gift help for sister living in australia

[breatheonbeat]

my little sister is interning in australia this summer... we are quite close and i wanted to get her something little as a gift.

it is literally on the other side of the world!

so guys-
if you are australian and have been to america, american and have been to australia, or even if you just know what to get little sisters, what are some gifts she might appreciate?

i was thinking i will probably get her something makeup related, perhaps a bronzer, but i wanted to see if you guys had any more specific things as well.

anything you can't get in australia? even little things like snacks and stuff, though i might mail that to her later on. anything a traveller might like? i might grab her a few of the tiny mac items for her travel stuff.

any help is appreciated; i hope this makes sense!!

You can find an online store based out of Australia that you can order her stuff directly there.. Like a cool outfit or new sunnies .. Stuff for their hair how old is she?

she's 21! Sunglasses are the only thing i won't get her because she works at sunglass hut and has quite an enviable collection of high end ones that she gets for cheap or free from work lol.

Australian checking in....it's not that you can't get stuff here, it's just crazy expensive.

Depending on where she's headed most capital cities have stores with american candy and soda and other junk food (heck we have costco here) so I'd skip that. But if I were her I'd love travel minis or just backups of favourite products if she's into mid- to high- end brands - inc good 50+ sunscreen (sheshido has a great 50+ but is really pricey here)
