Best skin or haircare gift for young teenager

7 replies

Want to get some skincare and/or haircare as a gift for a young teenager (Y7) who is just starting to be interested in this type of thing.

So far am considering Liz Earle, any other good recommendations?

There is nothing more insulting for a teenager to get skin care for Christmas no matter what the brand or how expensive.

Totally disagree with above if the teen in question is interested it’s a great gift.

What else is the teen into? There are loads of great eco friendly brands if they like that sort of thing. Maybe some Japanese or Korean brands if they like other stuff like that? For that age I think elf would be good for skincare or make up (they do good dupes so other brands can be found easily). Or maybe a subscription box so they can try loads of brands?

They asked for either skincare or haircare themselves.

Thanks @Kjr33 I will have a look at those ideas, eco friendly is a good idea.

They are cusp of teen/tween and not sure the parents would appreciate make up gifts yet, but will have a look to see if any skincare only subscription boxes, that’s a great idea.

Oh for eco friendly and a young teen have a look at selfless by hyram it’s a collaboration between a skincare influencer (hyram) and the inky list.

Inky List is good as if they like it, it's affordable moving forward.
