Being a beauty editor, you would think that my hair would be in excellent shape, right? Ehh, wrong! Actually, a job that necessitates frequent hairstyling, not to mention hair coloring and my sun addiction (which flies in the face of all sane beauty advice, I know) has left my hair in pretty rough shape.

What about you? Are you giving your hair the TLC it needs or are you slacking a bit? This quiz below will help you figure it out -- and give you ideas on how to fix up your poor battered mane. Check out the questions below, click on any to answer then see where your hair stands.

Is Your Hairstyle Too Blah?

It's totally understandable to get a little lax with your look in the summer. After all, what's the point of hair and makeup like this if you're just sitting around the pool? But come fall, that whole warm-weather excuse goes away and it's time to bring back a bit of the effort, right?

If you're wondering whether your current look is up to snuff for fall, check out this quiz. Answer a few questions and you'll get feedback on your look, plus tips to give it some oomph. Already know that your look could use a jump-start? Then check out these looks below for inspiration (warning: some are not for the faint of heart!).

Is Your Eye Makeup Hurting Your Overall Look?

On the one hand, applying eye makeup seems like it should be easy. A little liner, shadow, mascara and you're done, right?

But on the other hand, it can be quite daunting. Which eyeliner is best for my eyes? Which shadow will give me a perfect smoky eye and which will just make me look like I lost a fistfight? Should I try the volumizing, lengthening or curling mascara? The possibilities are endless, and not always in a good way.

To help ease the anxiety that can come with trying to perfect your eye makeup and maximize your eyes' impact, try taking this quiz. Just a few quick questions stand between you and the perfect eye makeup routine for your face and lifestyle. I took it and now I not only feel more confident with my look, but I've shaved some time off my morning routine! (No more standing in front of the mirror with three different pallets trying to decide what'll look best, yay!)

How to Look Stylish this Fall -- Without Being a Slave to Trends

nospam@example.com ()

You know those people who seamlessly transition from season to season wearing the latest trends and always looking fabulous? Yeeaaaaahhhh, I'm not one of those people. My M.O. is more like this: read a magazine article about "the hottest looks for fall," think "yeah, I could pull that off," buy a ridiculous outfit or new makeup and then have it sit in my room for the next four months while I summon up the courage to try it.

Does that sound more familiar?

Well, whether you're like that first person, me or (likely) somewhere in between, it never hurts to have a little help deciding what trends would look best on you, right? I mean, let's face it, most of what looks good on the runway isn't exactly appropriate for the office happy hour (as these brave women prove).

That's why I'm loving this fall beauty trends quiz. You just answer a couple questions and voila! It reveals what trends are best for your personality and current look. Give it a try, it's kind of eerie how right it is (at least for me) and then share -- what looks will you be trying for fall?

I THOUGHT My Skin Was Clean -- But I Was So Wrong

nospam@example.com ()

I'm so bummed. I've been using my cleanser for ages and I was convinced that it was getting my skin perfectly clean, but it totally wasn't. In retrospect, the near-constant breakouts should have been an indication that something was up, but I don't think I'm the only one who assumed that washing your face automatically gets rid of all the gunk.

Turns out, no, no it doesn't. It totally depends on what cleanser you use and your technique. If you're wondering whether your skin is "really clean" or just "fake clean," check out this quiz (it’s how I discovered my blunder in the first place). Then, check out these tips to keep your skin truly clean:
