Well I would totally recommend elf new blush palettes I have swatches of the dark palette on my profile. And for bronzers an eye liner I would recommend Milani. Coastal scents for brushes the 22 piece set hass everything you need except the fluffy pro blending fluff brush I just pick up at least two of those.

The Garnier BB cream is good quality and low cost :)
For eyeliner (liquid or pencil) I like Rimmel :)

For bb cream I'd suggest maybelline or garnier brand products. Elf has cheap but still good liquid eyeliner, I've never tried their pencils. Elf also has low priced brushes but from my experience they're horrible quality. Bhcosmetics is a bit more expensive but their brushes are great. You can also look at mymakebrushset they have some sets for good prices.

I just started using NYC sunny bronzer, and I really like it! It's completely matte, and has a pretty neutral undertone so it looks very natural on most skin tones.
As for eyeliner, I love the Maybelline gel liner. 😊

I know a few people on here recommended Lumene BB Cream (I think they said it was 12 dollars), Loreal True Match is a nice versatile foundation that you could sheer down for school and build up for after school. Wet and Wild do nice quality eyeshadows. I really like Rimmel's eyeliners, but Catrice and Essence do some nice ones too.
For inexpensive brushes I really love my Bdellium. Only critisim I have is to buy the flat top kabuki or whatever foundation brush you want to use with natural hairs because I have synthetic and it really sucks up all the product. If you're heavyhanded that might be a good feature though haha

BB Cream: NYC Smooth Skin Parfait, Garnier BB, or Maybelliene Dream Fresh

Lipstick: Rimmel London: Great colors, good formula, fantastic pigmentation also Revlon Just Bitten Kissable Lip Balms are moisturizing and give a more satin finish with very nice pigmentation. It applies like a balm but stays like a stain!

Foundation: Maybelline Dream Smooth Mousse, Loreal product that goes from liquid to powder finish, or Covergirl 3 in 1; oldie but goodie.

Eye Makeup: Teh new Maybelline nude palette is great to invest in, Wet and Wild trios, or the Almay trio for your specific eye color. I like these trios because there are lots of choices, great pigmentation, and it gives you an entire eye look without searching for the right shadows.

Mascara: Maybelline the falsies Big Eyes, Maybelline The Rocket, or Covergirl Clump Crusher.

Concealer: Maybelline Age Rewind, Elf stick concealer, or Maybelline Coverstick. The age rewind works best for undereyes and coverstick comes in green for correcting redness.

Brushes: Elf has single brushes that you can get OR online you can order their brush sets. They are super affordable, easy to wash, very soft, don't shed, and are easy to use. I also recommend getting a dupe beauty blender for specific kinds of products, but the BB is so expensive and other sponges work just as well.

Other suggestions:
ELF liquid eyeliner: absolutely awesome and affordable, comes also in glitter
NYX Butter Gloss: Not super sticky and they last long; lots of colors.
NYX Soft Matte Lips Creams: awesome pigmentation and a true matte finish
Pixie Bronzer: Subtly Sunkissed is great for a lot of skintones; though it does have glitter...

Elf for blush: they have a range of colors and I feel they are a dupe for Nars
For primer Pixie: Their flawless primer is really nice and smooth.
Elf Eyelid Primer: Great formula, applies smoothly, stops creasing
Maybelline Babylips: Great for the times you don't want a lot of color and gives moisture

That's everything I can think off the top of my head right now! Hope it helps!
