Ok. Here's a fun question.. Pretend I gave you 75$ and said, "Please go to the drugstore and buy what YOU think is the best products for hair, skin and facial cleansing" Tell me what you would buy.

Hair:

~Shampoo

~Conditioner

~Hair Spray

Skin

~soap/wash

~moisturizer

Face

~cleanser

~moisturizer

 
I guess I can try this... but the price point may be hard (unless there are sales! I love sales!).

Hair:

~Shampoo- Garnier Fructis (low price, and according to my cosmetology student co-worker- it's salon quality) and personally I go with long and strong, or sleek and shine

~Conditioner- The one that goes with the shampoo (and then some leave in conditioner if there's enough money left)

~Hair Spray-meh, I don't do hairspray... ever. But just for kicks I'd go for good old aquanet- the tried and true hair plaster spray.

Skin

~soap/wash- I like caress- one of the glowy/shimmery ones with a good scent

~moisturizer- I don't tend to use body lotion much- but I like the special jergens ones (firming/shave minimizing/etc)

Face

~cleanser-My 'HG' cleansing routine (been using it for about 4 years) is step 1 st Ives apricot scrub (I prefer the medicated one for acne, but the normal one is good if you don't have that problem) and step 2 is neutrogena deep clean cream cleanser

~moisturizer- I never really had a regular moisturizer, I'd use whatever I had available- but as of late the Mary Kay timewise one is awesome (comes in normal to dry and combo to oily I believe). *Edit- oops, just noticed it was all supposed to be drugstore (Stupid me)... I have no moisturizer preference from the drugstore, so *insert any brand here*, though the budget includes the MK one.

retail prices from drugstore.com and marykay.com

shampoo-$3.99

Conditioner-$3.79 Optional leave in-$3.79

Hairspray- extra-super-uber-plaster hold- $2.69

Body wash- $5.79

Body lotion-$6.99

Face wash-St. Ives-$3.99 Nutrogena-$6.39

Moisturizer- $22.00 (Ouch! I got 4 off ebay for that price, though)

Grand Total- $59.42 -I do okay I guess!

 
Hair:

~Shampoo: I don't really care for drugstore shampoos, but I guess I'd pick the John Frieda Curling shampoo

~Conditioner: the John Frieda curling conditioner

~Hair Spray: John Freida curl defining spray

Skin

~soap/wash: Olay or Dove body was for dry/extremely dry skin (i don't have dry skin, but this way i don't have to moisturize)

~moisturizer: I don't use moisturizer, except maybe like, twice a year i'll use jergens healthy glow

Face

~cleanser: biore warming blackhead cleanser (or whatever it's called)

~moisturizer: either the biore mattifying moisturizer or dove day lotion w/ SPF 15
