So this post has been a bit delayed. My round 2 empties are from June 27th and here it is already November 2nd! So I have a huge bag of empties to review as well as update my project pan (which is also a post I need to make).
So this round of empties were some of my favorite items, new favorites, and new items I'm on the fence about.

I've been using this product for quite some time now. It is one of my favorite hairsprays because it is a very natural hold. My only complaint with this is sometimes it comes out a bit powdery on the hair if you use too much.
This was a new item I picked up. I was trying to find a toner that was reasonable and hopefully wouldn't irritate my skin. My skin has never looked better. I've been using it in the morning after I wash my face and in the evening after I take off all my makeup and wash my face. The scent is not particularly rose smelling - but doesn't smell overly medicinal. But I've actually always liked the smell of witch hazel. I don't seem to break out nearly as much as I used to. I'm only breaking out during that fun time of the month. I've already repurchased this and it's going to be a staple in my routine.
I've used both of these for awhile and I honestly don't see too much of a difference between them - but they definitely keep my makeup on all day! Definitely a staple on my vanity and I definitely can see the difference when I forget to use this. And bonus - it doesn't make me break out.
I have long been searching for a make-up remover that doesn't take my eyelashes off when I remove my mascara. Alas, while this is pretty awesome at removing my eyeshadow - it still doesn't remove my eyeliner or my mascara off any better than more reasonably priced makeup removers.
Another remover that I tried to find my holy grail makeup remover. While this one is more mid-range in price - it did well removing my eyeshadow - but still I struggled with removing my liner and mascara. The search continues!
I don't remember where I got this sample anymore but it did work well to clean my sponges. I didn't use it on any Beauty Blenders - as all I have are the Real Techniques sponges. It sudsed up nicely and cleaned the foundation really well. My only thing I didn't like about it was that it had a rather off-putting scent. It wasn't soapy smelling...just rather chemically.
But overall - I'm really enjoying trying to use things up and track the things I do use up. It's definitely satisfying to see what I've used up!
