Choosing a gift for a teenage girl is a very difficult task. This is not a child, but still not an adult. She is unlikely to be happy with a soft toy, but she is still not able to appreciate the “adult” gifts, for example, a telescope or a microscope. It is difficult for the fact that at this age girls usually do not really know what they want. And then you have to make the most fantasy to please the young lady.
Traditional gifts
The first thing that comes to the donor’s mind is traditional gifts. These include sweets, gadgets, clothes or shoes. It is important to take into account the reason - a gift for the New Year has its own symbolic features, and a birthday present is another matter, it must necessarily emphasize the girl’s individuality. When choosing be sure to consider some of the tips of psychologists. Experts in the field of age psychology argue that for girls at the age of 12-15, their own appearance becomes very important, and for its decoration they usually do not spare their time and energy.
A teenage girl really wants to please others, especially - the opposite sex, and this is a completely normal stage of growing up.
Therefore, choosing a gift to a friend, daughter, It is important to dwell not on what you think is best for yourself, but on what the one who intends the gift should appreciate. If you find it difficult to make a choice, talk with your friend's daughter, with the children of your acquaintances, if they are in adolescence, to find out what is actually fashionable now. After that, you can safely go to choose something traditional from the list below.
Cosmetics and perfumes
It is no secret that many girls at the age of 13-15 start using cosmetics. Naturally, bright lipsticks and acid-colored nail polish for the young lady are not needed, and therefore Try to give a set that she can easily use in her daily life. These include hygienic lipstick with a delicate fruity odor (it helps a lot to keep your lips clear during physical education classes on the street, on the way to school, while walking), softening hand cream, toilet water with unobtrusive aroma of freshness or fruit.
You can add to the gift set of cosmetics a nail polish of a solid or delicate pastel shade, a manicure set so that the girl can maintain her nails in a tidy condition, several beautiful hairpins, if she has long hair.
Beneficially complement your gift set shower gel, shampoo (if you know the type of hair of the one to whom the gift is intended).
You should not focus on adult cosmetics, its composition can harm problematic teenage skin. There are special lines of adolescent cosmetics, for example, “Biobuty”, MAC, Covergirl.
You can give a set of makeup cosmetics, her teenagers are always happy, because the problem of acne during puberty is acute. pay attention to lines created specifically for teens: Clinique, Neutrogena, La Roche-Posay, Vichy.
Decorations
Depending on the financial condition of the donor, you can stop the choice of jewelry or jewelry. Both young fashionista will be delighted if the decoration matches her general style, character, and fashion trends. Chamber classic sets (earrings - necklaces) for a teenage girl are not suitable.You need to put a lot of patience to see what kind of jewelry she likes.
To do this, consider the style of the girl herself. - if she wears jeans and hooded sweatshirts, flower beads are hardly useful to her, but if she loves thin delicate dresses, you should not give her a bracelet with skulls so fashionable this season. She simply has nothing to put on.
You can ask whose image and jewelry she likes the most. If she says that this is Rihanna, you need to review a maximum of photos of the singer in order to catch the general meaning and theme of her jewelry, and then pick up something similar. But you can go the other way - Buy a gift voucher from a store or salon that has a large selection of teenage jewelry. And what to choose for him, the young beauty decides herself. In addition, the process of buying (even if pre-paid by parents) teenagers leads to complete delight.
The only thing that should be avoided so far is the purchase of very expensive jewelry as a gift. Teenagers are mobile, active and, alas, rather absent-minded. A girl may lose one earring, a ring, a bracelet, which will be a very tragic event for her.
clothing
Such a gift to a teenage girl is better to buy in her presence. Even the slightest remark to your chosen T-shirt or skirt can make the thing completely unattractive for the young person, and she will not wear it. Even if you know exactly what the girl wants, and her size, the thing can sit badly on her figure, and it is better to prevent such bitter girlish disappointments.
Clothing is not the best way to make a surprise. The young beauty will get much more pleasure from the gift if you just invite her to go shopping and choose something beautiful for her as a gift.
Fashion gadgets
Gadget teenager will be happy if this gadget is valuable to her, she needs. It is clear that the girl will be very pleased with the latest model of a cool smartphone, but this model is far from always worth as much as parents can afford to pay. In addition, teens and smartphones in adolescents usually already have.
If you want to please a teenage girl, Pay attention to such gadgets as smart watches, equipped with a navigator, Internet access, counting steps, calories consumed. The girl will be able to connect them to her smartphone and use the clock to send messages, as well as decide whether or not to accept the incoming call.
If a girl likes to listen to music (as all teenagers love to do), you can donate a portable music column. Creative girls can come in handy drawing tablet, which is equipped with an electronic pen. The eternal misfortune of a teenager - a discharged phone will help eliminate the external battery (power bank) once and for all. With him, the girl will always have a charged phone, regardless of whether there is a network source nearby or not.
Romantically-minded ladies will like night light that will project a star map on the ceiling and walls, and scattered girls can give an electronic search engine keys - keychain, which will respond to the claps or whistle of the hostess, to indicate the place where she put the keys.
Books
Such a gift will have the way, if a teenage girl likes to read. In this case, it is worth wondering which books she usually reads - regular or electronic. If the latter, then you can purchase an e-book, and to it a gift certificate of “Litres” or another e-library, where the girl will be able to choose independently what she likes.
Similarly, you can do with paper books. A gift certificate to a large bookstore, for example, in “Read-city”, will help save you from the agony of choice and give the girl a real pleasure. Reading people, regardless of their age, like to just go to bookstores, watch books.And if on hands there will be a gift paid certificate, the pleasure will be boundless.
It is not necessary to give books if the girl does not read or does it solely under duress as part of the school curriculum. The love of reading cannot be forcibly implanted.
Interesting ideas
If you want to hit a teenager, surprise with a gift, then it is worth considering unconventional ideas, unusual ones. Here are a few options.
Ticket for a concert or cinema

If it is a ticket to a film that is not interesting to her initially, or a ticket to a concert of a singer whom she does not listen to, does not like, then she will not bring a gift of joy. Find out which artist's concert she would like to see, which movie from today's cinema repertoire she would like to see.
Important: do not give one ticket. Surely a girl in her teens has a boyfriend or girlfriend, with whom visiting a concert or cinema will be doubly interesting and exciting. Give two tickets. And with whom to go to the cinema, let your young lady decide herself.
Visit to the SPA-salon
If your girl has long been interested in what they are doing in beauty salons and spas, it's time to introduce her to this. Present a paid gift certificate to the spa. Determine in advance that the teenager needs from the salon price list - Spa treatments for hair, skin or complex treatments.
Give such a certificate is not worth it if the girl does not express a desire to go to such an institution. This will be bewildered.

There are kits that will help to weld a beautiful and fragrant soap for themselves and their friends, kits that will help collect jewelry, decorations for various occasions, there are kits for home production of gift candles, fridge magnets, stained glass windows. In general, the choice is unlimited. It all depends on the nature and sphere of interest of a particular teenager.

As part of a photo shoot, the girl will be able to reveal herself, her character, and even for her parents her image can be very unexpected.
For a gift, you will need to choose a good photographer with professional equipment (visiting or with your own photo studio), specify the day and time of the session and please the young princess with the opportunity to be a model.
Sports Certificate
If a girl goes in for sports, dances, or wants to go to the gym, give her a paid certificate to a sports club. To him you can pick up a pair of sneakers or tracksuit.
Do it yourself
