Total Beauty: What's one bad beauty habit you can't seem to quit?

Sarma Melngailis: Getting my hair blown out and using curling irons too often. I know it's damaging my hair and making it look worse on days when I don't use a blow dryer or curling iron, but I can't help it. The salon I go to for blow dries is right downstairs from my office so I just take my laptop down with me and it's like a second office. If I do my hair myself, I go at it with the curling iron. read more

We love all of the latest outcries for realistic body images in the media, like your responses to PETA's Miss USA ad on our Facebook page and the UK retailer who made a public promise to cut back on airbrushing its models. Victoria's Secret is in the spotlight again, too. The lingerie powerhouse always catches flack for its stick-thin models, but this time protesters took their message to the streets...and stripped. read more

Beth Behrs plays a blonde 20-something who goes from riches to rags on "2 Broke Girls," a sitcom so funny we've had to swear off all liquids while watching it for fear of drowning by snort-laughing. Behrs may go for broke in laughs, but her traffic-stopping look for the Monsters University premiere last night is no joke. We love her romantic fishtail braid and natural makeup. Here's how to get both: read more

Aspiring actor Nicholas Ryan, 32, underwent two hours of cosmetic procedures to look more like his theatrical hero, Ryan Gosling. A Beverly Hills plastic surgeon filled Ryan's cheekbones, jawline, and other facial zones with injectable filler in an attempt to duplicate Gosling's square-jawed, rugged hotness. The results are in and ... the only "Ryan" that comes to mind here is Ryan from "The Office." read more

Weekends to us mean leisurely brunches, hiking with friends, and, OK, catching up on errands too. What they don't mean: spending hours in front of the mirror perfecting a cat eye before heading to the coffee shop or grocery store. read more

We love debating the finer points of the topknot. Is it "in" or "out"? Is it better sexy and disheveled or sleek and taut? And which celebs pull it off with style? Taylor Swift and Carly Rae Jepsen both have signature bangs, but when pulled into a trendy bun, the two songbirds transform instantly. TSwift's look is soft and romantic, styled elegantly for the Fragrance Foundation Awards. Carly Rae's style is more playful and chic, done for a performance on Good Morning America. So we're asking you: Which celeb got it right? read more

After winning "Best Celebrity Fragrance of the Year" this year with her Wonderstruck Enchanted perfume, we have high hopes for this new addition to the fragrance line. If it's supposed to be a reflection of who she is now, we're assuming it's slightly more mature and less playful than her previous scents. Top notes are sweet, floral-fruity with a woody base -- fun and feminine, but still strong. Launching this month, the packaging certainly reflects a more grownup expression from the pop star. The crystal clear bottle topped with a classic pearl necklace is lovely. read more
