What's cool make up wise for 16 year olds?

[RabitWhole]

I'm looking to get some make up palettes for a 16 year old I know, what's cool at the moment? Would like to surprise her so don't want to ask her and I think her mum would be as clueless as me!

Likely to buy from Cult Beauty or Feel Unique but there are so many on there I don't know what to go for (I am a make up junky myself but the stuff I buy wouldn't interest her as I'm 20 years older!)

Environmental impact is important to my teens. And they love a good eyeliner

Glossier, Morphe, Huda spring to mind!

Benefit, morphe

It was Urban Decay a couple of years ago, not sure now.

It depends on how much money you want to spend. Morphe, too faced, mac, huda, glosdier etc are not cheap. Revolution beauty is very reasonable and there is a very wide range of stuff.

What do you mean by “makeup palettes”? Eyeshadow? Highlighters?

Sigma and viseart

Sorry should have specified eye shadow mainly

Thanks to the posters who suggested Anastasia and Huda, I have some of those myself but they are a bit more than I would want to spend, I was thinking more of the £15-£20 range but don't want to end up with something 'cheap' if you get my meaning, I'd like good value for money with good pigmentation etc

I have bought this for my daughter.

Boots do £10 Tuesdays, and sometimes include palettes - think they have been including branded names. Also might be worth keeping an eye out for black Friday deals - depending on when you need to buy for.

Looks like the urban decay on offer today are out of stick. There are some nice hula ones and some mac ones for £26-£27, but they may be a little over budget. Fenty is also a good brand.

I use high end eye shadow palettes, but Revolution eye shadow palettes (Superdrug) are supposed to have great colour pay off! I’ve seen women use them on YouTube.

Revolution eye shadow palettes are incredible and super affordable

• makeup Revolution I meant!

If you want more budget, Revolution or Sleek. And as someone else said, some Boots Tuesday deals are really good.

Great thanks I will have a look!

DD17 wouldn’t thank me for revolution. Could be worth waiting for Black Friday deals. This is a good buy for everyday looks.

From age 13 + my dsis only used Mac or Benefit. So that was our go to for her

If my 16 year old is anything to go by just get a 10 gallon pot of black eyeliner!
She likes KVD or benefit
