    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.

      Every five seconds, another tube of Laura Mercier Tinted Moisturizer is sold somewhere in the world. And at $43 a pop, that's a lot of moolah being spent on flawless skin. Garnier's BB Cream evens skin tone in a similar way, and adds extra moisture to your skin for a quarter of the price of LM's. Looks like someone has some competition.
