Ideas for dd Christmas Presents

13 replies

Hello,
I'm in desperate need for some ideas for additional Christmas presents for dd. She's 16 and is getting a new phone and we went out shopping and she picked clothes, an urban decay naked palette and some benefit stuff. So far she knows everything that she has got, this makes me feel a tad guilty as I know she loves surprises but assures me that she doesn't mind. Does anyone have any ideas for little trinkets or extras that I could pick up, I've been so stressed out lately that my minds went blank Confused

Thanks :) x

Have a look in the Christmas topic. There was a thread in there about what to buy for a 16 year old.

My dd is the same and they've got similar presents..I've. Bought my dd a bobby brown makeup manual full of tips and tricks and some liz Earle and bare minerals some Mac and charlotte tilbury sets plus some new brushes. She's got the iPhone 6 and I've bought her a beats pill where she can play her music at boarding school. Does your dd like listening to music? Buy her a beats pill or a docking station. I've bought her benefit and urban decay pallets. It's hard at 16

MumIsASuperHero Tell me about it Xmas Confused She loves makeup and has quite a few bobby brown products so I'll definitely take a look at the book as it would make an excellent stocking filler. She's actually getting the iPhone 6 and she does love her music, so the beats pill sounds like a very good idea, I've seen them advertised on tv quite a lot, so I'll see what I can find when I'm out tomorrow.

I picked her up real techniques makeup brushes from boots yesterday and a miss dior perfume set which she ran out of recently, so hopefully they'll be much appreciated.

Thanks again for all the suggestions :)

My dd is addicted to makeup constantly going on and on about makeup,are you sure we haven't got the same daughters? Haha she really wanted a beats pill and the sound quality is amazing. Just hope the iphone6 doesn't bend she has the 5s now but that's much thicker
