sometimes you can never say the right thing to them...when my daughter was that age and have BF issues....i usually made an appt. for both of us to have pedicures/manicures and then a trip to her favorite restaurant....(something about Olive Garden pasta and the giant salads)....if i thought it was a more serious funk, I suggested the make-up counter at Nordstrom for her favorite line of Origins....I agree, money well spent if she felt perked up....and of course swallowing my tongue because they might be back together next week...
