gloss that reacts to your body’s natural pH for the perfect, personalized flush of color. 

For the Self-Care Devotee: The New Skincare Lineup

Skincare is self-care, and we whole-heartedly believe that powerful, potent skincare can change the way your skin looks and feels. The New Skincare Lineup includes three full-size clean skincare essentials that you can trust, including a Kakadu Beauty Oil, SuperSerum Hydrating Mist, and Kakadu Luxe Cream. All three are naturally effective, free of synthetic fragrances, and powered by Kakadu Plum, one of the most natural and stable forms of Vitamin C. 

“As a professional makeup artist for 17 years, I know how important your base—aka your skin—is for makeup,” Lisa, one of our in-house Artist Experts who specializes in the "No Makeup Makeup" look and dewy radiant skin looks, says. “And, as a mom myself, I know having time for something like an 8-10 step skincare routine just isn’t possible. The New Skincare Lineup was specially formulated by our founder and master makeup artist, Rose-Marie Swift, to balance, hydrate, and luxuriate for skin-changing results you’ll love. I use them everyday together and have seen such a change in my, and my client’s, skin.”

• Kakadu Beauty Oil: This is a new and improved version of RMS’s original Beauty Oil—now infused with Rose-Marie’s must-have Kakadu Plum Seed Oil. “This is a pure oil with adaptogenic herbs,” Rose-Marie says. “No fillers, no binders, no crap. You'll be completely obsessed, and it will change your skin."
  
  This potent blend is made of deeply nourishing oils to balance the skin, improve texture, prep for makeup, and deliver rich, radiant hydration. Its light-but-super-concentrated blend of oils and proprietary adaprogenic herbs delivers powerful antioxidant defense and an all-day glow.
  
  To use, just place a few drops into your palms and press into skin. You can also do it Rose-Marie’s way, and mix a little in with UnCoverup for a tinted moisturizer all your own.

• SuperSerum Hydrating Mist: There’s so much to love about our new SuperSerum Hydrating Mist, because it’s no ordinary face mist. This skin-nourishing multitasker is powered by GlowPlex™ with Niacinamide and natural peptides like Quinoa Seed Extract and Pea Extract to smooth, firm, and brighten skin tone. The Kakadu Plum Superfruit helps to plump and reduce the look of fine lines and wrinkles, while Mineral-Infused Sea Water, Wildcrafted Buriti Oil, and our proprietary RMS Adaptogenic Herbal Blend balances the skin and provides long-lasting hydration.
  
  "I will literally close my eyes and do a couple of soft mists over my face,” Rose-Marie says. “And it just absorbs right away in the skin. And your makeup looks so fresh like, "Oh my God, I just did my makeup from scratch again."
  
  Use it to revitalize makeup, but also feel free to use it to prep the skin for moisturizer or your skincare, or just to reinvigorate during the day. How you use it is up to you!

• Kakadu Luxe Cream: This rich-yet-lightweight, super-indulgent cream is packed with skin-firming and skin-glowing ingredients like GlowPlex™ (a complex of Niacinamide and natural peptides including Quinoa Seed Extract and Pea Extract) and superfruit Kakadu Plum.
  
  "It goes on so smooth, it's like silk,” Rose-Marie says. “You can feel a layer of moisture doing its thing on your skin without looking greasy. My skin is so soft now, I'm freaking out."
  
  To use, just take a scoop in your finger and press into skin after cleansing and applying your serums, but before applying your Kakadu Beauty Oil.

For the Globe Trotter: The Aquarian

Our founder, Rose-Marie, is an Aquarius—a highly intelligent, cerebral sign that’s independent, creative, and wonderfully sensual and mysterious. So, for her birthday month (she was born on Valentine’s Day), we curated a dreamy and one-of-a-kind three-piece kit inspired by Rose-Marie’s sign that also happens to be very travel-friendly.

“I travel a lot for work, so making sure what I’ve got fits in my carry on is super essential,” Kloe, our Creative Director and mom of two boys says. “I’m really into our Aquarian Kit, which features your choice of a ReDimension Blush, Eyelights and Liplights. Each is incredible in their own way, and when you use them all together, you’ve immediately got a gorgeous, glowing look. You can play it up for nighttime or keep it fresh and fun for daytime—how you use them is totally up to you.”  

• ReDimension Hydra Blush: Our buildable, nourishing powder blush glides on effortlessly, infusing skin with nourishing, multi-dimensional color thanks to skin-loving, clean ingredients like Wildcrafted Buriti, Organic Jojoba Oil, and our Gel2Powder formula: a sugar-derived, wet powder technology combines a creamy texture with a long-lasting 3D finish. 

• Eyelights Cream Eyeshadow: Long-wearing and creaseproof, our Eyelights Cream Eyeshadow nourishes and shines with a luminous, light-reflective finish. It’s formulated with organic green tea and natural peptide quinoa extracts, to smooth the delicate eye area with each wear. Do a sheer wash for daytime, or build it up for a dramatic, nighttime look.

• Liplights Cream Lip Gloss: This lip-loving, dewy-textured 3-in-1 layer of glow plumps with peptides and soothing botanical butters, multitasking perfectly as a treatment balm, a sophisticated gloss, and a subtle, stingless volumizer. Each of the four shades you can choose from work for all skin tones, and range from a pretty mauve to a pH-adjusting pink.

For the Brand New Mom: 24/7 Hydrating Lip Duo

If you can’t tell, we’re obsessed with creamy, lip-loving formulas. So curating the 24/7 Hydrating Duo was a no-brainer for us. “I just became a mom, so a ‘nighttime’ routine is relatively nonexistent,” Miranda, our VP of Marketing & Ecommerce, says. “That’s why I love the 24/7 Hydrating Duo. It features our Lipnights Lip Mask for nighttime, which is basically a dew-it-all untinted balm to protect and deeply moisturize at night, and a tinted Liplights for day. I keep the Lipnights Mask on my bedside table, so even when I’m exhausted, I can pop a little bit on my lips, any dry spots, and even my cuticles, and know that I did something good for morning me.”

• Lipnights Lip Mask: Get the dreamiest lips—overnight. Our ultra-nourishing, overnight treatment balm deeply hydrates, smooths, and soothes while you sleep, thanks to soothing botanical butters, Vitamin C-rich Kakadu Plum Seed Oil, plumping Peptides & Pomegranate Extract, and is naturally fragranced and flavored with Vanilla and Chamomile Oil.
  
  
• Liplights Cream Lip Gloss: Hydrate, volumize, and shine with a skin-nourishing, dewy-textured, 3-in-1 layer of glow that comes in your choice of seven subtly colorful, totally hydrating shades. 

For the Overachiever: Master Radiance Base & Skin2Skin Brush Duo

We love a good, clean base, and our Master Radiance Duo is the ultimate kit to build it. Our founder, master makeup artist Rose-Marie Swift, is a dog mom to the lovely little Ruby Moon that goes wherever our founder goes—and this duo does the same.

“The Master Radiance Base is one of my all-time favorite products. I added smoothing ingredients, like Chia and Meadowfoam Seed Oils, to create a gorgeous canvas for the skin,” Rose-Marie says. “And this Brush is everything. Flat brushes tend to drag product out of the pores. I wanted to create a slightly shaped brush that’s soft enough to keep product on, but with enough firmness to blend makeup out nicely.” 

• Master Radiance Base: What doesn’t our MRB do?? It’s a universally flattering, incandescent whipped cream highlighter that works in four ways to blur imperfections and create the ultimate glow, thanks to Organic Jojoba, Chia and Meadowfoam Seed Oils to hydrate, firm, and smooth while light-reflecting pearls help to diffuse with a radiant, soft filter. Ideal for the moms who do it all (aka every mom) and want to look like they still got eight hours of uninterrupted sleep. 
  
  
• Skin2Skin Blush Brush: Expertly designed to mimic skin to skin makeup application for a smooth, airbrushed effect that’s effortlessly natural. It’s created with high-end, synthetic fibers, and the ultra-soft bristles at the tip ensure that just the right amount of our Master Radiance Base is picked up and deposited onto skin.
