Recipes of Grandma Agafia is a Russian-made line that is super cheap on Amazon. They do creams, serums, shampoos, oils, etc. The focus is on natural ingredients - with products supposedly inspired by original formulations by a Siberian herbalist Agafia. Each product comes with an insert with DIY recipes (in Russian) and a guarantee that the product contains silver ions (which have questionable skincare value). For the price (some in the range of 3-5 bucks), I do not expect anything amazing - but there are a few antioxidants and some carry 98% organic labels, though I haven't looked into the certifying agencies.
The products are stably-packaged and some smell absolutely amazing if you like herbal scents (the middle one for hands in particular) and do the job well enough. The face creams (for normal skin on the left, for oily skin on the right) are both very lightweight, but the oily one smells a bit alcoholic.
They also have budget hair masks, which work well and a few antioxidant serums which contain uncommon oils (marigold oil and prickly pear?).
