present for a 15 year old girl

My sister and her family are coming to the UK for Christmas. I haven't seen them for 3 years so very excited. I have presents sorted for all of them apart from 15 year old niece. I don't want to give her vouchers as I send her money every year and this time I can see her opening something. But what? I don't know what her taste in clothes is (or her size!) so am ruling that out. Whatever I buy she's got to take back in her suitcase so that rules out anything too large or breakable. Budget is £30 - £40.

Any ideas?

15yo DD and her friends are mad about MAC make up, I am sure you would find something that would fit the budget and suitcase requirements as it is pretty expensive compared to my Max Factor Grin

My 15 yo dd loves anything from Lush...bath bombs particularly.

If she's quite 'cool', Urban Outfitters have nice gifts, and lots of nice little gift type books.

Benefit make up has funky packaging and would be small to take home.

Which country is she coming from? Not sure if that might make a difference if she can access all the normal Hight st stores.

The Ted Baker set, Real tech makeup,brushes, sleek makeup, glam glow set, would all go down well but better the check with her mum and dad to see if she would like any?

Ask her mum/dad. I always e-mail the parents for ideas for my nieces and nephews.

Thanks for the suggestions. She lives in Australia and I know they don't have some high street shops there that we have. I don't know Urban Outfitters as there isn't one near me but I'll look online.

My bil says everything is expensive in Australia so make up is a good option, styles of clothing seem to be a bit different based on my nieces so might be wise to avoid.

If your going for make up id agree with mac thats the best in my eyes,id also agree with lush snow fairy items are amazing and only out at christmas x

EmmaGrundyForPM · 21/11/2018 18:53

Morphe make up eye palettes seem to be very popular with teen dd and her mates. Real Techniques brushes too. Oh and Urban Decay - there are discounted codes on UD make up palettes in the other thread.
A Chillys bottle - can keep drinks hot while she's here then her water cold for 24 hours when she's back in Oz!
Clothes are apparently very expensive so you might want to look in teen friendly shops - Bew alook, Primark, Top Shop etc
Watch
Jewellery

I have 2 morphe eye palettes they are a nice gift if she is into eye shadows.i got mine at selfridges.
Also spectrum make up brushes are amazing they make nice gifts x
