If you want to tell me about a beauty product, I’m listening. If you want to tell me about a beauty product that works and is inexpensive, chances are, I’m buying! I am all about investing in quality products, especially when it comes to your beauty and health. However, I think we hold price and brand to a higher standard when there are a plethora of beauty finds that work well and won’t break the bank. For that reason, I’m bringing you my beauty finds that I use personally, and they’re all under $10!
1. Essie Nail Polish – $8
My love and affection for Essie Nail Polish is no secret, whatsoever. Essie continues to hold my heart for the simple fact of their fabulous colors and quality consistency. The colors are rich and saturated with a polish formula that dries evenly and smoothly. You can’t go wrong with this choice.
2. EOS Lip Balm – $3
I did a review on EOS earlier this year and this stuff still holds a spot in my beauty cabinet to date. Naturally made and organic, this lip balm makes a wonderful prep to moisturize lips before applying lipstick or even lipgloss.
3. Aussie Moist Conditioner – $3
Again, this is no secret why I love this conditioner (See here). This conditioner is moisturizing and adds a lot of slip to the hair. Whether you’re curly or straight, this conditioner is definitely a contender when it comes to getting your hair nice and moist.
4. Mario Badescu Rose Water – $7
I love rose water! It’s smells heavenly and is a great way to refresh and moisturize the face and hair throughout the day.
5. Maybelline Color Sensational Lipstick – $7
I now own five different shades of this brand’s lipstick and they all have never failed me. I love the line and all of the 68 different shades to choose from. The formula is smooth, pigmented, and moisturizing for your lips.
6. NYX Mega Shine Lip Gloss – $5.50
These glosses are a life saver whenever I need some color on my lips, without using a lipstick, but pigmented enough to show up. These glosses play no games. They come in a ton of cute colors and I keep at least one on me, just in case I want to pep up my look in the middle of the day.
7. ELF Cream Eyeliner – $3
There’s something about getting your eyeliner out of a cute glass pot, but it’s something else when you have to pay a ridiculous amount of money for it. The Eyes, Lips, Face brand has done a superb job with providing girls quality products for such a surprisingly low price. This eyeliner comes in 11 different colors and applies smooth and creamy.
8. Clean & Clear Makeup Dissolving Wipes – $7
Sometimes even the lightest makeup application can feel like you need a jackhammer and chisel to get it off. Last thing I want to do is wash my face for 7 hours trying to get all of it off. Well, no fear. These wipes are a fantastic way to remove your makeup prior to washing your face.
9. Purpose Face Cleanser – $5.99
This wash is my go-to wash to use when removing my makeup. It’s super gentle on my sensitive skin and works very well on keeping my face clean without leaving it stripped and dry.
10. Nivea Crème 1 oz. – 99¢
Nothing bothers me more than having dry hands after washing my hands throughout the day. This little tin can fits nicely in my purse’s toiletry bag (used to hold small things like glosses, travel perfume, etc.). The lotion itself is super creamy, so it doesn’t take much to get the job done.

I have tried all of the products except Aussie and the Elf Eye Liner. I look forward to trying those out as well.
@11zeaky Go for it! All of these are great finds!
