The colors in the collection are deeply saturated, and many of them are a tad edgy, yet still sophisticated and pretty. Whether or not your teen is a <em>Hunger Games</em> fan, this themed collection of six mini bottles is an especially nice introduction to the brand, since it covers a wide range of bases, from a creamy lavender to a deep, glimmery teal. Butter polishes are also free of formaldehyde and parabens, and they’re not tested on animals.

target="_blank">The Newlywed Game</a></em>—with friends (instead of couples) pairing up and competing to see how well they know one another. The game comes with six dry-erase boards and markers. And it has a stack of cards with 250 questions, ranging from probing ones (“Who’s my celebrity crush?”; “What’s my least favorite place I’ve ever traveled to?”) to hypothetical questions (“What’s the first thing I would buy if I won the lottery?”; “Who would I call if I had to get rid of a dead body?”). Meant for players who are 14 and older, the game doles out some queries that may not apply to young teens (“How many speeding tickets have I received?” Me: “The answer better be none!”), but the rest should spark some good-natured fun.</p><p class="alignright"><em>—Ellen Lee</em></p></div></section><section class="b6d81848 d47f7b03" id="a-colorful-carryall"><h2 class="e823fba7"

Players are presented with an unsolved murder or heist, and they work with their friends (or solo) to determine who committed the crime, which weapons were used, and why. Each scenario is a story, with a full cast of characters and motives, and navigating one of them is much like traversing a choose-your-own-adventure book. Because of this game’s dark nature—there are occasional references to drugs, murder, and sex—it is recommended for teens and not younger kids, said <a href="http://www.brianmayer.games/" rel="noopener" target="_blank">Brian Mayer</a>, a gaming, learning, and library specialist in New York. Note that part of the experience involves stepping into a 3D crime scene using virtual reality.

The plug-in mirror includes nine LED lights that change from cool to warm to natural light with the touch of the screen, and it stays cool to the touch. The entire mirror—a bit larger than the average binder—rotates 360 degrees so teens can perfect their every angle. It’s strictly for young eyes, however, as it doesn’t have a magnifying feature.</p><p class="alignright"><em>—Samantha Schoech</em></p></div></section><section class="b6d81848 d47f7b03"

for ages 18 and up) and is one of our favorite <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/wirecutter/reviews/lego-botanical-kits/#no-tiny-scissors-required-lego-bonsai-tree-10281">botanical Lego sets</a>. After I selected it as a gift for my older son’s birthday, it successfully rekindled an obsession with Lego that had waned a couple of years earlier, and this little tree is now proudly displayed in our living room. The tree is just 7 inches high, including the traditional pedestal it sits upon. But the detail is lovely, down to the cherry blossom leaves that—as we discovered upon close study—are actually diminutive Lego frogs. We loved that the set comes with a second set of leaves, in case you want to change the color scheme seasonally.

It offers a 4K camera for taking impressive aerial photos and videos, as well as a 38-minute battery life. Its compact, lightweight build slides just under <a href="https://content.dji.com/why-did-dji-create-a-249-gram-drone/" rel="noopener" target="_blank">the FAA’s 250-gram limit</a>. While it doesn’t have an obstacle-avoidance sensor like higher priced drones, it does come with other handy features, such as image and flight stabilization and smart flight modes so it can fly on its own. One little tip: We’ve seen a couple of drones get stuck in the trees in our neighborhood during post-holiday flights, so you may want to encourage your teen to practice in a wide-open space first.</p><p class="alignright">—<em>Ellen Lee</em></p></div></section><section class="b6d81848 d47f7b03" id="background-check"><h2 class="e823fba7" aria-controls="background-check-panel"

(our guide to the <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/wirecutter/reviews/best-dna-test/">best DNA testing kit</a> provides perspective on ethical and privacy issues related to DNA testing). With AncestryDNA’s more than 18 million customers—the largest of the DNA databases—there’s a chance to discover distant relations. The process is fairly straightforward. Simply mail in a saliva sample, and within a few weeks results are delivered online, including ethnicity estimates and potential relatives. From there, it’s up to an intrepid teen to track down more clues and delve deeper into their family history.</p><p class="alignright"><em>—Ellen Lee</em></p><div><div class="ff31b4af"
