I am skipping this month as well:( nothing was jumping out at me to say pick me once! I guess i get to save money this time:) i hope next time is more things for me:) let me know what you ladies pick!

 
Since they are supposed to give me a credit from a failed code I went ahead and got it this quarter. To be honest, I probably would have got this quarter even without the credit. I did get some duplicates of what I picked last quarter but there is no way I could get all of them for the price (even better if they apply my discount) - I grabbed both Nailtiques Sets, Alpha Hydroxy Cream, Exuviance Rejuvenating Treatment Masque, Nick Chavez Horsetail Root Lifting Spray & Shampoo, NeoStrata and Snowberry Eye Creams.

I like to get the non-makeup/treatment products since they are so expensive compared to a lipstick.

 
Well, I went ahead and ordered for the quarter.
 

I got a second 3 Lab M cream - eventually I will get around to trying it out. lol

The Nailtiques red polish and larger forumla 2 - I love formula 2

A second Jane Iredale lip color - I loved it too much, really this was the perfect color!

The new lip plumper - I have a strange fascination with lip plumpers

the SPF 40 for face - I actually really needed something like this

Guinot Gommage Biologique - we'll see
Argan oil - I wanted a travel sized argan oil, I'll always use argan oil
mascara - to add to my mascara stash
 
I was on the fence, but I did the math and if I consider that I usually pay $10 for a mascara (deluxe sample size) and that the argan oil is about $5 worth (for the cheap brand I buy,) then that knocks down the remaining items to about $35.
 
ETA: Well crud, I just realized that the "argan oil" has argan oil in it, along with a bunch of other stuff including two silicones that cause build-up. Not cool. I have no idea what I am going to do with it, now.
 
Do you have to call to skip? Do they automatically charge you? Last quarter was my 1st and I don't want to order this quarter...

Can someone clarify how this whole seasonal thing works?  I just signed up with them last week and my box is shipping this week.  Would that count as the fall quarter?  Or would that still be Summer?  
I believe if you were able to pick from the new selection, you're included in the new season.  New members actually can order a few days before the rest of us can because you're allowed to order at any time and they always have a preview up a few days early.

Yes, you have to call in to skip.  They will automatically charge you when it reaches the deadline listed in your e-mail (in this case, Sept 25, 11:59pm PST) if you're not marked to skip this season.

If you choose to call in and skip, and then change your mind later (before or after the deadline), you can always just choose your items and complete your order, and they'll send it to you like normal.  You're just basically canceling the automatic charge if you don't order in time.

Good to know, thanks!

Same here! I'm pretty sure in skipping- but if anyone wants to PM me a code, I'd appreciate it so much!!

 
I just called and skipped! Very easy process! Products just weren't anything I needed right now! I like how fast and easy calling to skip was. I was very worried they would make It difficult:)

I agree! I would have skipped too but I won a free box through a blog giveaway.  Maybe they are saving the good stuff for the Christmas/Winter Season? It seemed like the summer season was full of full sized products and a good mix of things but eh!  I was hoping to see Stila again but that didnt happen

Was it beautypirate's?  and I agree! I was expecting more makeup, hopefully from stila and it ended up being things I would probably never use. So I rather save my money or see if anyone has a survey code for dermstore they don't need so I can maybe get the one or 2 items I really want to try.

 
My new job doesn't give me a whole lot of time on my hands to decide what I want to choose (seriously I just got home from a 2 hour drive, omg). From a quick view, I only saw 4 new things I would have wanted (two eye creams, acne body spray, and the 3-in-1 cream cleanser) and I'm always willing to grab more Nailtiques...but then that was it.  The items I want from the new items, I'd be really excited for, but I don't want to buy a full package for 4 items and more backup supplies of Nailtiques.

If I change my mind in a few weeks, I can make an order then. If I lose out on a few of the 4 items I would have wanted to try, then hopefully at least I'll have 1-2 of them left to throw into my kit for Fall, probably better that I don't get 2 more eye creams anyway, since my last kit had 2 eye creams in it too! LOL

So I figured out why I wasn't getting the emails. I called to skip this month and found that I wasn't even subscribed. Not sure how I have been able to go in every other season and select my products. Totally weird. So she went ahead and subscribed me and skipped this quarter.
