Oddly enough most of the Equate skin care stuff from wal mart. I've been using their antiwrinkle creams and they work!!! :O

Paula'Choice products are good quality and inexpensive.You can order them at www.cosmeticscop.com. I especially like the cleansers, my favourite is Skin Recovery Cleanser. Removes heavy makeup easily.
Paula Begoun is the author and publisher of several best-selling books on the beauty industry, including several editions of Don't Go to the Cosmetics Counter Without Me, Blue Eyeshadow Should Be Illegal, The Beauty Bible, and Don't Go Shopping for Hair-Care Products Without Me.
Totally agree- Plus an Australian brand named Sukin(http://www.sukinorganics.com/ beautiful stuff) and am currnetly trying MooGo products.

Clairol colourseal gloss... I love this stuff. £1 for a small tube. It lasts three washes, with the idea it's a once a week treatment (but I use it daily).
Perfume oils. I buy them on eBay and they are basically just cheap dupes of perfumes, but they are FABULOUS, and smell perfect. £2 for 3ml which lasts ages. I spend a fortune on 'real' perfume and then tried these for work and I'm a convert.

I love this mascara! The reviewers on amazon seem to disagree, but it is my favorite. I really don't have much to work with in the lash department and this stuff makes my lashes so full.

I am after a good serum for around my eyes , that doesn't mean I have to remortgage my house, any recommendations? :)
Also, cheap stuff!
Yay for petroleum jelly (I don't use the actual Vaseline brand because I don't like their ethics or lack of them!)
St Moriz fake tan-about £3 that stuff, it can be messy but then I've had more expensive fake tans that are just as messy!
I use food flavourings in my drier instead of dryer sheets-so I have almond or chocolate scented clothes!
Baking soda to wash my hair-instead of shampoo.
I wear a lot of bright/funky eye make up-and instead of paying for expensive brands I go to cheap shops -in the UK 'PoundWorld' sells funky coloured eyeshadows for, funnily enough £1. I go through them so fast and don't always use all the colours in the palette so resent paying more for them.
Ebay for cheap stripper rompers and dresses.
Supermarket brands for other eyeshadows and make up.
Individual false eyelashes from ebay-£12 for three boxes.

Totally NOT related to beauty products, but last week I bought a 3 set of G-strings for only $2.
On top of that, someone complimented how nice they were.
HAH!
