Celebrate First-Time Moms This Mother’s Day With These One-of-a-Kind Gifts
To all the mothers worldwide, know you’re still that girl.
As we celebrate Mother’s Day, let’s remember to embrace all first-time moms joining in on the celebration. Let’s do some leg work for the women who bear the adults of our future and shower them with luxurious gifts created by Black-owned entrepreneurs that will keep them feeling loved and appreciated year-round.
This Woman’s Work Soy Candle
Set the morning mood indoors with a lovely scented gift.
This Woman’s Work Candle is Frères Branchiaux’s ode to women everywhere, “especially to hard-working moms who give their all to make the world a better place for all of us,” the company’s three founders said. The brothers, Collin, Ryan, and Austin Gill, founded the candle company to give back. That includes donating 10 percent of profits to homeless shelters.
The candle is a vegan wax blend with hints of apple, peach, vanilla, amber, jasmine, and sandalwood, made to honor the dedication, hard work, compassion, and love mothers spread to all.

Lita by Ciara is the perfect fashion house to grab a gift that will make any mom feel sexy and confident. As a mom herself, Ciara Wilson knows a thing or two about what’s flattering and comfortable, especially for new mothers.
Surprise mom with almost anything. From a classic jumpsuit to a pair of fashionable sneakers, whatever sustainable clothing you gift her from the Lita collection will make her look good and feel even better.

Going out is always fun. However, staying in is where the party’s at for some first-time mothers, and the gift of pampering is always special. Buttah Skin products by Dorion Renaud will surely make moms with melanin-rich skin tones smile this year. Renaud founded his skincare brand in 2018, with products targeting dryness, discoloration, oiliness, and blemishes and promising a radiant glow.
“I created Buttah from the spirit of my heritage,” Renaud said on the company’s website. It’s my goal to enrich your melanin, confidence, and soul with a lil’ Buttah baby.”
