Pretty good article. I pretty much always shop at drugstores or dollar stores for my products like this and you would be amazed at the quality of a lot of these if you have not tried them. I am really surprised that Suave didnt make the list, nor Noxzema, which has been a tried and true product for years with great pricing. My new favorite hairspray for this month is Got to Be with cashmere, I use the mousse and the hairspray both and my hair feels amazing after I use them. Super lightweight and hubby isn't afraid to runhis fingers thru my hair when I use it. He said its the only hairspray i've ever used that he likes. Sounds like the John Frieda one is similar so I may have to try it as well. Wet n Wild eye shadow is great for the price as well. And like another reviewer said, ponds cold cream is great to use nightly for young skin! Not to mention for the mommies out there it makes great face paint for the kids for halloween or plays, and all that is needed to remove it is more cold cream!

I love the Revlon Colorstay Foundation. I almost gave up on wearing foundation because of my oily skin. I tried it and I loved it. @ladykristinn, maybe a darker powder closer to your skin tone worn over the foundation to set it might counteract the whitecast? IJS... don't know your skin tone but I wear "toast" and I get compliments about my face daily now.

Basis cleanser is awesome & smells FRESH! It's been ages since I've used it and had moved on to other brands because I like trying new things. However, reading this article now, after many years of experience with other much more expensive cleansers, reminds me how how "basic"ally wonderful Basis is! It leaves your skin feeling fresh and CLEAN (not overly dry, but remember to moisturize!).
