Favorite Budget Products

I like high end products from time to time, but what I like even better is some budget steals that do the trick. These are all under $10 but have been working out pretty great for me so far! They're not the best of the best in each category but I've been pretty pleased with them and will continue to repurchase.


  1. Acure Dry Shampoo - This brand is awesome if you care about organic ingredients and cruelty free products. I'm also currently using their shampoo. This stuff comes in a glorified shaker style container so you have to sprinkle it in your hair or on your hand. I just sprinkle it on my hand and work it through my hair. Very pleasant stuff and is super easy to use. 
  2. NYX Retractable Eyeliner - Just recently I've gotten into eyeliners, as I had no idea how to work them before. I find that retractable ones are easier for me to use so I decided to go with this no frills option. It applies ok, not super smooth and not super bumpy. Definitely not the best of the best when it comes to eyeliners, but it claims to be waterproof and is easy to remove with my makeup remover at the end of the day so there isn't much more that I could ask for.
  3. Not Your Mother's Beach Babe Texturizing Spray - This stuff smells amazing, like you're on a tropical beach drinking a piña colada. It works well too, my hair isn't as super frizzy as it would normally be and has a decent amount of volume. I've never come across a super effective salt spray and I like to use it for pleasant smell and to add a bit of bounce. 
  4. St. Ives Fresh Skin Apricot Scrub - This is an oldie but a goodie. I've repurchased it numerous times and it works great. It is on the rougher side so I use it a couple of times a week but it smells amazing and the price of it really can't be beat. 
  5. Alba Botanica Very Emollient Body Lotion - I'm a fan of body lotions with a pump because if you get a big enough jug of it you won't have to repurchase it for a while. This stuff has been great, and you can choose from scented and unscented versions. My skin tends to be on the dryer side and this stuff does the trick in keeping it moisturized.
