What do I buy my DD for her 16th birthday? I'm stumped.

A Birchbox or Glossybox subscription would be nice. I have had both, each month you get sent various beauty items. This months Glossybox I had some excellent products including Molton Brown & Huda Beauty.

Mine's 16 next month. Her list comprises:

Bracelet
Doc Martens
Matcha tea and accessories
Guitar strap
Urban Outfitters vouchers
Perfume
Mac lipstick
Essie Nail Polish

I'm also considering/have bought:

Wireless headphones (so she doesn't keep pinching mine!)
Money box (she wants to do a year out before uni in Japan so have bought her a ceramic one covered in cherry blossom that can only be opened with a hammer!)
Scented candle (probably a small Woodwick)
Phone case
Make up bag
Couple of books
Chocolates
Bath bombs

And this personalised star map of when she was born

She's not mentioned it recently but has talked about getting one for a couple of years.

Thank you both some lovely ideas, she has AirPods or I'd of bought them. She has pretty much everything.
We have a glossy box already. That was last years gift.

We’re getting my son a MacBook.
He’s more gadgetty so most of the things he wants are computer/technology based.

Mine has earbuds but she still keeps pinching my over ear headphones!
