Ways for Tweens to Look the Same, but Different

Adolescence is filled with changes, challenges and crossroads. The way to young adulthood can be exciting, stressful, frightening and definitely unfamiliar, leading many tweens and teens to sometimes feel isolated and misunderstood. Helping adolescents express themselves through creativity and art is a beneficial way for them to communicate their personal identity. Letting girls have some creative freedom with their hair, accessories and clothing choices empowers them and gives them confidence.

To make it a bit easier for parents to accept are creative, non-permanent options that allow girls to show off their individuality, but are as easy to change as their moods. Colorful hair wraps, glittery temporary tattoos, jewelry that reflects their interests and fun, funky accessories all help girls to show off their sense of style. Here are some winners for tween changelings: That’s Perfect, Glitter My Tattoo, Darling Charms and New Dimensions Toys & Trends.

Girls Take a Shine to Glitter My Tattoo

Glitter My Tattoo is premium cosmetic body art, created by using brilliant cosmetic glitter, hypoallergenic skin adhesive and Skinsense Pro stencils. The cosmetic glitter is a non-metal, super fine polyester micro glitter. The super fine size is what gives the tattoo a diamond-like, brilliant shine.

With Glitter My Tattoo, tweens and teens can express themselves and show their creativity without the commitment of a permanent tattoo. Parents will appreciate that all materials used to produce Glitter My Tattoo are made in the U.S.A. and are approved by the FDA for skin contact.

Tattoos can last from three to seven days with proper care, and are waterproof so showers and swimming will not affect their brilliant beauty.

Girls can use the stencils or get creative and use the “Skin Takk” skin adhesive to create their own designs. Glitter My Tattoo is a big hit with girls as an activity at birthday and slumber parties, as they are easy to apply and look great.

Darling Charms Commemorate a Young Girl’s Life

Handmade quality jewelry for young girls is always a great choice. Darling Charms creates handmade products that meet high standards of beauty and durability. Darlings Charms jewelry is intended for ages 13 and up. The chains used in the bracelets, necklaces and earrings are imitation rhodium plated brass, so they will never rust. Darling Charms chose the rhodium over silver because it looks more natural, more like sterling. All of their chains, charms and jewelry components meet or exceed government standards for lead content in children’s jewelry.

Charm bracelets are a great way for girls to show off their personality and celebrate the things they love. These bracelets, featuring pewter charms, make wonderful gifts for any occasion.

With a wide selection of styles — including animals, travel, religion, sports and trends — their necklaces, bracelets and earrings make it easy to find the perfect pieces to commemorate a special event or showcase a girl’s interest in a beautiful way.
