Eyeshadow palette for a teen

11 replies

MavisBarrel · 12/12/2025 15:49

Hi DD is nearly 15. Wears a bit of eyeliner and mascara to school but not loads. She hasn’t asked for make up for Christmas but I think she ould love a large selection of eyeshadows for occasional parties , events etc when she tends to borrow from my limited selection of neutrals.
can anyone suggest a nice but not too expensive palette I could give her as an extra gift for Christmas?
I looked at urban decay for example but not sure they are young colours / brand of choice
TIA

What is your budget and your DD’s colouring?

I managed to snag the trendy Huda Beauty Rose Quartz eyeshadow palette at 50% off for my teen. I wouldn’t really consider it affordable at full price.

Does she wear a lot of makeup? Teens don’t seem to wear eyeshadow any more. Mine are more into skincare and lipgloss

Most of her make up is Elf. I use things like Bobbi Brown , Charlotte tilbury . Happy with £20-30 , could spend more but she doesn’t have any brands on her radar so don’t want to go all out .
i saw a Morphe one on Look fantastic for £30 but not in stock and I don’t know the brand .
