If you’ve ever tried to buy a gift for a teenage girl, you probably realized very quickly it’s not always easy to do. Teenagers can sometimes be fickle, which means they change their mind often. So something they like today, may not be what they like next week or next month. This problem is compounded by the various trends teenagers pay attention to. Here’s a list of the best gifts for teenage girls, to make your life easier when you’re ready to start shopping for this year’s gifts.
If you happen to know your teenager gift recipient well, your life will be easier. But that’s not always the case, so let’s look at some simple gift ideas for teenage girls that usually go over very well.

Best Gifts For Teenage Girls
1. Teenage jewelry
Most teenage girls, as well as women of any age, love to receive jewelry as a gift.
But of course, not all girls like wearing jewelry. So do a little bit of investigative work to learn if your recipient actually would wear your gift.
For example:
- does she have her ears pierced?
- have you seen her with a necklace?
- can you spot a bracelet or a watch on her wrist?
Even if she only wears them once in a while, chances are any type of jewelry like that is probably a safe gift idea.

2. Teenage makeup
Buying a nice makeup case and filling it with lots of small travel-sized items might be the best way to go about this when you’re not sure what she likes.
Alternatively, you could buy her a nice makeup brush set, because makeup brushes are supposed to be replaced regularly, or, a nice eyeliner in the color of her eyes.

6. Romantic Novels for Teens
Every girl loves to curl up with a good book and forget about those around her. My daughter would read a book a day during vacations (not a 100-page book either). She loved going in her own world of dreams through her books.
Give this experience to your teen: you won’t regret it.

9. A gift certificate
When you really don’t know what to give a teenage girl, a gift certificate it’s always welcome: she’ll get exactly what she wanted. It’s like a license to go shopping 😉
Where could you get a gift certificate? Amazon.com is a great place. They have several options for delivery:

- and even through Facebook
I hope you now have some ideas about where to start when looking to buy the best gifts for teenage girls.

Teen girls are busy, busy. Teen girls also need proper downtime to rest their minds and a great way to do that is to doodle…or color in these amazing Detailed Designs coloring books! My daughters LOVE these and have even framed their favorites.
