25 Trendy 18 Year Old Christmas Gift Ideas Girl Version
Lots of the best gifts for an 18-year-old girl fall in the fashion and beauty lovers category, so you will find plenty of those in this gift guide.
We are posting inspiration photos along with several pieces we feature on this list so you can see how it is styled! Please note that these are not images of the exact items listed, but rather are images that we are inspired by, where the model or influencer used similar products.
Teenage girls are great at putting together fashionable looks and make up styles that look amazing not only on social media, but also for any photo album or journal they have.
e.l.f. Monochromatic Multi Stick
We will start off with this super useful multi – stick teen girls can use on their cheeks, lips and eyes to get that perfect sunkissed look no matter the time of year.
Apple AirPods Max Wireless Over-Ear Headphones
If you or your family members want to go all out and get the best 18th birthday gifts for your newly minted 18-year-old daughter, you cannot go wrong with these amazing headphones.
The best thing is that not only does it have superior sound quality, she can adjust the settings to transparency mode when she is out and about with her busy schedule, so that she can hear the world around her and be safe.
Puffer Vest
Not only is a puffer vest the height of teen girl fashion and the perfect gift, it actually also will help keep her warm when the weather starts to cool, so it is a practical gift too. If your favorite high schooler or recent graduate is always cold, she will love this!
There are lots of different colors, so plenty of options to choose from.
Cozy Slippers
The outfit picture from farmgirl featured above also shows off the absolute best thing when it comes to footwear that we have seen over the years – these cozy shoe slippers! We know Ugg boots are always popular, but there are also other brands that hit different price points that are just as fashionable!
Colorful Sneakers
We have seen teen girls rocking bright blue, mustard yellow, and emerald green sneakers, as well as these red ones. They all look amazing, so definitely get one in her favorite color to be extra special.
Castor Oil
I know this sounds funny to give as a gift, but it really is one of the hottest skin care items out right now! Dewey skin is the goal.
Purse Charms
If your girl loves a purse – some girls aren’t purse girlies, so don’t get this if she never carries one – but if she IS a purse girlie, purse decorations are the hottest thing right now!
Jo Malone Fragrance
Fragrances are always a perfect gift and can be found on most 18 year olds wish list. Jo Malone perfumes are super popular right now, and this sample pack lets her try several of them. She also try layering the fragrances too. This is a brilliant gift!
Lip Stain
The latest lippy to tuck into makeup bags – lip stain. It will keep her color in place even when drinking out of her coffee mug or stanley cups.
Grandpa Sweater
Grandpa style is definitely on trend, and is a great gift to get her. We have to think that all the Grandpas must think it is hilarious that young adults have embraced this style trend!
Long Sleeve Crop Top
These crop tops give a little more coverage so they are perfect for the fall, winter and spring months before the weather warms up. They are great for layering under other shirts are jackets, and are staples during the teen years and beyond.
Grippies
To get the perfect fit for the crop tops, these are great to wear and is a great gift idea that she will love because she likely wouldn’t buy it for herself.
Lulu Define Jacket
This is one of the best teen girl gifts – trust us! Lulu is always a winner, and this jacket in particular is really popular among teen girls. It is a perfect choice to get her for Christmas or her milestone birthday.
Gel Nail Kit
A nail kit is a great way to let her do a little pampering without breaking the bank. She can take this to college and do her nails in her dorm room without having to spend a lot of money to get them done.
Books
We always put books on our gift lists, and this book by Jennette McCurdy is one written by a child star that your teenage girl likely grew up with in her younger years. Be mindful – this book tackles very tough subjects, but is a riveting read.
Birkenstocks
The clog style is the perfect shoe to wear for colder weather months, and makes it on of the best 18th birthday gift ideas, or Christmas gift ideas. The high-quality materials Birks are made with virtually guarantees this will be a gift she wears for many years to come.
Cute Tap Light
These little silicone tap lights make cute, unique gifts that she will love! They make a great ambient light on a nightstand – perfect for her room at home or in the dorms. No need for harsh overhead lighting.
Nike Joggers
Definitely one of the top picks in terms of gifts teenage girls love to get – nike joggers. Dressed up or down, these are staples that they live in all year long.
Chore Jacket
Chore jackets are the hottest oversize look in jackets for this year, so you will be on top of the latest trend when you get her one of these.
Cute Iced Coffee Jars
Iced coffee is the lifeblood of 18 year old girls, and these glass jars are just perfect for daily use!
Car Accessories
We know she loves her car and you can find very budget friendly car accessories that she can use to personalize it with her very own style.
Ariana Grande Perfume
This perfume line is a runaway hit – you can’t go wrong with any of the fragrances. Perfect sweet smelling perfume that teens love.
Layered Necklaces
Layered necklaces are the accessory du jour. You can go with gold, or sterling silver, or both if she likes to mix metals.
Chunky Sweater
A chunky sweater is a cold season essential, and this one in a neutral color is one she will be able to wear for years. Its the interesting mix of being both trendy and a classic.
Oversized Hoodie
No longer waiting to steal one from teenage boys, girls are loving to have oversized hoodies of their own.
Converse
You will see converse sprinkled in on several of the looks featured on this post, and we added another version here. The best part about these sneakers are that these are so versatile, they work both dressed down or dressed up.
Purse
This is the hottest purse style right now. It is moving away from the shoulder bag style, and burgundy is the color of the season this year. Honestly though, we love burgundy, so a purse or handbag this gorgeous transcends trends.
BONUS IDEA
This idea is a bit out of the norm, so that is why we are thinking of it as a bonus idea.
If none of these gift ideas are working for you, here is a great gift idea for a 18 year old girl – set them up a high yield savings account!
One of the best gifts you can give a young girl is the knowledge and tools that she can use to be financially stable. Starting young is a brilliant idea!
Most savings accounts are complete trash when it comes to their interest rates. The money is not working for you at all. They basically just store the money for you, and the money doesn’t grow. A high yield savings account grows your money for you.
A high yield savings account is super easy to set up, and it is used just like a regular savings account. So, as a gift idea, take the money you were going to spend on a gift for the 18 year old, set up the account, deposit the gift money, and let her know that she all set up with an account that will work for her!
Starting a young lady off with a high yield savings account in which she can put money she receives from her birthday, Christmas, or earns from her job, is a great idea, and one that she may not have even thought about.
