Editor's note: Recently Blaq Vixen Beauty asked the ladies of Love and Hip Hop what were their top 11 beauty, fashion and lifestyle picks for 2011. Up first is Love and Hip Hop executive producer and manager Mona Scott-Young.

As evident on Twitter tonight, Mona Scott-Young's (or Mona Scott King as she was called) guest appearance on Love and Hip was well-received. I loved how as a mentor, Scott-Young kept it real with Yandy, even though their talk did not seem to be as successful as we all thought it would be. Watch below:

Later, on Twitter, Scott-Young tweeted the following: "Hey my tweeps. Need [to] make the point that [although] I didn't agree with how Yandy handled that situation[,] it doesn't mean she's not a great [manager]. She's smart, dedicated[,] and loyal - all VERY important traits that are hard to find. Sometimes we all need a different perspective. Life is about correction...that's the beauty of waking up everyday. Our ability [to] learn from our past and apply that growth [to] our future."

And of course, Mona looked as fierce as she did in the Indique Hair video! Almost immediately after viewing the feature, the idea for this new mini-series sparked. I wanted to know what top beauty and lifestyle products kept the savvy trailblazer (along with the other ladies on the show) looking fabulous as they braved the drama and celebrated triumphs in 2011. Scott-Young has managed some of my favorite artists like Missy Elliot, Maxwell, Busta Rhymes and 50 Cent.

Here were Scott-Young's top 11 picks for 2011:

11. AMBI EVEN AND CLEAR DAILY MOISTURIZER |  "Good, clear skin makes for an easier beauty regimen."

10. KERACARE EDGE TAMER | "Keeps the edges of your hair laid out!"

9. OPI GEL NAIL COLORS | "Color lasts until you take it off so it extends your manicure. Perfect for a hectic schedule."

8. ANGE OU DEMON LE SECRET BY GIVENCHY | "Confident, strong personality + sexy fragrance = Powerful Presence."

7. JEWELRY & ACCESSORIES | Young favors "bold, chunky rings" and refers to them as "power rings" and "must-haves" for meetings. You can see a peek of one of her rings in the picture below.

6. GLAM SQUAD (MAKEUP BY TEKOA HASH AND HAIR BY WILLIAM EDMONDS) | "They roll in like scrubbing bubbles and make me beautiful!"

5. PORTABLE HOTSPOT | "Internet access on the go! Always need to be able to work no matter where I am."

4. INDIVIDUAL LASH EXTENSIONS | "Always feel glammed up without having to wear makeup. Just dab a little gloss and go."

3.   CHARGERS |  "I have extras for travel, car, office, purse. Can't afford to ever be caught 'dead.' LOL!"

2.   BLACKBERRY TORCH & iPHONE | "I NEVER leave home without my communication devices!"

1.   FAITH IN GOD, MYSELF, AND OTHERS | "That's ultimately my most useful and meaningful tool for EVERYTHING beautiful in my life. Both inside and out."
