She knows every shortcut, every good coffee spot, every local gem worth knowing. She’s the one who holds it all together — and if we’re being honest, she probably hasn’t done something just for herself in a while.

This Mother’s Day, we put together a gift guide that feels as good as Marquette itself: local, considered, and genuinely useful. We’ve included a few of our favorite neighbors on Washington Street and around town, because the best gifts often come from the people who know your community best.

And of course — we saved the best for last.

Lighten Her Load

The most luxurious thing you can give a busy mom isn’t always something she can hold in her hands. It’s quality time (with herself and her family!)

1. Meal Prep from MQT Nutrition. Ready-made, nourishing meals that mean she doesn’t have to think about dinner. A gift that genuinely reduces the mental load.
2. A private session at Rooted Pilates Studio is the kind of gift she wouldn’t buy for herself — she’ll get dedicated instruction rooted in intention to connect mind and body, and she’ll thank you for over and over again.
3. Her next great read is waiting for her at any of Marquette’s wonderful independent bookshops! Read My Lips on Washington Street, Snowbound on Third or Bromley’s on Third all have great selections for every book lover.
4. A morning latte or midday lunch at Trenary Toast Cafe is the perfect place for some quality time with Mom. If she’s got a real sweet tooth, a box of chocolates from Donckers or frozen yogurt from Yoophoria would be the cherry on top.

Gift a Luxury Self Care Experience at Lakeshore Skin + Body in Marquette, MI

We’ve been caring for women in the Upper Peninsula since 2009. In that time, we’ve come to understand something: the treatments our clients love most are often the ones they wouldn’t have booked for themselves. They needed someone else to say, you deserve this.

That’s what a great gift card does. It encourages someone to book an experience for themselves and we’ve got two options for Mother’s Day that pair beautifully with fresh flowers from Forsberg’s or a hand poured candle from 906 & Co.

Best gift fo a first experience at a Medspa (or a familiar favorite!)

Lakeshore Spring Facial Gift Card | $20 instant savings

She’ll get to choose from three of our most beloved facial treatments: Classic HydraFacial, DiamondGlow or Glo2 Facial — each one deeply restorative, personally tailored, and genuinely enjoyable. This gift card has a $179 value but is specially priced at $159 through Mother’s Day and can be redeemed at her convenience.

Available in-store and online.

Best gift for the one who truly deserves a splurge

Mother’s Day Promotional Gift Card | $50 bonus included

Purchase $200, and we add a $50 bonus — giving her $250 to spend on anything she chooses. No strings. No expiration. Just a meaningful amount of value she can save, spend, or pair with any treatment we offer. This is the gift that says, without any hesitation: you deserve it.

You pay $200, she receives $250. It’s a win-win!

Everything she needs, beautifully packaged. SPF-powered, clinically tested, and ready to gift in a travel pouch. A complete mineral based beauty routine she will be absolutely obsessed with!

A beautiful starting point. The essentials — prep, protect, reset — in one affordable, giftable bundle. An easy yes for anyone who’s been curious about clinical skincare and perfect for the traveling woman!

Please note: Products are available at our Marquette location (153 W. Washington Street, Lower Level) while supplies last. We’d recommend calling ahead to confirm: 906-273-0512. Gift cards are available in-store or online anytime — no need to plan ahead.

However you choose to celebrate her, we hope it’s generous and unhurried. The Upper Peninsula has always had a way of doing things a little more personally — and that’s exactly the spirit we try to bring to every appointment.

From all of us at Lakeshore Skin + Body, happy Mother’s Day to every woman who holds it all together.
