I would have to say this is one of the most popular gift guides every year. Emery and Anisten’s favorite things they’re eyeing each year! Check out the WOMEN’S GIFT GUIDE for more ideas.
Toiletry Bags – Great to keep things ultra organized.
Bling Sting – If you’ve got a driver, having one of these could save their life! It’s a seatbelt cutter and glass breaker in one. She probably won’t be excited about it but you will.
Notebooks – Thought these were cute to journal with or use for school! HERE’s another cute one.
Silver Ring Tray – If your girls are anything like mine, then they’ve got lots of jewelry. This is a cute tray for all the earrings + rings.
Eyelash Curler – My girls use a lighter to warm up the curler and then curl their lashes. This lash curler is the best one I have ever tried!
How to Win Friends and Influence People for Teen Girls – Braun made it a requirement that all of our kids have to read this book before they can get their license. It’s a good one that teaches so much, this one is specifically for teen girls too.
Beddy’s Blanket – Okay, this has been a game changer.. I LOVE IT. They launched this year and I can’t get enough.. It’s a thin blanket that is stretchy on one side and soft minky fabric on the other. It also comes with a carrying bag. Code TARA will save you!
Fuzzy Ear Muffs – These are super cute for winter + they won’t ruin their hair! These are on Em’s list!
Echo Spot – This is a new amazon product. It’s like an upgraded echo spot. I like that it displays the time + comes with all the amazon features we love. I also love that I can *drop in* from my phone to their rooms and tell them they’re late for school.
Bombas – All three of us wear these socks just about every day. The color and length are PERFECT. Plus, there’s no seams. Try code EXCLUSIVE25 for 25% off! My girls also love these ruffle socks.
Levi Jeans – The levi low loose jeans are emery’s favorite. She sizes up one size in them for an oversized fit. Anisten keeps her regular size.
Baggy Dad Levis Jeans – Another pair both my girls love. These are Em’s number 1!
Hyrdrojug – The girls got these as a cheer gift this last year and love them. They’re completely leak proof which is so nice to throw in sports bags or in the car. Code TARA works for 10% off sitewide!
Summer Friday Lip Mask – Another lip product favorite. It can be used as a gloss or as an overnight mask. Super hydrating and some great color options.
AirPods – Just make sure they are super careful and don’t lose one of them! But these are a teen must!
Curling Iron – I’ve RAVED about this curling iron for 2 years now. I originally got it for Anisten for Christmas and had to go back and order myself some. It’s the best one I’ve found and my curls hold up so well. I usually pull for the 1.25’’.
Anker Lightning Charger – This is perfect for when you need to quickly charge your phone on the go. I bought it for the Taylor Swift concert last year and have used it all the time since. It’s so handy and love that no cords are involved. USB-C link and the LIGHTENING link.
Shoes – Emery had been DYING to have a pair of them and finally got her hands on some for back to school. They’re called Onitsuka Tiger Mexico 66. I love the silver metallic! I’m wearing a 6.5 in them (it’s men’s sizing).. I’m a 8.5 in hokas, a 7.5 in sambas, and an 8 in nikes for reference! The link is going to take you to a VERY reputable resell site. We’ve bought a lot of shoes from here and haven’t had an issue.
Polaroid Frame – Add a polaroid camera to this gift. Would be fun for their rooms!
Camp Snap – A screen free digital camera, so you have the feel of an old school film camera, but the ease of it being digital. The pictures turn out so cute too! Emery took this to Nepal!
Sonicare Toothbrush – Bougth these for all the kids. They’re battery powered so you still get the electric toothbrush without having to worry about charging them.. PERFECT for a forgetful teenager.
Lola Blankets – Everyone used to steal mine in the house, so I had to get them all their own. They’ve quickly made their way to the top of the Thueson fam faves! The softest blankets we’ve come across. Code TARA will save you.
Mirror – Who doesn’t love a full body mirror. An essential in my opinion!
Elf Lip Oil – Super similar to the Dior lip oil but a lot less $. Lots of colors that are subtle and high gloss. Emery loves them.
Planner – For your organized girls. Perfect for school.
Car Litter Bags – A great gift if you’ve got a new driver!
Rhode Lip Tint – Em loves finding new lip glosses and this one is a fave. Buildable, glossy and comes in the prettiest colors.
The Daily Essential Co. – Emery uses this as part of her skincare routine and it’s done wonders. My discount code applies automatically.
COSRX Snail Mucus Masks – If you don’t think about the fact you’re putting SNAIL MUCUS on your face, it really is a great mask for a great price.
Purple Pillow – I have this on the men’s gift guide too! We all love them. It’s made from the same material as Purple mattresses and is self cooling. I’m thinking this will make the perfect gift for your kids headed of to college soon. Don’t forget to add this pillowcase too! They are stretchy + silky + super COLD. Feel like HEAVEN.
Jewelry Case – This one is compact, but has a lot of storage options. Plus, it has a little mirror which is awesome.
Jovi Patch – My girls use these for period pain, but they are good for any type of pain! It dulls it out and has helped Em so much. I don’t understand the wizardry, but it works. They recently launched the REYA patch which can be used for 5-7 days and is waterproof. Use code TARA.
Glossier Perfume – A perfume that smells a bit different on everyone? My girls have worn and loved for years.
Rael Zit Patches – My girls’ favorite zit patches. They are pretty invisible and work so well.
Bronzing Drops – You can add a little of these to your moisturizer for a nice glow!
Thread Wallet – My girls’ fave wallet. They have tons of color + style options and hold quite a few cards. Code TARA20 saves you 20% sitewide!
Silver Keychain – I love how popular cute keychains are this year!
Air Tags – Another peace of mind product. I have these on the dogs as well incase they get out. Perfect for a set of keys with this case or this one!
Wrist Keychain – Love the colors on this one!
Airpod Max – You know my love for Apple… These are the best headphones, Em + Anisten agree!
SD Card Reader for your Phone – This is a lifesaver for me! I use it all the time to get photos from my camera to my phone instantly. If you have girls who love to use a camera, this is so nice.
First Aid Kit – A little place to keep the essentials! I’m gonna get Em one to put in her car. But it would also be great in a sports bag or backpack.
Makeup Brushes – I gifted these to Anisten last year. Comes with a bunch and the quality has been surprisingly awesome.
Compact Mirror – I keep this in my purse and one in my travel bag. It’s got lights all around it so it’s perfect for on the go.
Castor Oil – My girls swear by this! They use it in their hair, on their face, it helps with hair growth and a whole bunch of other things.
Brazilian Crush Cheirosa ’62 Bum Bum Hair & Body Fragrance Mist – Another great scent my girls love. I would describe it as warm and cozy.
Rio De Janero Trio Perfume – Been sharing this the past couple months. Has three of their most popular perfumes. Would be great to split up for friend gifts or stocking stuffers too. Smells soooo good.

Jewelry Dish – Emery loved this one.
Suction Phone Mount – This handy little gadget sticks to the back of your phone and can suction to things like glass, tile, mirrors, etc. It’s nice too because you can take it off and clean it then restick to your phone when you want to use it again.
Baggu Crescent Bag – Both my girls’ favorite purse!
Anker 6 ft Charger – Each person in our fam has their own color of charger because Braun was sick of his going missing. These are the 6 ft ones and come with a cord clip too. They’re the best.
Glow Beauty Brush – Love, love, love this brush. The bristles are metal so it feels like a head massage every time you use it. Designed my cosmetologist too! Code TARA saves you 10%!
Weighted Heating Pad – Bought this for myself and my girls are constantly using it. It’s the BEST to go to bed with at night, cramps, or when ya need to warm up.

BAGGU Faves – My girls love, love, love Baggu. Here is all their favorites.
- Go Pouches
- Totes
- Cargo Bag – I have one of these and use it when we travel because it folds up really small to pack, but can hold a lot.

- Flat Pouches
- Medium Crescent Bag – Emery use this one the most for traveling.
Camera – It’s pricey for a digital camera but we have loved it.

Wonder Water – Bought this for Anisten last year and she’s been obsessed ever since! Super affordable and makes your hair super silky + shiny.
