What make up for 16yo birthday present?

Please help! I want to buy DN a make up selection box for her birthday but don't want to get the wrong brand! She likes make up but isn't girly, she uses social media a fair bit but AFAIK isn't into the full on contouring trend, she just likes making herself pretty (despite being gorgeous without any help) and trying out new stuff. A big box would go down better than lots of money going on a high end single item. Thank you! Smile

benefit would be my choice, they do a lot of sets and the make up is good imo

What's your budget?

Also, is she going to take care of it or throw it in a bag and smash it do you think?

I was going to say the urban decay book of shadows for a teenager, or any of their stuff really

I'd buy the Naked Smokey palette. It will go down well with a 16 year old.

If not UD what about MAC?
Also whilst the UD palettes are lovely the MUA dupes are pretty reasonable and good quality
