Great teen gift ideas for under $50

Are you having a hard time trying to figure out what kind of gift to give for a teenager? There are so many options, and a lot of different styles for teens, but these great gifts under $50 are something you should consider.

For Her:

1. The Ultimate Make-up Paletes can be found at gifts.com, Sephora online, or at a Sephora store. It includes over 100 different eye shadow colors to choose from, inspiring your teen to play and create different looks for each occasion. It comes in a three-level case, complete with a mirror and stand.

This is great gift for anyone interested in makeup to have, as it is very convenient to carry around, doesn’t make a mess on the countertop, and is designed to be compact and fit anywhere. Whenever your teen wants to experiment with different styles and find their “makeup artist” attitude, they only have to go to one place to find it all.

2. For only $40, Clocky will force your teen girl to wake up from her beauty sleep and get moving. This clock one of the only clocks that runs and hides away if you don’t wake up on time. It sounds scary for those who love to repeatedly hit the snooze button on and stay snuggled under the covers, but no more tardy slips for your teen.

Designed to promptly display the time, set alarm and snooze times and can hang on the floor or nightstand, this versatile clock can go with just about any room décor.

3. From the American Eagle Store for only $20, this stylish accessory is not only convenient, but originally creative as well. These faux-fur earmuffs, available in different colors, also serves as headphones with a small cord that can placed in your phone or IPod.
These earmuffs will keep your ears warm with a faux-suede headband to stay in place. And if you want to switch up your styles and just wear earmuffs with the white adjustable cords.

For Him:

1. The Cohesion XP Gaming Chair is a perfect gift for your gamer. At $43, found at Target, this convertible couch is shaped to give a relaxed feel to your teen while keeping him positioned right. He won’t get any backaches with this chair being made of 100 percent foam and a reclining style to it.

With its soft, ripply texture, your teen might choose sleeping in this chair. It’s durable and very easy to clean, with just a warm cloth to softly clean it and letting it air-dry.

2. For $50, fitting standard-sized beds, this creative bedding will make anyone jealous. With a white background, you can tell where the name comes from, as it is designed to give the look of a life-size graphic drawing covering the entire bed. It will remind your teen of a cool puzzle, as every time you look at it you might find something new.

Castles, robots, creatures, cars, trucks, cityscapes … this urban industrial fantasy design by Yann Legendre will be sure to give your teen guy lots of creative thoughts before he goes to sleep, not to mention a feeling of comfort and luxury resting on pure cotton sheets.

3. Monsterhoodies for Guys from Busted Tees are soft and lightweight, with a fleece material.

Although it fits like a regular hoodie, the thing making this gift stand out is the hood: it’s designed into a shark mouth with white teeth around the edges. So for those ”Jaws” fans and just creative people alike, this one hoodie for $50 will be sure to make them smile wide. It is available in both adult and kid sizes.
