The Vanity: Trendsetter Tracee Ellis Ross Spills Her Beauty, Health & Fashion Confessions in the Jet October 17th Issue

Ebony Magazine said it best when they said "addictions come in many forms." No one knows this better than Tracee Ellis Ross aka the "single girl's bestie" from TV's Girlfriends turned hot, happily married therapist in BET's new sitcom Reed Between the Lines.

Additionally to Ross's Trendsetter Spotlight feature in the October issue of Ebony, she is the cover girl for JET Magazine October issue. In "Style Spotlight on Tracee Ellis Ross" and "Our Girlfriend in Back," Ross brings us up to speed about her favorite beauty products, fashion brands and how she maintains her killer figure:

[Ebony & JET] Dream product/Tracee's hair essentials: Kerastase Serum Oleo-Relax. "I love Kerastase products, especially [Oleo-Relax], It's expensive, but it lasts a long time. There's something about this serum that coats my hair and smoothes the cuticle." She tells JET, "It's the key to getting a glossy, smooth blowout with out being bone-straight so there's still some volume to it."

[JET] Best Curly hair tip: "Brush your hair when it's soaking wet and filled with conditioner. Once you have completed brushing your hair and getting the tangles out, do not put a brush back into your hair."

[Ebony & JET] Cheap thrill/Favorite places to shop: "I freaking love Zara. Zara, Zara, Zara. My closet is filled with Zara." In addition, Ross shops at American Apparel. "All of my favorite summer dresses were $15.99 from Urban Outfitters. You can find great shoes there, too."

[JET] Workouts she swears by: The Tracy Anderson method (available on DVD). Or online ballet classes at balletbeautiful.com. "While doing the exercises, I feel sexy, I feel beautiful, I am laughing my ass off and I have a ball," she says.

The Vanity: Rihanna, Nia Long and Eva Marcille Named Winners in My Black is Beautiful Awards

I guess I was the only one that didn't know that "My Black is Beautiful" were having their beauty awards in which they nominated and announced winners in the following categories: Beautiful Hair (Pantene), Beautiful Face (Olay Definity and CoverGirl Queen Collection) and Beautiful Smile (Crest). I was happy to see that Taraji P. Henson, Nia Long, Tracee Ellis Ross, Anika Rose, Eva Marcille and Regina King were among the nominees.

The Beautiful Hair award goes to Rihanna. Seriously, who else was going to win? Sure, you might be tired of hearing about pop's favorite "It Girl." However, when were you not inspired by her "uber-original style?" Buy me an all-white suit and a leopard top and I'm good to go! On the other hand, Taraji P. Henson's shift from a chic bob to a rockstar-like shag did inspire me to cut my hair again. And if I do decide to go natural in the future, I hope my curl pattern is similar to that of Tracee Ellis Ross.

While Queen Latifah and Jill Scott are definitely beautiful - inside and out - it is beauty of Nia Long that has captivated us all! If I had the choice to have the glow of my celebrity, I'd request Nia Long because she has nice, luminous skin that gets better with age. While I was happy that Essence did a hair diary on Nia Long I am really interested in Nia Long's skin secrets to that I take notes!

I think I was the only surprised by the nominees but the winner as well. Eva Marcille beat out Regina King and Anika Noni Rose for best smile. I was betting on Regina King to be honest with you! Ever since I've hooked up with Crest, I've had the chance to try products that I would purchase because they work: the Crest Whitestrips Advanced Seal, the Crest Pro-Health Enamel Shield Toothpaste, and the Crest Pro-Health Enamel Shield Mouth Rinse.

Are you satisfied with the winners/nominees or do you feel someone else should've won?
