@ZoeGardner The brand GlowRecipe has really good skincare, my faves are Glow Recipe Watermelon Glow Niacinamide Dew Drops Serum 2.7 oz / 80 mL and Glow Recipe Watermelon Glow PHA + BHA Pore-Tight Toner 5.07 oz/ 150 mL  ! If their full sizes are too expensive, they have mini versions too. I hope this helps! ๐Ÿ’•

My friend is a huge fan of Fenty Beauty and Urban Decay, and her birthday is just around the corner. I want to get her a fantastic gift without breaking the bank, as my budget is around $30. She's not into extensive makeup but loves lip gloss and mascara. I was wondering if anyone has some great suggestions for affordable Fenty Beauty or Urban Decay products or maybe some hidden gems from other brands available at Sephora.

Heyyy coming from an older teenager the best thing to get would be anything from the ordinary or the glow recipe toner but that is more pricey but from the ordinary I would recommend the AHA and BHA peeling mask!!

Re: Tween/teen birthday recommendations (skincare mainly)

The ordinary gift sets or mini sol de Janeiro are good options 

Re: Tween/teen birthday recommendations (skincare mainly)

Fenty face srub exfoliator, fenty eye cream and also if you want to go further for makeup I'd get Haus Labs @ZoeGardner 

Re: Tween/teen birthday recommendations (skincare mainly)

I see a lot of great recommendations already @ZoeGardner.

Have you picked up anything yet?

There are some lovely gifts sets this time of year, you said she likes Sol De Janeiro? Have you seen thier new release,

Sol de Janeiro Beija Florโ„ข Jet Set  ? There's a few thou can look through, I like the the sets for value ๐Ÿ˜Š

Re: Tween/teen birthday recommendations (skincare mainly)

hii! yes i choose stuff. i couldnโ€™t find a good set she would like so i am getting her the sol de janiero gel cream wash and the ordinary serum! also with other purchases like candy and stuff! โ˜บ๏ธโญ๏ธ๐Ÿฉท

Re: Tween/teen birthday recommendations (skincare mainly)

Yeahy! I'm glad you were able to find something @ZoeGardner Nice! Candy goes well with everything. ๐Ÿ˜„๐Ÿญ  

Re: Tween/teen birthday recommendations (skincare mainly)

Try the Glossier mascara! Itโ€™s cheap and has the best packaging 

Re: Tween/teen birthday recommendations (skincare mainly)

She might enjoy The Ordinary gift sets such as The Skinimalist Set (I really enjoyed this set!)

Re: Tween/teen birthday recommendations (skincare mainly)

hii! i did choose some stuff but i was wondering if you would link that for me? it sounds interesting and i might get that instead!

Re: Tween/teen birthday recommendations (skincare mainly)

Sure!  The Ordinary The Skinimalist Set  ๐Ÿ™‚

Re: Tween/teen birthday recommendations (skincare mainly)

Yes! I recommend the Drunk Elephant mini polypeptide and mini LalaRetro! The subtotal is only 40 dollars!

Re: Tween/teen birthday recommendations (skincare mainly)

@ZoeGardnerAnother product that I quite like is the LANEIGE Midnight Minis Set . Although the products are described as sleeping masks (for your lips), I also like them as quick lip glosses. The scents are fun, and there's very little colour to the products. Similarly, there's the LANEIGE Divine Lip Duo Set which would give her a gloss for day and a lip mask for night.

 

Hope this helps, and that your friend has a wonderful birthday!

Re: Tween/teen birthday recommendations (skincare mainly)

Sorry, @SportyGirly125 clearly I need more coffee! I see now that you already recommended the Divine Lip Duo. But two votes can't be a bad thing. LOL

Re: Tween/teen birthday recommendations (skincare mainly)

@ZoeGardner   For under $30 you could get a skincare set like The Ordinary The Daily Set LANEIGE Water Bank Blue Hydration Heroes Set with Hyaluronic Acid 

Re: Tween/teen birthday recommendations (skincare mainly)

@ZoeGardner You can always go for the mini/travel size skincare products. She might love Glow Recipe. 

some sets that are good for $35 are LANEIGE Divine Lip Duo Set 

LANEIGE Besties Skincare Discovery Set
