Mother’s Day is just around the corner, and there’s truly nothing we love more than celebrating a famous matriarch like Tina Knowles. The woman who brought us Beyoncé and Solange Knowles also happens to be a queen in her own right, and her Ulta Beauty Mother’s Day wishlist shows her immaculate style.
From next-level hair products to incredible makeup, Tina Knowles’ Ulta Beauty Mother’s Day wishlist seriously has it all. And considering Knowles was previously a makeup artist, and even went on to open her own hair salon, we fully trust her judgement for Mother’s Day gifts. So treat mom to 18 of her top picks, a radical hair repair mask, light yet long-wearing foundation and more.
Makeup Bag Must-Haves
As a former makeup artist, Knowles has a good idea of quality makeup. Grab her favorite makeup bag staples for mom (and maybe for yourself, too!).
1. Glowy Complexion: Lightweight foundation can be hard to come by, but Nars’ is both light-weight and buildable. That way mom can put her face on without worrying about anything caking or smudging, and be confident it’ll last as long as she needs.
2. Airbrush Your Face: Help mom get rid of any dark circles and imperfections with Hourglass Vanish Airbrush Concealer. It also comes in 32 shades, which makes color-matching so much easier.
3. Eye-Catching: It’s no wonder Charlotte Tilbury’s Matte & Metallic Double-Headed Eyeliner is so popular. This duo pencil is long-wear, waterproof and comes in five incredible shades.
4. Long Lashes: Anastasia Beverly Hills’ volumizing mascara sculpts and lengthens your lashes, so mom will feel like she’s gotten a full-on makeover! It’s also clump resistant, so she won’t have to worry about any makeup mishaps.
5. Better Brows: Help mom style her brows to perfection with a high-quality brow pencil. It comes in three shades and promises a flexible hold formula, meaning it’ll last all day.
6. Long-Wear Lipstick: Choose between 28 amazing shades, with Maybelline’s Matte Liquid Lipstick. Its matte finish and 16 hours of wear makes for a beauty bag must-have.
7. All-Day Shades: Anastasia Beverly Hills’ Soft Glam Eye Shadow Palette has everything from daytime to nighttime shades. It’s all easy to blend, too, so you can choose multiple colors at once.
Skincare Products Keeping Knowles Youthful
Give mom the gift of youth with totally irreplaceable skincare products.
1. Eye Love It: If you’ve tried under-eye patches, you understand the hype. They contain hyaluronic acid which not only fights dark circles, but also erases fine lines that can form with age.
2. Dew It Yourself: Tatcha’s The Dewy Serum contains amino acids, hyaluronic acid and collagen, a recipe for young-looking skin. It smells sweet and natural, so mom will want to use it daily for that reason alone.
3. Defying Time: Of course Knowles is a fan of hyaluronic acid and peptide serum. It has everything mom needs to keep things smooth and ageless, no matter her age.
4. Full Body Smooth: Help mom keep things smooth with a full-body moisturizer. It promises three-day hydration even through showers, just to illustrate just how strong it is.
Hair Products Knowles Swears By
Along with the rest of the world, Knowles happens to be one of her daughters’ biggest cheerleaders. So it comes as no surprise that all the haircare products on her list come from Beyoncé’s haircare brand, Céred.
1. Shine On: Described as “hair repair in a jar,” the treatment mask has undergone clinical testing to improve damage, strengthen those strands and increase shine.
2. Healthy Roots: Hair health starts at the scalp, which is why the brand’s clarifying shampoo and scrub is a shower time staple. It contains exfoliants, fermented purple willow bark and tea tree oil for a serious deep clean.
3. Moisture Magic: The Hydration Hero Kit is a three-step kit promising healthy hair for all. Whether mom’s been styling with heat, or simply forgot to deep condition, it has the revitalizing ingredients her hair needs.
4. Does It All: A good hairbrush can be hard to find — and Céred’s Vented Paddle Brush is great for blow-drying, detangling and everyday brushing.
5. Revitalize: Everyone knows that deep conditioner is the secret to healthy hair. Containing a complex natural oil blend and shea butter, mom’s ‘do will be ten times more manageable after just one use.
6. Knot Too Tough: Making your way through serious knots can cause major breakage, but a rake comb is specifically designed for detangling without hair damage.
7. Instant Life: Bring life back to mom’s hair in seconds with nourishing hair oil. It contains all of the good stuff and none of the bad, bringing moisture back to her locks as well as some much-needed barrier protection.
