Teen Girls Beauty & Essentials

by Kiera Wallace | Updated: November 9, 2024

These ideas for teens include everyday essentials for girls! Try this natural skincare and cozy loungewear, or get organized with trendy room decor and organizing solutions. I know exactly what teen girls like, because I am one. I’m 12 years old and I love beauty products, jewelry, and stylish clothes.

L’BRI Products

First on my list, L’BRI skin care products are amazing and effective. I think these products are wonderful and refreshing. They help so much with my mild acne. Personally, my favorite products are the Oil-Free Moisture Lotion, Deep Pore Freshener, and Deep Pore Cleanser. L’BRI skincare is made with all natural ingredients, with aloe as the main ingredient.

Comfy from Costco

The Comfy (from Costco) is the coziest body-shaped blanket ever! I pretty much live in it. ๐Ÿ™‚ย  My dad got this Comfy wearable blanket about four years ago and he used it a lot. Recently I found it stuffed in the closet and… I adopted it! My Comfy is fleece-lined and it has a big pocket on the front. I especially love wearing it while I watch movies!

Mini Fridge

For those who love organizing, a mini fridge is a perfect item for a teen girl’s bedroom. You can use a mini fridge to store skincare or snacks. They are adorable and useful. Personally, I use my mini fridge for snacks. My favorite part about my mini fridge is the mirror on the front, which also has a lighted strip. I definitely recommend a mini fridge, a must-have on my list of ideas for teens!

Jewelry Box – Ideas for Teens

Next on my list of things teen girls need, the Voova Jewelry Box is one of my favorite things in my room. It has a lot of storage for jewelry such as earrings, bracelets, and necklaces. I think the box is cute, stylish, and a good way to organize special treasures and accessories. A classic jewelry box is also a fun gift for any teen girl.

lululemon Cross Body Bag

lululemon is one of my favorite brands. Because of this, I think their cross body bag is so cool and useful. I practically wear my cross body bag everywhere! This bag has three mesh pockets inside and one zip-up pocket on the back. I use my cross body bag to store lip balm, money & cards, and hand sanitizer. It is small enough to take anywhere!

Squishmallows

Additionally, Squishmallows are definitely an essential item for teen girls. They are perfect to use as cute decor or to hug when you feel sad. You can find many styles of squishmallows on Amazon. I lay on my squishmallows and cuddle them when I watch movies.

Graphic Tees – Ideas for Teens

Every single teenager absolutely needs a collection of graphic tees!!! They are cute & stylish, and you can get them in so many different designs. Make sure to choose graphic tees that are good quality and not too expensive. You can buy graphic tees at Kohls or on Amazon. Graphic tees are so cute to wear to school, youth group, and in everyday life.

Jewelry Hanger

Jewelry hangers are very useful for displaying cute accessories such as necklaces and earrings. I got mine at a garage sale, but you can also get a jewelry hanger on Amazon. Before you buy a jewelry hanger, make sure it is tasteful and good quality.

LED Light Box

I absolutely love this LED light box because I can use my creativity to write whatever I want, in my own way. I can arrange the letter cards to spell words on the board and then hit a switch to light up my custom message. You can find a variety of light box styles on Amazon. Light boxes are especially fun to use as party decor.

Travel Caddy – Ideas for Teens

Next, this adorable pink cosmetic box has a lid with a mirror and a light that converts into a mini vanity. This caddy is great for storing makeup and skincare. Furthermore, I can easily bring it to cheerleading performances and on a trip. The box holds a generous number of makeup products, and the mirror swivels from vertical to horizontal to become the box lid. Overall, I think this travel caddy combines cute style with clever design, making it perfect for teen girls.

That’s all for now! I hope you enjoyed my girly list of ideas for teens. ๐Ÿ™‚ Many of these items can be very helpful for organizing and enjoying teen girl life. I might add some more things to this post in the feature!

๐ŸŒ‰ Destination Highlight: Tower Bridge, London! ๐ŸŒ‰ Destination Highlight: Tower Bridge, London! ๐Ÿ‡ฌ๐Ÿ‡ง

Tower Bridge ended up being such a memorable stop! The walkways offer amazing views of the River Thames and the city skyline.

โœจ Fun facts:

Tower Bridge opened in 1894 after eight years of construction.

Itโ€™s a bascule bridge, meaning the roadway lifts up for tall ships to pass through.

The glass floor walkways were added in 2014, giving visitors a thrilling (and slightly scary!) perspective from 138 feet above the Thames.

Our kids loved learning how the bridge lifts up using giant counterweights, and we all left with a new appreciation for Londonโ€™s engineering and history. ๐Ÿ’™

Would you be brave enough to walk across the glass floor? ๐Ÿ˜„

A day exploring London with four kids! โ˜€๏ธ๐Ÿ‡ฌ๐Ÿ‡ง

Here are a few of our favorite family-friendly spots ๐Ÿ‘‡

โœจ Big Ben & the London Eye โ€“ Iconic landmarks and amazing views around Westminster.

๐ŸŒ‰ Tower Bridge โ€“ An interactive, educational stop that our kids absolutely loved!

๐Ÿ›๏ธ British Museum โ€“ We explored Egyptian and Assyrian exhibits and even saw the Rosetta Stone! ๐Ÿคฏ

๐Ÿ›๏ธ Liberty London โ€“ A fun and colorful stop for unique souvenirs and creative inspiration.

Every corner of London had something special; so much history, beauty, and adventure for families! ๐Ÿ’‚โ€โ™€๏ธ๐Ÿ’™

We save a ton of money while traveling with these We save a ton of money while traveling with these creative housing options! โœจ 

Spend more time in each place you visit and live like a local, instead of just passing through.

Weโ€™ve loved discovering ways to travel that feel authentic and affordable! 

๐Ÿ  HomeExchange lets you stay in real homes that are comfy, family-friendly, and full of character. With a unique points system, you can travel flexibly โ€” like we do all around the world! Use your points to stay in memorable homes, or exchange your home directly. Weโ€™ve done both and made some unforgettable memories along the way!

๐Ÿฑ Trusted Housesitters is another great housing resource. These arranged stays typically include caring for someoneโ€™s pets, while staying at their house. Weโ€™ve stayed in many beautiful homes in exchange for petsitting dogs, cats, and chickens!

๐ŸŒ Servas allows travelers to connect with hosts all around the world. Weโ€™ve stayed in a familyโ€™s extra bedrooms or living space and enjoyed a homecooked meal, while learning about local culture. Servas hosts typically love meeting new people and hearing their stories! ๐Ÿ’› Itโ€™s only tricky if you donโ€™t speak the same language! ๐Ÿ˜† 

Slow travel gives kids time to explore, play, and feel at home wherever we land โ€” and gives us parents a chance to catch our breath between adventures. 

๐ŸŒŸ Which housing resource sounds the most interesting to you?

Hi! Weโ€™re the Wallace family. ๐Ÿ‘‹๐Ÿ˜€ We love traveling with our 4 kids, homeschooling, and exploring.

These mobile laundry machines were actually so helpful. We could wash and dry our whole familyโ€™s clothes while we had lunch nearby! ๐Ÿ‘š๐Ÿ‘—๐Ÿ‘•๐Ÿ‘–

Secrets revealed ๐ŸŒ for family travel & worldsch Secrets revealed ๐ŸŒ for family travel & worldschooling!

These tips make traveling with kids ALOT easier!

๐Ÿ“š Schoolwork: Our kids complete lessons in their workbooks several times a week. While traveling, we often bring along Math-U-See workbooks, language arts, and spelling. This keeps our kids moving forward and feeling productive. 

๐Ÿฐ Field trips: We go on excursions to amazing castles, fascinating museums, and interesting cultural centers. We talk about geography and science as we explore amazing places!

๐ŸŽง Downtime: We often have rest time while traveling. We read books or listen to audio books and music. ย 

๐Ÿ’ถ Allowance: We give our kids weekly spending money. They can earn this by doing chores at our Airbnb. I also pay our kids to participate in family photos, often $5 each per city! This results in great attitudes when taking photos in Paris, Rome, or London. ๐Ÿ“ธ๐Ÿ˜€

With these tips, our travel life easily becomes regular life, and we get to see amazing destinations and make memories together!
