West told SheKnows that it’s important to keep in mind what your teen’s interests and hobbies are first when shopping for the perfect gift. “Who their favorite TikTok star is or what shows they engage with can give you some fun insight into their preferences,” she said. And of course, it doesn’t hurt to ask, “What are your favorite brands right now?”
According to West, tried and true brands like Bobbi Brown and MAC are staples that will always remain popular among makeup beginners. But right now, cute giftable sets are one of the most popular items to add to your cart. So, you can’t go wrong with “minis or multiple items from their favorite brands that they can throw into their school bag,” West says. Some examples of this would be a festive lip set from Kylie Cosmetics or an all-inclusive full-on gel nail kit from Le Mini Macaron.
