Valentine's Day is great and all, as far as Hallmark holidays go. But what's even better is the super-fun and hopefully tear-free holiday coined by Leslie Knope of Parks and Recreation: Galentine's Day.
Galentine's Day falls on February 13 and has become known in recent years as the national day to celebrate female friendship. It's really a lovely idea, because if romantic relationships deserve a day, well, heck, so do platonic ones.
Female friendships can be so important, too, and that's especially true after you become a parent. You really learn how valuable having a mom squad is. If you're thinking about celebrating the special day this year, here are a few awesome gift ideas for the squad.
1. An Amazing Set of Silk Pillowcases

2. Hair Products With the Hottest New Ingredient
Hair is one of our most beloved accessories, so it's important to treat it well. Dr. Barbara Sturm is known for her innovative and effective skin products, but she also makes a hair serum that works wonders. It contains hyaluronic acid, Japanese camellia extract, sunflower seed sprout extract, and more to help reduce irritation and breakage.
3. An Entire Self-Care Skin Gift Set Just for Moms

The line offers all kinds of wellness and beauty products like eye cream, body wash, and nourishing body lotion. And right now, they're on sale for 15% off!
