Okay, so I'm about to blow $120 on makeup but I'm not exactly sure if some of these items are worth it. The products are:
-Makeup Forever 5 Camoflauge Cream Palette ($38)
-Cover FX Illuminating Setting Powder ($10)
-Bare Minerals Try.Believe.Love.Kit - Kit comes with Original SPF 15 Foundation, Matte SPF 15 Foundation, Mineral Veil Finishing Powder in Original, Multi-tasking SPF 20 Concealer, Mini Full Flawless Face Brush, Mini Concealer Brush ($20)
-Lorac Pro Palette - it also comes with an eye primer ($42)
-Benefit's BADgal lash Mascara - in the mini size ($10)
Please give me feedback on ANY of these products if you know anything about them!

Most definitely get the Lorac Pro!
But if you have both the naked 1 & 2 I wouldn't touch it unless you REALLY wanted to, even though its far more pigmented than the naked palettes.
Coverfx is a great brand! And Bareminerals doesn't really ever disappoint and I love their products!
You can get lots of concealer palettes online that will probably be better and cheaper than MU Forever. And if you're getting a concealer just for the sake of concealing and not contouring then I'd ditch it but because the BM concealer is really nice and smooth and you can build it up.

The BadGal lash is good. Actually, pretty amazing. It does everything it says it does, works like a charm, stays on all day, super dark, very voluminous lashes. I have no experience with the Lorac Pro, but I know the primer is good, and people rave about the shadows :)

No! The high end junk is made by the same people as drugstore.

I would say yes to the bare minerals kit (I'm wearing it right now and it covers so beautifully) and to the lorac pro palette. Must haves!

Even though that's true, they're also often better because they can be produced more expensively. In lower end brands they often cut corners by adding less pigment and using lower quality ingredients which can cause adverse reactions and generally won't be as good. That's why people pay money for more expensive stuff, it's absolutely better, higher quality product. The phrase "you get what you pay for" comes to mind.

Definitely agree with Hannah about quality of products. Many people don't believe that high end products are worth it, and hey, sometimes it's true. But for the most part, you get what you pay for. Not just in product quality but also packaging quality. No one wants an eyeshadow palette or blush that you can break just from a small drop lol.
Aside from that!
MUFE concealer palette, mm not a bad choice BUT you can defiantly get others for cheaper, especially if you don't think you'll use all of the colors up. You don't want the product to go bad and you've only really used one or two of the colors.
Cover FX is great with powders actually lol. I've had good luck with them, so I'd say yes.
Bare Minerals has awesome sets!! You get sample sizes for the most part but they're still great and a convenient way of trying things.
Lorac Pro - one word: YES. The shadows are creamy, color payoff is incredible, and longevity is impressive. It's a slim palette with all the matte, shimmer, and satin colors you'd pretty much need. This being said, there are a lot of basic colors I'm this palette, so if you have other palettes with similar colors, it can be skipped. That's why I didn't get it at first. But hesitation aside, I used my ulta 20% off discount and got it haha! And I absolutely love it. I have all the naked palettes, mac eyeshadows, too faced, stilla, and I still reach for this constantly for colors to use.
Benefit mascaras are very impressive. Bad gal was my first mascara and I've continued to buy it! It just makes your lashes look so full and black and it doesn't clump on me.
Hope you love your new buys!

Bad gal was my first mascara too! I still love it. I haven't tried the rest but the lorac pro seemed awesome in sephora, I wanted to buy it but they sold out.
