Here at GalTime, we’re launching a brand new column: The Quick Quiz.

We’ll be sending celebrities, top designers, beauty-licious beauty mavens, and more ten “quick” questions to answer. Maybe you’ll even learn a thing or two about your favorite A-listers!

The first to take on our Quick Quiz was Melissa Rivers. Next up? Former Bachelorette and interior design all-star, Jillian Harris. You may also remember her from ABC’s Extreme Makeover: Home Edition!

Now, she’s giving GalTime the 411 on everything from how to spice up a “blah” room to her favorite backstage beauty secret!

1.) One thing our readers would be surprised to know about life on The Bachelorette: I did all my own hair and makeup, except for a few occasions. I had it done for rose ceremonies!

2.) Favorite food: My granny’s beet rolls

3.) Beauty product(s) you can’t live without: Crème de La Mer & Caudalie Beauty Elixir

4.) Favorite places to shop for home décor on the cheap: Home Goods, Home Sense, and Value Village.

5.) Your top three tips for personalizing a room: Frame mementos in oversized frames. Mix and match textures & patterns. Layer lighting.

6.) Favorite moment while on Extreme Makeover: Home Edition: Hanging out with the Keefer family in their new rehabilitation room, and watching Brian swim with his brothers in his new pool. Brian suffered from severe injuries after a horrible accident and has been a quadriplegic ever since. He cannot move any of his limbs, but when he is in a therapy pool, he can miraculously move them. We gave that to him in his own home, and it was the most incredible thing to see!

7.) One thing our readers would be surprised to know about you: I took French as a first language for the first 8 years of my school life. (Also, I have an addiction to gummy bears!)

8.) Favorite space that you’ve designed and why: My patio at my Vancouver condo. It was so lush and had so much personality. It was layered with mirrors, different seating styles, huge hydrangeas, palms, lilacs & lavenders. I had a chandelier outside. It was just pure bliss!

9.) Favorite summer fashion trend: Closed-toe espadrilles, and short-shorts with Frye boots.

10.) Favorite beauty/fashion trick you've learned "behind the scenes": Use HD powder & drink coconut water!
