DD turning 18. What do your teenage DDs love?

My dd isn't being particularly helpful about what she'd like for her birthday in six weeks.

So I thought I'd get a feel for what other older teenage girls were into?

My dd loves cosmetics. Clothes. The usual. I will get her some of that kind of thing. But still casting about for ideas.....

My DD turned 18 last year and I made her a photobook filled with photos from her birth right up to her at summer festivals with her friends. She loved it, took it to Uni with her and said she looks at the book when she feels homesick

Ariana Grande’s REM cosmetics are on my DD’s birthday list. 15% off online at Boots atm.

Oh, the mascara is better than the Charlotte Tilbury one.

I bought my daughter a watch & we had a weekend away in Prague together.

We did a spa night away for my dds 18th. She loved it. Had Prosecco in a bucket waiting for her, balloons, a happy birthday dessert and they'd even shaped the towels like a cake.

Football and beer!

sorry, not much help!

Depends on your budget really!

A fancy handbag, nice watch or piece of jewellery?

Or clothes, makeup, a night away?

Tickets to a concert?
