Info about me:
I have normal to dry skin, no acne problems but have black heads on my nose. I use a pretty full face of makeup, med/full coverage foundation, loads of liner and mascara, lip products... the whole shebang most days.

I am looking for a pretty good list of items that are good quality, without breaking my bank. Probably $10-20 per item, but if you have a pricey holy grail item feel free to share!

I know for sure I'll be purchasing:
Eye makeup/regular makeup remover
Facial cleanser
Toner
Eye area moisturizer
Face moisturizer
(serums and heavy duty night creams please!)
Face exfoliator
Facial mask

I'm also looking for body exfoliators and moisturizers.
Thanks gals!

Skincare. com says about serums :
While facial serums can give you added moisture, the main reason you'd want to use a facial serum is to get added nutrients into deeper layers of your skin that a regular moisturizer is not able to reach. You can get many types of serums such as anti-aging serums, skin brightening serums and even acne preventative serums. You apply the serum after your toner and before your moisturizer.

The brands botanicals and boots have pretty good skincare products that are not too pricey.
