Now that both my children are teenagers, I’ve found buying gifts for my daughter quite easy. It helps that I regularly get links sent to me from her telling me what she wants. But she’s also quite a typical young teenage girl who likes make-up, skincare and fragrance, so it’s not hard to buy her things. Are you struggling to buy small gifts for this age range? Here are 6 stocking fillers I bought my teenage daughter for Christmas 2024.
Collection Lasting Perfection Sheer Loose Powder
My daughter asked for setting powder, I bought her Collection Lasting Perfection Sheer Loose Powder in Matt. This can be applied under, over make-up or used on its own to make the skin look brighter, less shiny and helps foundation last longer and stay in tact. I bought two versions just to be on the safe side. One transparent, the other translucent. I’m sure she will have fun experimenting on her own with these because I don’t have a clue about make-up I just pay for it! These cost £3.99 each from Boots, but at the time of purchasing they had a third off the price.
MUA Hydra Juice Lip Balm Cherry Kiss
Who doesn’t love a lip balm, especially a teenage girl! My daughter loves using lip glosses and I thought MUA Hydra Juice Lip Balm in Cherry Kiss was the perfect balance of subtle colour, hydration and hopefully a look of gloss on the lips. Looks cute, will suit my daughter’s skin tone and super affordable at £2.50 from Superdrug.
La Roche Posay’s Purifying Foaming Gel
While on holiday, I bought my daughter a small version of La Roche Posay’s Purifying Foaming Gel. She says she’s noticed her skin is less spotty and smoother. This range is ideal for those with sensitive skin (although closer inspection I’m annoyed it has fragrance in it!), easy and quick to use and designed to help oily, blemish prone skin. Available in different sizes. For the 400ml size I paid £18.00 (from Boots when on promotion), but usual price is £24.00. Definitely a considered purchase, but will last a good number of months.
Avene’s Thermal Spring Water
Are facial mists actually beneficially except for very hot and sweaty days? I have no idea. But my daughter likes them and I liked the idea of this one as it literally is spring water in a can. No other skincare ingredients her young skin doesn’t need and I can imagine very refreshing to use too. Bought from Superdrug when it was under £4.00 for 50ml.
Simple Sheet Masks
Simple is a brand that myself and my daughter use. She loves sheet skincare masks and loves Simple’s masks especially. It made sense to buy them when they were on offer for only £1.00 at Boots. Hydrating, cooling, pampering and perfect for sensitive skin.
Primark’s PS High Gloss Lip Gloss
The make-up in Primark is always affordable in price. For £1.50 this clear, glossy lip gloss was something I thought my daughter would like and use. If a teen likes to use lip glosses it’s a must to have a clear one in their collection.
Despite the La Roche Posey cleanser, I thought these products were very affordable and budget friendly. All easy to use and ideal for teenagers.
