11 Top-Rated Beauty Products Under $15 That Are ~Thriving~ On Amazon RN

When it comes to beauty products, the world is your oyster. There are thousands upon thousands of products for practically any beauty need or desire, but of course, there’s a catch. 

Quality products come at a certain price point, and while I love major brands like Tarte or NARS, they also just make my wallet cry. That’s why I love to scour through the pits of Amazon to find high-quality beauty products that are also at a decent price. Often the products come with hundreds of customer reviews, so I know I’ll feel good about my purchase after some in-depth research.  

But, I’ve hooked you up with some of the top-rated beauty products on Amazon that won’t make you feel like you’ve wasted your hard-earned money away.

In a world of $200 skin care products, this gem costs about $10 and comes in a one-pound tub.

The more you know. You can add apple cider vinegar or water to it, leave it on your face for five to 20 minutes, and then rinse it off.

BS-MALL Makeup Brush Set 

My philosophy is that you can never have too many makeup brushes. That’s why I love to find inexpensive, but still high-quality brushes like BS-MALL on Amazon. The set comes with five basic kabuki brushes and nine pieces of eyeshadow brushes. They’re soft to the touch, and dense and shaped well so that you can apply your foundation or eyeshadow on easily. Also, according to multiple reviews, the bristles don’t fall out.

NYX Professional Makeup Setting Spray, Matte Finish 

My day would be incomplete without a good setting spray. It’s that important to a (or my) makeup routine. And I’m not the only one who feels this way. 

“This spray is everything! Like, oh my gosh. I notice the difference if I forgot to spray this on. I’ve walked through the humid city of New Orleans in the middle of July and my makeup stayed on from the time I got to work and was mostly still there by the time I got home, which was nine hours later. I can’t rave enough about this, and I’m very picky when it comes to makeup,” missyj95 said.

NYX’s Matte Finish setting spray won’t turn your makeup into a greasy or oily mess.
