What do you give to the person who deserves the world? Holiday shopping for moms presents a unique problem in that nothing ever seems good enough. To make matters worse, many moms insist they don't need any gifts and simply just want to spend time together as a family. (That's a lie.

Ranging in price from $28 to $525, this gift guide includes a pampering haircare products, a techy matcha maker, the requisite pajama set, and tomato hand soap for aspiring gardeners.

And while many of them are fantastic, it can be overwhelming.

We like this offering from Ceremonia because it helps nourish hair during the dry winter season, and it comes with a handy spa headband. Plus, it might introduce the mom in your life to the great Latina-owned haircare brand, if she isn't already familiar.

Best Sentimental Gift For Moms Letterfest House Pencil Sketch ($45) This is the rare sentimental gift that is thoughtful without being too time-intensive for the giver.

Letterfest essentially turns a home photo, provided by its customer, into a timeless illustrated print. But be warned: this one might produce a tear or two. If that's your aim, this is the gift.

Editor Quote: "I'm really enjoying this addition to my kitchen. Better yet, my mind is at ease knowing I can always remove (or swap out) the shade if my preferences change or when I inevitably move out." — Kelsey Garcia, associate content director, Balance Best Candle Gift For Moms Diptyque Tubereuse Scented Candle ($45-$74) As I'm sure you've noticed, dear reader, no gift guide is complete without a candle.

And though everyone's got their favorite, for many, Diptyque remains the gold standard. You really can't go wrong with this one, and while the Baies candle may be a bestseller, we'd like to make a case for this romantic tuberose scent. Best Gift For the Matcha-Drinking Mom Cuzen Matcha Maker Starter Kit ($299) If matcha is a crucial part of your mom's morning routine, consider splurging on this matcha maker kit.

Cuzen's set includes four tea packets and, of course, the real star: a machine that handles the matcha process from start to finish. Plus, it looks nice out on the kitchen counter. A win-win.

Best Travel Gift For Moms Monos Metro Toiletry Case ($89, originally $95) For the traveling mom, this Monos toiletry case is a lovely addition to her baggage collection. Speaking from personal experience, the case is more spacious than it looks. And speaking of looks, it's beautiful, too.

We especially like this cactus green shade from the brand's collaboration with Sincerely Jules. Best Hosting Gift For Moms Misette Embroidered Linen Placemats ($220) For the mom who loves to host, might we recommend Misette's appealing placemats? Featuring a trendy squiggle design and linen material, these definitely aren't the plastic placemats you might've grown up. And for a tip: we especially like the look of these when layered over a contrasting, colorful tablecloth.

23 Sleep Products That Actually Work Best Relaxing Gift For Moms Yellow Leaf Signature Hammock ($179, originally $229) When you really think about it, there are fewer things in life more relaxing than a hammock.

For an added cost, you can also buy a stand so you don't even have to worry about installation.

Best Loungewear Gift For Moms Leset Kyoto Carpenter Pant ($280) Loungewear isn't going anywhere anytime soon, and so, for the mom who detests hard pants, we suggest this chic alternative. Leset does basics really well, and this trouser is always selling out. Plus, this brown shade is lovely for fall and winter.

(For more daring moms, however, we recommend taking a look at the bright blue option.) Best Fashion Splurge Gift For Moms Jenni Kayne Cooper Cardigan ($525) We know, we know: it's a $500 cardigan. But mom wants the internet-famous Jenni Kayne cardigan even if she hasn't vocalized yet.

Maybe consider banding together and splitting the cost with siblings or other family members? It's a definite splurge, but we're willing to bet the cost per wear will balance it all out in no time. Best Planning Gift For Moms Hearth Display ($499, originally $699) This one's for the organized mom who manages to keep the entire family running according to schedule. Help alleviate some of that pressure and stress with this Hearth Display, a cool touchscreen that keeps routines, reminders, and chores in one centralized place.
