Hafa Adai!
Time flies—it’s already May! In Guam, May marks the start of summer vacation
for kids and the season of school graduations. But one global celebration this
month is, of course, Mother’s Day! As early as April, stores across the island start
displaying all kinds of items under the theme of “Mother’s Day Gift Ideas.”
In this article, we’re sharing some Mother’s Day gift ideas you can find right here in Guam. We visited three shops that are convenient for tourists to access and picked out some lovely gift options!
At Kmart, you’ll find affordable, practical beauty items that also make thoughtful gifts.
How about a slightly more luxurious version of your mom’s favorite beauty brand? These shampoos come in beautifully designed bottles, smell amazing, and can instantly lift her mood whenever she steps into the bathroom.
Next up are Italian-made shower gels. The two in the front are vegan-friendly, offering peace of mind for anyone who prefers clean beauty options. All of them have wonderful fragrances that promote relaxation. The pink one in the back contains Vitamin E, known for its antioxidant properties—something moms are sure to appreciate.
These are shower steamers! To use, close the shower curtain, run hot water to fill the space with steam, then open the lid and place the steamer on a flat surface. The relaxing aroma combined with the steam is a perfect way to unwind both body and mind.
Don’t forget about Guam-made beauty products! The Kingfisher Noni brand offers skincare made from nutrient-rich noni. From oils and soaps to lip balms and even noni tea, these products are packed with health benefits and make great gifts and souvenirs.
Next up is JP Superstore, known for its stylish product selection. This time, we’re highlighting eco-friendly bags and shopping totes.
With reusable bags now a must-have for shopping, these multifunctional bags are a standout. This one transforms from a shoulder bag into a backpack—super handy when your hands are full, riding a bike, or carrying heavy loads. Plus, it folds up compactly when not in use. A great option for a casual, low-pressure gift.
These cotton tote bags are thin and lightweight, yet very durable and roomy. The simple design makes them perfect for everyday use, especially when paired with the matching pouch!
This beautifully color-blocked bag is not only eye-catching but also made from sturdy nylon. With a variety of pockets in different sizes, it’s both functional and spacious. Available in three colors, it’s ideal for picnics or beach days—a gift that will be loved!
Lastly, we visited Macy’s, the iconic American department store located in Micronesia Mall.
Here, you’ll find famous American brands like COACH, Ralph Lauren, Calvin Klein, and DKNY at great prices. From clothing and bags to shoes and accessories, there’s a wide variety to choose from. Small handbags and wallets start around $100, and you’re sure to find a beautiful piece within a $100–$300 budget.
With frequent sales, you might score an even better deal on these popular brands—so keep an eye out!
Whether it's your beloved mom, the mom you rely on every day, or the mom you wish to see healthy and happy for many years to come—this year, consider finding her a special gift right here in Guam.
