What are the things in your collection that are low cost but amazing? (supermarket but also anywhere cheap, think less than $15)

my top 5 are probably:

- Garnier Hair Food (I prefer the papaya one) 
- soap and glory hand cream (yes it's Mecca  but it's like $5)
- Lux Evenly gorgeous scrub
- just about anything from Skinfood
- essence nail polishes

Essence eyeliner (the way I go through it the cheaper the better).
Hurraw Lipbalm
Can't remember the brand, but the nail files in the plastic case for $5 at the pharmacy. So good for carrying in your handbag.

Good topic. I can't think of many but I do love the Essense Lash Princess Mascara, the Elf lip scrub and the Wet n Wild Petalette eye shadow palette

This is making me want to go and buy all the suggested products! I love the brands Essence and Wet'n'wild. I've brought the clear brow/mascara gel from both brands multiple times, definitely my fav under $5 item. Also the gel liner by Essence that I can double up as an eyebrow pencil.

I second the papaya Garnier hair food, that stuff is amazing and smells so good! I also love Maybelline baby lips lip balm (cheapest at Pak N Save and so nourishing on chapped lips) and the thankyou line of scrubs and hand cream.

I recently had some really bad cracking on my heels, so painful! I found a cream called heel fast, it was $4.90 & is the best cream I have ever used on my heels. They are back to normal after 7 days of continued use. Highly recommend this cream!

I was about to start a topic then figured I should check to see if it's been done before, and of course you girls are on to it so of course it has ...

Our naill buffer has been worn to the point where it is useless for anything except a quick buff. Went to buy one at a department store and they can be expensive! But I'm sure you get what you pay for.

However ...

Was in at Look Sharp and found some that are just a couple of dollars and have seven levels of grit. They work fine to the point that we went back for more so there's one in the office, the lounge, the bedroom and of course on the dining room table, as you do. 

I don't expect them to last forever but so far so good.
I will love to try the Garnier food hair products see if I can see a difference in my hair. 

I will look out for the papaya one. Can't wait!! Thank you
