I would like to preface this by saying this is what I would do for me personally knowing what I know now about my own skin. If I were making suggestions for someone else I think this list would be very very different.
Under $50:
Heimish All Clean Balm [$17]
CeraVe Daily Moisturizing Lotion [$11]
CeraVe Healing Ointment [$9]
Australian Gold Tinted Sunscreen [$13]
This particular budget was actually a lot harder than I thought it was going to be. I prioritized Sunscreen first, because that is an important product to me and it is a product that was difficult to find something I was happy using every day. I picked the cleanser next because I knew it was going to be pricey at this budget. I really think oil cleansing has done wonders for my skin. I especially like balms. I find them much easier to use. I occasionally like to use a straight oil, but on a daily basis using something with an emulsifier is just more practical. In reality if I had to stick to this budget all the time, I would probably sub out the Heimish for an emulsifying cleansing oil like Kose or the Simple one. I just haven't used either of those yet, I wasn't comfortable substituting that for the sake of this exercise.
I don't think I would be totally happy with this routine long term. It's not as hydrating as I tend towards and it doesn't have any actives. The CeraVe lotion is nice, but I wouldn't LOVE using it. I picked this over the CeraVe cream because I find that the cream does not actually sink into my skin. It's nice over other thinner formulas, but it tugs at my skin uncomfortably if used on its own.
Under $100
Heimish All Clean Balm [$17]
Stridex Maximum Acne Medication Pads [$4]
Dear, Klairs Supple Proparation Facial Toner [$22]
Hada Labo Gokujun Premium Hyaluronic Solution [$15]
Holika Holika Skin and Good Cera Super Cream [$17] (this is discontinued, but as long as it's $17 at Amazon or CVS where I bought it I will probably keep using it)

CeraVe Healing Ointment [$3] [Travel Size]
Australian Gold Tinted Sunscreen [$13]
TBH this is making me realize how much money I actually spend on my routine. GEEZ I DIDN'T NEED THIS TODAY. Essentially I just took out the CeraVe lotion and added my HG Hydrating/Moisturizing Layers. The Klairs seems like so much of a splurge here, but it really truly is one of my favorite products to use. It is very hydrating and soothing to me. I also added the Stridex because it's cheap, effective, easy to use and this is one active I know I can tolerate if I keep up my hydration/moisturization.
I think the CeraVe Healing Ointment is a true workhorse and I would never be with out it, BUT I don't actually use very much of it. I mean I bought my first 3 oz. tube 9 months ago and I don't think I've even used half of it. With the smaller budget it makes more sense to get a bigger tube because it can be SUCH a multitasker, but since I have a few more items in the way of "moisturizing" here, I would probably purchase a very small tube of the ointment (mostly for my lips and the corners of my nose) and also incorporate Jojoba Oil. I love Jojoba for cleansing and for mixing into other products. My very chapped lips also DRINK UP oils like no one's business.
I am ashamed to say this routine is still short of some things I use pretty frequently, but I would still be happy with it. It has everything I actually need.
Under $200:
Heimish All Clean Balm [$17]
La Roche-Posay Toleriane Hydrating Gentle Cleanser [$15]
Stridex Maximum Acne Medication Pads [$4]
Stratia Soft Touch AHA [$14]
Dear, Klairs Supple Proparation Facial Toner [$22]
Hada Labo Gokujun Premium Hyaluronic Solution [$15]
Stratia Rewind [$16]
Stratia Liquid Gold [$24]
Holika Holika Skin and Good Cera Super Cream [$17]
Jojoba Oil [$8 @ Trader Joe's]
La Roche-Posay Cicaplast Baume B5 Soothing Repairing Balm [$15]
CeraVe Healing Ointment [$3] [Travel Size]
Raw Honey [$7ish]
Queen Helene Mint Julep Mask [$5]
Australian Gold Tinted Sunscreen [$13]
Again these all the same products as before. The three additions I use frequently are the LRP B5, Stratia Liquid Gold, and Stratia Rewind. The Raw Honey and the Queen Helene are masks that I know work for me and are fun to use. I very rarely use the honey buy itself, but it is lovely as a mask mixed with the Klairs (thanks to u/LGBTQBBQ for that tip). I've also included the Stratia Soft Touch here because it is on my list to try. I'm pretty sensitive to actives and I think a 10% Mandelic is something I could handle.
I actually really enjoyed having to think about my routine like this. I really thought I had paired down my routine quite a bit and I suppose I have, but even the $200 budget would not be enough to repurchase everything I use on a monthly basis. This (mostly) doesn't even include things I want to try or things I have around just in case or just because. Realistically I would have a couple more wash off masks, and eye cream (even though it is not at all necessary imo), at least one other kind of sunscreen, and maybe one or two other moisturizers.
But I guess I'm that kind of extra bitch.
...and like its a hobby right? It's ok to spend money on a hobby.
At least that is what I'll tell myself.
