Best Gifts for Teens, $25-$50

Filed under: , by: Cosme

Wondering what to give a teen who loves makeup and hair products - someone so picky you're sure to disappoint? We've got the scoop on the best beauty gifts for teens that she won't sulk over.

1. Sephora's Ultimate Blockbuster Makeup Palette

Talk about value. She'll get a whopping three tiers of makeup, that's 150 shades, from Sephora, the hottest beauty retailer around. This palette includes six shades for cheeks, 84 for eyes, 60 for lips and a bevy of tools including every brush she could ever need. Considering even your basic drugstore brand makeup costs about $6 for 4 shades for the eye, this is considerable value. Sephora claims it's a $320 value. Need we say more? $48 for this gift for teens.

2. The Best of Bliss Holiday Gift Set

All in one package, she'll get a bevy of Bliss's bestsellers (how's that for a tongue twister?). This gift pack includes some of my all-time favorite Bliss goodies, which will turn her into a Bliss fan for life (not a bad thing): Lemon+sage soap, lemon+sage shower body butter, vanilla+bergamot bubbling bath+shower gel, vanilla+bergamot body buff, foot patrol, high intensity hand cream. $22-$55 for this gift for teens.

3. Hana Mini Flat Iron

Hana's new mini flat iron is so high quality, you'll want to steal it from your daughter, or better yet, get one for yourself. They come in blue and pink and an cute travel bag she'll love, but what makes the Hana Mini Flat Iron so cool is that it's only 5 inches long when collapsed, but it extends to 8 inches (the length of an average flat iron). The extension allows for easier use.

What's makes this flat iron high quality is the tourmaline ceramic plates, which is necessary for salon results.

Extras: The Hana Mini comes with a silver carrying pouch, a fold-out heat proof mat and a stylish tin case for storage at home. $64 for this gift for teens.

4. Essie Fall 2008 Six-Pack

If your teen is into nail colors, then this 6-pack is the perfect gift. She'll get all of Essie's hottest colors for the season. She'll get one bottle each of the following colors: Forever Young, Lacy Not Racy, Big Spender, No Boundaries, Swept Off My Feet and Tomboy No More. $45 for this gift for teens.

5. Smashbox Rapture Holiday 6-Piece Lip Gloss Collection

She's going to be impressed you knew about Smashbox. It's a popular, high quality lip gloss and this 6-piece set is perfect -- one gloss is too small a gift, but 6 incredible colors is just right. $29 for this gift for teens.

6. Too Faced The Bronzed & The Beautiful Bronzing Powder

If your teen likes to be tan, consider treating her to a super cool bronzing powder like Too Faced's "The Bronzed & The Beautiful" (was there ever a cooler name for bronzer than that?). What I like about this bronzer (aside from the cool packaging) is this is a collection of Too Faced's bestsellers. This means everyone's tried them already and liked them.

Kit includes Too Faced's Snow Bunny, a winter shade that brightens, illuminates, and highlights skin with a subtle bronze; Pink Leopard Bronzer, a skin-perfecting bronzer that instantly neutralizes, sculpts, and warms up a light-to-medium skintone; Sun Bunny, a classic bronzer that started a revolution. Also included is the Flatbuki brush. $35 for this gift for teens.

7. Juicy Couture Graffiti Gloves

She'll love the cheeky phrases on these graffiti gloves. They come in several different colors and can be worn fingerless. She'll love that the brand is Juicy. A great gift for teens.

8. Fresh Get SPA Sugar Body Scrub

When you're not sure what to get someone, you can't go wrong with bath products because every girl and woman I know likes to soak in the tub. Fresh makes wonderful body scrubs that are decadent at any age. These are perfect for the teen who likes to soak in the bath with candles. Add exfoliating gloves and a candle and create your own little gift bag. $23

9. Photo Personalized Cosmetic Bag and Clutch Purse

I love these personalized cosmetic bags. Send along the photo and this company will create a bag for your teen. Choose a photo of her beloved pet, her friends or her favorite school pictures.

10. Borghese Holiday Brush Set 7 Piece Set

Every beauty aficionado (for a woman, is it "aficionada"?) needs a good set of brushes and these brushes are a great starter kit for a teen.
