The Under-$15 Beauty Products Celebrities Actually Wore To The VMAs

If you tuned in to the VMAs last night, you probably have lingering thoughts on the show as a whole. Maybe you're giving your co-workers who didn't watch the CliffNotes, touching on the host and his sad one-liners, Camila Cabello's sensual "Señorita" performance with Shawn Mendes, and Lizzo's beehive hairdo that stole the red carpet.

In fact, if the topic turns to the glam — hair, makeup, manicures, and the like — you can surprise everyone when you tell them that most of the night's biggest stars actually wore cheap beauty products, like nail polish, hairspray, and eyeshadow palettes you'd find at the drugstore.

From Camila Cabello's French manicure courtesy of Essie Marshmallow, to Gigi Hadid's date-night look made possible by an $11 Maybelline eyeshadow palette, scroll through for the best VMAs looks — and the Target and Walmart buys that made them happen.
