    The Best Beauty Products for Every Budget

    By Taylor Barringer & Megan McIntyre, Refinery29

    Recently, it seems like there's been a lot of attention paid to certain individuals' bank accounts. While we're just as curious as the rest of the world to see what Mitt Romney has in his coffers, we're far more interested in the spending of the dolla dolla bills in our own - particularly on beauty products.

    But, since finding great budget beauty products can be kind of a crapshoot, we did you a solid and scoped out the best of the bunch. And, because we know not every bank account is created equal (what's up, 1%!), we've included some great splurge buys, too. Read on to see the high-end products we stock up on when we're feeling flush and the wallet-friendly dopplegangers we turn to when our checkbook is running on fumes.

      MAC's Studio Fix has been a cult classic for as long as we can remember, but CoverGirl is a close second in the full-coverage, silky powder-foundation category. And, for almost a quarter of the cost of MAC, we think we know which one our wallet prefers.

      CoverGirl Clean Pressed Powder, $5.99, available at P&G eStore; MAC Studio Fix Powder Plus Foundation, $27, available at MAC.
