Flowery and feminine are the standard Mother’s Day beauty gift go-tos, but chic moms may appreciate it if you went for a punk-rock edge.
In a Blink
Electric Pressed Pigment Palette and Skullcandy Electric Headphones by Urban Decay
Color fanatics will enjoy this palette of 10 shocking-bright creamy shadows. The hues include a neon matte cobalt, a silver shimmer and a hot pink, and the case is just as cool as the shades. For extra punch, pair with a matching over-ear, makeup-proof studded headphone set from the electronics brand Skullcandy. (Electric Palette, $49, Electric Headphones, $100, urbandecay.com)
Not for Tots
Cut Up Collection Set by Butter London
Nails go from plain to pop with this set of glittering overcoats from the British brand known for its low-chemical lacquers. Moms can wear the black and silver, gold and shiny multicolor on a finger as an accent or polish all for full-on sparkle. ($25, butterlondon.com)
Crazy Salad
Playing with the Devil by Kilian
The French perfumer Kilian Hennessy contrasts sweet and spice in this heady scent, part of the In the Garden of Good and Evil collection. It includes fruits like lychees, blood oranges and black currants as well as fiery pimento berries and black pepper. If she’s not a fan of the fragrance, Mom can use the hard white snake-adorned case as a striking evening clutch. ($245, bergdorfgoodman.com)
