What's a generous spa gift for Mum on a special occasion — is the Special Occasion Spa & Soothing Set for Mums a good choice?
Yes, it's a full at-home spa for Mum's special day. It brings two lavender bath bombs and a bubble bath, a body wash, a lavender body oil, an organic flaxseed and lavender eye pillow, and a jar of our blueberry jam with a hint of lavender. Mini dried lavender flowers and a bookmark finish it off.

This spa set brings together lavender oil we distil and blueberries we grow on our family farm in Newstead, Waikato. The bath bombs, bubble bath, body wash and body oil all carry our own lavender oil, and the jam pairs our blueberries with a hint of culinary 'Pacific Blue' lavender.

How does Mum use this lavender spa gift set?
Run a bath with a bath bomb or a capful of bubble bath and soak for 15–20 minutes, using the body wash as she goes. Afterwards, massage the body oil onto damp skin and rest the eye pillow over closed eyes. The jam is a treat for breakfast the next morning.
Does this lavender spa gift set for mum contain nuts, coconut, beeswax or milk?
The Lavender Body Oil contains apricot kernel and argan oils, the Lavender Body Wash and Bubble Bath contain macadamia oil and coconut oil, and the bath bombs contain coconut oil and cosmetic colours. None of the items contain beeswax or milk. Full ingredient lists are on each product's own page.
Where does the lavender in this gift set come from?
The body oil, body wash, bubble bath and bath bombs are made with Super Lavandin (Lavandula × intermedia 'Super') essential oil grown and steam-distilled on our family farm in Newstead, Waikato. The eye pillow is filled with organic flaxseed and dried lavender buds from our own fields, where the dried flowers are grown too. The jam uses blueberries grown on our farm and a hint of our culinary English lavender.
