Budget lavalier mics and headphones questions

I'm looking, for a friend, for 2 budget lavalier mics. They are intended for consumer use and consumer sound quality is good enough, provided the sound is fairly clear, though it doesn't have to be natural, nor 'true to life' sounding.
One mic is a conventional, over the clothing clip mic.
The second is 'Madona' style one.
Also, looking for budget, decent headphones.
If there is a decent budget headset which includes decent earphones and decent mic, all the better.
 
I just bought the Audio Technica ATR 3350 to replace my far too expensive broken Rode lavalier. Cheap and has good reviews: audio-technica atr-3350

And I am very happy with my Audio Technica ATH m50x headphone.
 
I needed a third headset for a shoot and it didn't have to be great, so I tried a $15 Monoprice headset. It is remarkably decent. It comes with two cables. One cable includes a microphone. What I like about it is that the cable plugs into the headset with a 3.5mm plug. If you don't like the cables they supply, or if they break, you just get another cable. The earmuffs really isolate the wearer from ambient sound. But I do find the earmuff a bit small. Maybe I have big ears. https://www.monoprice.com/product?p_id=8323
