Treat mom at Lavender Heart
This French-style apothecary carries something for her and you
By Natalie Bow

This quintessentially French apothecary, with its narrow aisles brimming with soaps, candles, lotions and baubles in fantastic scents of lilac, gardenia and of course, lavender, is the perfect shopping spot for Mother's Day gifts. It is so authentically Parisian that the very French owners of nearby bistro Saint-Germain regularly stop in to replenish their lavender stash.
And don't let it be all about Mom - grab yourself a gift as well. For a little DIY smoothing, try the Tadé Pumice Stone ($6.95). A staple in Turkish baths and a godsend for those who prefer to roam barefoot, the Tadé Pumice Stone is a pampering addition to your post-shower regimen. When used on damp skin, the volcanic stone smoothes calluses to post-pedicure levels, giving you silky smooth feet.
Mom would be so proud.
