If there’s one thing I will always stand on, it’s this: moms do not need more clutter. We need things that make life easier, more comfortable, more organized, or just a tiny bit more joyful. And every single item on this list fits that description.
These aren’t random trinkets. These are products I use constantly. I am not exaggerating when I say that I get stopped everywhere asking, “Where did you get that?” Or I find myself unsolicited-sharing because I love something so much.
Whether you’re shopping for another mom, making your own wish list, or grabbing something practical that will truly get used, here are my absolute MVPs.
#1: The Hulken – The MVP of My Entire Life
The Hulken is my cart, my sidekick, my “please let me get everything from the house to the car in one trip” hero.
I use my two (large and medium) for absolutely everything: wheeling Amazon returns, hauling gear into hockey tournaments, lugging dirty laundry, packing all-star cheer items, carrying classroom donations, groceries, and so much more. It folds flat, holds a ton, and you will be asked about it constantly.. the the point people in the mall are asking me if its weird they take a picture of ot.
#2: The Best Face Sunscreen for Sun-Loving Moms
This face sunscreen feels amazing, works flawlessly under makeup, comes in tinted or untinted, and doesn’t cause breakouts. Zero greasiness, zero white cast, and perfect for moms who love sun and boat life.
#3: The Best Mom Pajamas
These pajamas are buttery soft, flattering on every body, come in tons of patterns and sizes, and are available in short sleeve, crop bottom, ribbed options, and more.
They last for years and are truly a gift that gets used daily.
#4: Custom BaubleBar Bracelets for Sports Moms
The perfect way to rep your child without the cheesy factor. Customize with team colors, jersey numbers, initials, or names. You will get asked about these constantly.
Favorite Pics to Stack:
Chunky Number Bracelet (Silver or Gold)
Dainty Wire Bracelet (names, numbers, teams, etc!)
#5: The World’s Greatest Bra
Tell your spouse or ask for a gift card. This bra is supportive, comfortable, wire-free, long-lasting, and universally flattering. A staple for every mom.
#6: Barefoot Dreams Blanket or Robe
A splurge, but absolutely worth it. The Barefoot Dreams blanket is the softest, coziest blanket that you will use constantly—on the couch, in bed, in the car, everywhere.
#7: Stasher Bags
Stasher bags are endlessly useful: snacks for kids, organizing car items, packing for tournaments, storing food or toiletries, and all the small things moms carry.
#8: A High-Quality Pair of Tweezers
Keep them in the car because somehow that’s where you notice everything that needs to be plucked. These tweezers grab even the tiniest hairs.
#9: The Best Neutral Nail Polish
This neutral polish looks amazing on every skin tone, every season, and every event. Healthy for your nails and a great tween or teen gift too.
#10: The Jolie Filtered Shower Head
The Jolie filtered shower head is a game changer for blondes and light brunettes. It reduces brassiness, improves skin clarity, softens water, and makes hair noticeably healthier. Comes in multiple finishes and instantly elevates your bathroom.
