Hygiene budget/allowance for teen
My teen is, like I’m sure most, super into Sephora, makeup, hair products, etc.
I saw that tiktok video where the mom gave her kid an allowance to get hygiene products. It got me thinking maybe this is something I could do with my teen.
I was thinking an allowance of $100/month for hygiene, makeup, hair items. This includes things like deodorant, shampoo, body wash, but also makeup, hair accessories etc.
I think it’s a good opportunity for her to understand the value of money, learn to shop sales, plan, but also be cognizant of how long products last.
Feedback? Does $100 seem reasonable?
We will always have the basic body wash, shampoo and conditioner in the shower as well. She would never go without.
Edit: I’m in Canada! So these amounts are in CAD. My daughter also has curly hair so needs a few more products.
Was thinking anything left over from the $100 she could keep for her savings
