Anyone who forgot to get their mum a gift for Mother's Day and finds themselves in need of inspiration may benefit from advice from the Irish Times.

It suggests a few gifts to buy that are sure to please any mother, when coupled with the customary bunch of roses.

Roses are the principal ingredient of the natural beauty product that the publication recommends to sooth mum's skin.

Weeda's Wild Rose Creamy Body Wash is a skin-nourishing organic musk rose oil, rich in essential fatty acids designed to combat dry or stressed skin. Its all natural ingredients mean it is also suitable for vegans.

The Rosehip oil is "blended to perfection", according to the natural beauty manufacturer, with organic essential oil of Damask Rose providing the scent.

Other ways to make it up to mum may be to take her out to lunch as "what mums really, really love is time with you – catching up, reminiscing or just hanging out together", the Irish Times says.
