What do 14 year old girls like?

[kingseven]

DS is spending Christmas with XH and has asked if I will send his Christmas Eve box. I want to include something inside for XH's SD who is 14. A little out of touch, any ideas??

Well, they're a variable bunch so, depending on the girl anything from a soft toy to a bottle of vodka and a packet of fags (not serious suggestions). Possibly all three.

Maybe make-up if you know she wears it, maybe a nice lip balm (quality brand to make it extra special) if you don't know. Make-up bag/pencil case. Stationery. Chocolate.

Need a bit more info like how girly she may be and a budget.

Something edible like chocolate would be the safe bet but I'm obviously assuming no allergies.

Not massively girly, very quiet and timid and a 'young' 14. I'm looking for stocking filler toys under £5. Lip balm sounds a good idea.

A book?

I know it seems like 14 year olds are the masters of contouring, selfies and dressin immaculately these days (sob!) I would’ve suggested a MAC voucher but if she’s a bit shy etc a good book to read on Xmas eve to help her feel sleepy would be lovely. If she is a young 14 then she is probably still really excited about Xmas day and finds it hard to get to sleep the night before.

I used to read a flipping tome to get me off to sleep at 14!

Makeup or cute stationery

Those egg shaped lip balms are popular - Eon. Oh, or hand sanitiser - spray or little bottles in overpowering artificial scents - you get them in the accessory section of teen-popular clothes shops. My scientific research tells me they're ALL obsessed with these.

A small flower press?

I have a 'young' 14yo DD.

In her stocking / as little presents I have:
Chocolate coins
Festive socks
NG kids magazine
Boots 3for2 Smelly mini highlighter pens
Boots 3for2 4 mini body sprays
Boots 3for2 silver packaged lucky dip lipstick/body glitter
Boots 3for2 3 lip glosses
Crocheted pokemon beanie hat (from craft fair)
2 toy wolves
unicorn head note holder crocodile clip (from flying tiger)

And a fluffy panda notebook from WHSmith.

Stationary, body sprays, coffee shop gift voucher, make up.

rose gold (pretty much anything rose gold!)
lip balm
cute stationery
slime
squishies
coffee (regularly meets friends at costa or McD's for a coffee so perhaps vouchers?)
..if she is like my current 14 yo.

My DD is 14.

Things I'm including this year:

Gloves (Primark cheapies)
Diary and nice pen
Hair mask
Boots 3 for 2 toiletries and makeup
Chocolate
Earrings

Mine is a mature 14 year old but doesn't wear make up apart from maybe eye liner.

I've bought

Eye liner
lip balm
Shower Gel and body lotion -Victoria Secret
Mango temptation spray - victoria Secret
Socks
Pants
Elf slippers
Pj's
chocolate
face packs
sweater
tights

Lush Snow Fairy is very popular and smells amazing, there's different sizes available for different prices.

I'd look in Boots for a beauty/make up gift - Nail polish, lip balm set, bath bombs.

Or they had some Harry Potter make up/beauty gifts if she's into that?

Oh was going to say some chocolate too!

Y y to hand sanitiser.
But WHY???

Lush bath bomb

Not really any suggestions but just wanted to say that I think it's kind of you to think of her having something to open as well. Hope you have a lovely Christmas.

All 14 year olds I know love cute cosy socks from Primark!
Post-it notes, diary, pen, lip balm - eos is popular but can be over the £5 although some are often sale price in boots, Zoella hand cream, lip balm or hand sanitiser.

LOL at anything rose gold. So very true.

I’m 33 but tempted to send this thread to DH for ideas for my stocking I would love everything suggested especially the “anything rose gold”

Unless she has excema, Lush bath bombs and chocolate (my dd loves Hotel du Chocolate). Or fingerless gloves, a wallet, metallic coloured sharpies, Exploding Kittens, a voucher of some kind a pretty diary from Paperchase.

Sorry - just saw £5 limit. I think some of those meet that criteria

Anything from Lush, hotel chocolate and victoria secret pink
