Lush - a bit passe?

Good present for a 14 year old girl? Or not the thing anymore? Thanks. Cant' get her make-up / Boots voucher as my sister (another aunt) is getting that.

Or is she in fact also too old?

I think Lush still makes a good present but would say it depends if she's very into makeup or not. If she is then she may prefer better branded stuff (like MAC). That said the cleansing balm is very good for taking off makeup though.

If not then a Lush basket would make a nice gift.

My friends 14 yr old has just said Lush is still big with her friends .

Lush is fine. Also Soap and Glory.

I would recommend Bomb cosmetics - much cheaper than Lush and available via Amazon Prime at good prices

Lush still is expensive enough to be a nice gift. Heck I’d like some

Lush still very popular with the resident 14yo girl in this house.

My DD (14) loves Lush!

FormerlyFrikadela01 · 16/12/2017 00:53

If 14 is potentially too old for lush then I'm friggin ancient Grin

I'm sure she'll love some lush.

MargotLovedTom1 · 16/12/2017 00:56

Body Shop also seems to be popular with my young teenager and her mates. Memories of my teenage self spending Saturday job money on Dewberry and White Musk perfume Grin. Some things never change.....

Maybe you could get her a shopping centre gift card so she has an array of shops to chose? Eg a Westfield gift card

I’m sure she’ll enjoy lush but she’ll probably be drawn into the bath bombs, which won’t last long really. Also their products are a bit gimmicky on the whole (I have literally tried all of their main line) but I guess a 14yo wouldn’t mind

Can’t go wrong with a topshop/clothing store voucher

I'm 48 and get Lush every xmas. Grin

Thesecondtoast · 16/12/2017 02:48

Boots have a massive soap and glory set for £30, all sorts of toiletries, a mascara and what I am told is a really good lip gloss (sexy mother pucker) I might be hinting heavily for this myself

Another Lush fan here! I would love some Lush for Xmas.
