High end modern skincare/make up

I’d like to buy DD1 (young adult) some really lovely skincare and make up but I suspect all the brands I like are a bit old ladyish. Any suggestions?

DD is 21 and likes Milk, Kosas, Ilia & Laura Mercier make up. Her skincare is functionality over style (dry, acne prone skin) - Bioderma micellar water + face wash, Avene Cicalfate moisturiser & Paula’s Choice BHA toner. Loves Ultra Violette Future Fluid SPF and tends to wear it as a base layer most days instead of foundation/tinted moisturiser.

If you're not confident on her favorite brands, you could keep an eye on this thread for recommendations of beauty edits and boxes. Around Black Friday especially there are likely to be some good ones released. I've discovered so many great products by shopping this way and they're usually great value for money.

Drunk elephant, Summer Friday and any Korean skincare are popular.

if she likes make up I would suggest Dior lipstick or anything from Chanel.

Sorry, should have also said - Rare beauty make up is lovely and Fenty is popular.
