If you're looking for cheap, Ardell and Elise are my favorites. Red Cherry isn't too bad either, but their packaging is a bit flimsy and makes it difficult to store them after one use.
I would suggest having a few cheap lashes and 1 or 2 pairs of Shu Uemura. The soft cross is an absolute classic and smokey gives a good dramatic look without being too fake.
If you're going for a price that's between the two, Mufe has many lashes for $15. Although most of their lashes are more dramatic (think cirque du soleil, these are actually the lashes they use) they're well constructed and are higher quality than elise and red cherry.
Just remember when applying, let the glue set a tiny bit so it doesn't get everywhere.
