Koolatron Retro Portable Mini Fridge
The height of cool for a sleepover with a best friend, a mini fridge gives your teen's bedroom an authentic hotel style but is also perfect for a games room or loft conversion where teens can hang out and watch films on Netflix or just game.
The Koolatron 6-can portable fridge has an eye-catching yet retro design and is both a fun and functional present that any teenage girl will fall in love with. In pretty blush pink with stylish chrome accents, this fridge holds six standard soft drinks cans and sits easily on a desk or shelf. In addition, it features a removable shelf and offers a range of storage options for drinks and snacks on a movie night with girlfriends or even cosmetics and skincare products. Effortlessly portable, this fridge will travel as it has a secure, twist-lock door handle and an inset carry handle.
Energy-efficient, eco-friendly thermoelectric technology will ensure everything is cool without wasted energy or harmful chemicals, so if you are gifting for an eco-conscious teen, then this really will tick the "coolest gift" box.
Nivea Rainbow Collection Gift Set
A gift box full of indulgent skincare gifts will always go down well, but it can be tricky to get the pitch just right. The teen years are when girls start to wake up to the importance of a good skincare routine. But equally, they don't want products that might suggest they are old before their time - it's a fine line, and we are talking wrinkles! So avoid any products which are anti-ageing regardless of how good quality they are.
This beauty set from Nivea pitches it just right with products to care for the face and body. A refreshing shower gel plus two face masks featuring honey extract and natural almond oil might mean the bathroom is out of bounds for even longer than usual. A gentle purifying face wash will cleanse and soothe sensitive teenage skin, and this gift set includes a soft revitalising moisturising cream that works for all skin types and isn't heavy or greasy.
There are plenty of other goodies, including a nourishing lip balm, makeup remover lotion and a spray antiperspirant. This set has something for everyone, comes from a brand accessible to teenagers, and won't break the bank if they want to buy some more items themselves.
Polaroid Now Instant Camera i-Type
It's hard to imagine why a polaroid camera would be popular in the digital age, but retro style is back. Polaroids mean thinking carefully before you shoot, as you can't swipe and delete like on a phone. And teens are discovering the joy of waiting for pictures to develop and not having that instant fix you get with a digital device. Who knew?!
This Polaroid point-and-shoot analogue instant camera creates all the magic of Polaroid and delivers a film-based image that looks and feels like a real photograph. Made along the lines of the popular Instax Mini, the pictures have sharp vivid colours, and with autofocus, you don't have to get technical; click, and it's done. There is a timer if that selfie is just irresistible, plus a double exposure feature which allows you to frame two moments in one. Whatever you do, don't forget to buy the film!
ZTOFERA TPU Back Case for iPhone XR
Phone cases are a fashion accessory these days. Think of them like a handbag when it comes to design and styling. Now card payments are mostly made using a banking app, most teenage girls won't carry a bag or even a purse. Their whole life is on their device, whether it's in their hand or tucked securely into the back pocket of their jeans. So, the latest phone is par for the course, but if they already have this, why not choose a designer phone case or a selection of cases so they can pick one to match their mood or outfit? That could be quite a few!
This stylish phone case from ZTOFERA is compatible with the iPhone XR. It is made from premium quality material, so it is both stylish and durable. Functional and nice to look at, the non-slip matte case is smooth and feels luxurious to the touch but is also secure and offers a good grip. The surface is designed not to mark or scratch and to resist dust and fingerprints. In addition, there are raised edges to protect the screen and camera from abrasion on rough surfaces.
The pretty daisy design will appeal to teenage girls who want to show it off as they watch their favourite Harry Potter movie or the latest blockbuster on Netflix. There is easy access to the screen, camera, function ports and speaker without removing the cover. Back covers are the most popular as they are easy to change and don't restrict phone usage.

Diyife 120 LED Photo Clip String Lights
The bedroom is always a focal point at any age, but for a teenager, this becomes their private space and how it is decorated and looks becomes a statement of their taste and personal expression. Lighting and fairy lights are often popular among teen girls, so why not mix mood lighting with photos?
The Diyife 120 LED Photo Clip String Lights are up to 12m long and hold 60 clips for plenty of photos. Made from high-quality copper wire, your teenage daughter or granddaughter can bend the string to any shape, including a traditional straight line, a square to go around the window, waves or a heart shape. These are battery-operated with eight lighting modes, chosen via remote control, including slow speed, constant light, and flashing. Although these lights are destined for a teen bedroom, the lucky recipient can use them outside too. They make a great addition to a summer party or when camping in the garden. Just remember the battery box is not waterproof and will need protection from the elements.
With endless possibilities, these string lights are perfectly festive and seasonal but will prove so popular that you can bet they will be up all year round. Remember the AAA batteries!
