Life as a new mom is hard as it is. Factor in a pandemic, spending months indoors, and having to wear a face mask to do basic things like head to doctor appointments and grocery store run, and it's completely understandable if your new mom friends are ready to pull their hair out. Now is the perfect time to show them just how solid of a support system they have in you with a gift to help ease their day-to-day challenges.

While they may not be dealing with the woes or homeschooling just yet, learning the ins-and-outs of caring for a new baby, all while trying to maintain some semblance of a self-care routine is a hell of a lot of work. Show them some love with these helpful items that'll make life as a new mom a lot more comfortable.

Between the pregnancy acne and chafing from nursing, dealing with pre- and post-baby skin can feel like it's on a wild roller coaster ride. Help your mom friends and family keep their skin soft, soothed, and chap-free with the help of Mutha Body Butter, a whipped blend of moisturizing shea, cocoa, and mango butters. Or for those areas that need a bit more love, Lano's Golden Dry Skin Salve is a multi-purpose balm that heals cracked, lips, hands, and heels.

And with its mousse-like texture and cocoa butter and jojoba oil-laced formula, the Allure Best of Beauty-winning Ever Lavish Ultra Rich Body Butter is an even more luxurious moisturizing gift to give.

The Conscious Coconut Home Bath Bundle comes with a jar of organic coconut oil and a dry brushing tool to exfoliate rough skin. New moms in your life who are already familiar with the fan-favorite Bio-Oil original formula will likely be into the brand's newest launch, the Bio-Oil Dry Skin Gel. Thirty years after the launch of its first product, Bio-Oil introduced a gel-to-oil formula with glycerin and urea to help moisturize intensely dry skin. It's a perfect addition to any unpredictable, post-pregnancy skin-care routine.

The Burt's Bees Tips and Toes Kit Gift Set was made especially for dry extremities. The six-piece set has a hand cream, foot cream, multi-purpose salve, cuticle cream, lip balm, and travel-size hand cream all with skin-nourishers like sweet almond oil and vitamin E.
