Cost-effective 1 pack a day vs. high-end product twice a month

There was a time when doing a face mask a day was all the rage.

But I'm not sure which one is more effective.

Would it be better to buy a cost-effective product and take care of it every day?

Or would it be better to buy expensive, high-quality products and use them intensively two or three times a month?

I know it depends on skin type, but generally speaking, I’d like to know which method is more helpful for skin care.
