BB creams are the new darlings of the beauty world for good reason: They are as great at multi-tasking as new moms are. This one little product is a tinted moisturizer, skin care miracle worker, and sunscreen all wrapped in one. And it's just one product your sleep-deprived giftee needs to use to look fresh-faced in an instant. Plus, this one is just spendy enough that she probably wouldn't splurge on it for herself.

This trio of candles
Nothing inspires relaxation like lighting a candle, and Diptyque candles are the most luxurious ones on the market. And although a new mom's peaceful moments may be few and far between, at least they can be that much sweeter with this trio of delectable-smelling candles.
You've almost finished all your holiday shopping, but there's just one person left on your list and you have absolutely no idea what to get her: the new mom. And she can be a tricky giftee. Get her that cute pair of baby booties and she'll be bummed you didn't get something for her. Buy her a box of really nice bath salts and it'll just remind her of how she never has time to take baths these days.
And yes, we know it's tempting to phone it in and just get her a Starbucks gift card, but it's so much more fun to give your favorite new mom something that'll really wow her. Luckily, we've come up with five picks that are perfect for a new mom.
