20 Mother's Day 2021 Gifts For Your Sister, Because She Deserves It


If your sister is a parent, you’ve gotten some pretty amazing nieces and nephews out of the deal, and being an aunt or uncle is pretty much the best. Whether you and your sis are lucky enough to raise kids near each other or you rely on FaceTime for check-ins, let her know that you’re thinking of her with one of these Mother’s Day gifts for your sister (or sister-in-law). Maybe she’s a new mom, still trying to get her sea legs in the overwhelming months after giving birth. In that case your sister may appreciate a CBD tincture, a luxe body oil, or even a smart water bottle to help her remember to get those eight 8-ounce glasses in a day (and even more if she’s breastfeeding).

Maybe she’s an old pro at the motherhood game and what she’ll really love is a sentimental piece of art commemorating her kids’ birthdays, or on the other hand, a trio of clean wines. Whether she’s your sister in the sense that you share parents, or she’s a friend who feels like family, these Mother’s Day gifts for sisters are thoughtful, functional, and a little decadent, because she may not treat herself, but you can.

An Exfoliating Mask

If she doesn’t have time to get to the spa, she’ll appreciate this exfoliating mask as a next-best option. From beloved natural skincare brand, Herbivore, this jelly mask combines AHA and BHA to help revive skin. Best of all, it only needs to be left on for ten minutes.

A Powerful CBD Tincture

Every mom can use a little dose of chill every now and then, and this cinnamon-flavored CBD tincture does the trick. It’s made with a potent 600 milligrams of CBD, plus it’s lab-tested and from a certified-organic hemp farm.

She can keep her kids close to her heart with this minimalist initial necklace that’s finished with a subtle gemstone on the clasp, each thought to bring specific qualities like balance, calm, hope, or intuition.

A Beautiful Diffuser

Whether she already collects essential oils or just wants to add a dose of chicness (and moisture) into her at-home office, you can’t go wrong with a diffuser, especially one that’s this beautiful. It’s made of a matte ceramic and comes in several cool colors like blush pink or classic black, this functional decor will be a hit (and bonus points if you throw in some essential oils from Vitruvi, too).

A Rich Moisturizer

Dry winter skin needs a buttery moisturizer, and moms need a lotion that dries quickly because they don’t have a lot of time to lounge around in a towel. This body soufflé uses whipped shea and cocoa butters plus plant extracts for an airy moisturizer that feels and smells amazing.

An Eco-Friendly Bag For Potlucks

It’s fair to assume that once it’s safe to do so, people are going to be gathering as much as possible. This clever dish tote is perfect for bringing a dish to share without worrying that it’s going to tip over or spill in the bag. It’s made with 100% organic and food-safe cotton.

A Statement Earring

Any outfit gets an instant upgrade with these lion earrings that look like they should cost a whole lot more than they do. The word ‘lejonhjärta’ means “lion heart” in Swedish and these are especially perfect if she or her child is a Leo, the lion sign.

A Set of Snail Products

Giving someone you don’t know well a set of snail products may not be the right move, but your sister will be nothing but appreciative for this kit that use snail mucin to help skin glow and look its healthiest. Mucin may sound strange, but fun fact: it contains allantoin which helps repair a snail’s shell if it gets broken, and works wonders on skin.
