i have to advice everyone that having any kind of zoom-in mirror makes pimple popping extremely difficult to resist!

Decent advice! Keep most of theese things in my bag already

Nail file a must have

I love this article and I want most of these products!

I have wanted to try that Oribe dry shampoo for the longest time, but I just can't justify paying $40 for a dry shampoo :(

hand cream is smth that I can't live without.

Anything I can put on my hands and still type immediately afterwards is a gift from heaven.

I have everything mentioned in this article on my desk too! I tend to over stock on the lipsticks and lipgloss - they are my weakness. All I need now, is the job and the title of beauty editor!

I'm not a beauty editor and I have most of this stuff on hand at all times.

Great tips for my desk!

Spending 10+ years of my life obsessed with creating the world's finest shampoo, I honestly believe I did it - with a remarkable formulator's help. All who tried it agree - incredibly rewarding since I never was a chemist or stylist - just tenacious. I truly hope readers agree ESSENTUALE is the best shampoo. Just relaunched and available only at the ESSENTUALE online store so far. Thank you for reading! I'd love to see it yours and on many beauty editor's desks :))

Hand sanitizer!

a non-greasy hand cream is a must!!!!!!

by LeSucre Wednesday, August 1, 2012 at 12:37AM Report as inappropriate

Loved this article! I have alot of these things on my desk at work and home. The candles are a must on both!

Great advice, Thanks!!

I love the vaseline lip therapy, it's cute and works

by Only1KimmieD Friday, June 22, 2012 at 12:05PM Report as inappropriate

I need to try that clear head balancing balm!

by alictasia Friday, May 18, 2012 at 07:52PM Report as inappropriate

Great Article-especially seeing Korres Lip Butter mentioned. I have been a fan of Korres for quite a while-especially the lip butter which I will not be without-one in my bag and on my make-up table. Far from an expensive product but a very good one-their antiaging primer fills in lines and has very good additives and silicone free. We really do not have to go the poor house to look good. Thanks for the article and all the good information.

I am a beauty and cosmetics translator and I have most of those items plus a stack of dictionaries piled up on my desk. I even have a couple of bottles of nail polish and I do my nails when I need to take a break from translating ! :) Great article. Really enjoyed reading it!

by beautyterm Thursday, April 26, 2012 at 12:08PM Report as inappropriate

I keep all these things at my desk except the dry shampoo and candles are a no-no at my office. I also keep a spare flat-iron, moroccan oil and a pair of black & brown heels...a girl must always be prepared!

by MizzPink Wednesday, April 25, 2012 at 08:50AM Report as inappropriate

Surprising that the vaseline lip therapy is rated so low though.

by MissXu Saturday, April 14, 2012 at 05:22PM Report as inappropriate

can I be a beauty editor? I want free stuff to try and, if I like them, keep. I is jealous :p

by anna_davis Friday, April 6, 2012 at 11:02AM Report as inappropriate

Always looking for lotion that doesn't leave a greasy film afterwards - the Crabtree & Evelyn sounds perfect.

by whitenteethathomenow Wednesday, April 4, 2012 at 12:01PM Report as inappropriate

Interesting, I'm taking notes.

by shay_hampton Wednesday, April 4, 2012 at 10:05AM Report as inappropriate

I love it.

by tiffany_gallehugh Tuesday, April 3, 2012 at 06:16PM Report as inappropriate

I like to indulge, but keeping a $60 candle on your desk and never burning it seems foolish.

by robyne00 Tuesday, April 3, 2012 at 05:36PM Report as inappropriate

I have a nail file, lotion and cuticle cream in my desk. I always have perfume in my purse, so I don't keep it in my desk. I'll have to think about getting the stress relief gel, though. I could use it!

by WiccanLady Tuesday, April 3, 2012 at 11:44AM Report as inappropriate

IMO the best stress reliever is a bottle of wine...

by Only1KimmieD Tuesday, April 3, 2012 at 11:26AM Report as inappropriate

I think being a beauty editor is my dream job!

by LittleBunny Sunday, April 1, 2012 at 06:25PM Report as inappropriate

I concur. Eh. None of the products are that excitng.

by cheechy Sunday, April 1, 2012 at 05:47AM Report as inappropriate

Eh, the only real new and helpful info was the stress relieving gel.

by dawnrager Saturday, March 31, 2012 at 09:19PM Report as inappropriate

Very interesting article. Thanks for the helpful tips on what to have available.

by muellsrus Saturday, March 31, 2012 at 06:10PM Report as inappropriate

I keep a nail file and lotion in my drawer at work.

hmmm cute things

by Nicole2814 Friday, March 30, 2012 at 04:29PM Report as inappropriate

those nail files are really pretty!

The candle idea is cute!

Cute article!

by tallredamanda Thursday, March 29, 2012 at 10:56AM Report as inappropriate

hand lotion is a must for me too. The rest-not so much... Mirror is for the purse, a lip balm/gloss/etc too...

by venenumletalis Thursday, March 29, 2012 at 09:18AM Report as inappropriate

Too bad, we can't have candles in college!

by MissXu Thursday, March 29, 2012 at 08:16AM Report as inappropriate

This just described everything I have on my desk at home haha except the dry shampoo :P but I would love to be a beauty editor, sounds ah-mazing!

by linche0starligh Thursday, March 29, 2012 at 05:30AM Report as inappropriate

Love the Korres lip butter! I always have a travel sized can of Suave dry shampoo & mirror as well. Good list of products!

by pynkNymphette Wednesday, March 28, 2012 at 10:57PM Report as inappropriate

this list just made me sad i don't work in an office like that. it sounds pretty fun to be playing with beauty products all day and to have a desk that you can pretty-up with those items. oh well, i guess that's what home is for!

by mlenaei Wednesday, March 28, 2012 at 11:06AM Report as inappropriate

These were great! I'm currently applying to several editorial positions, specifically beauty and fashion, and I can't wait to actually put this into practice.

by al33oop Wednesday, March 28, 2012 at 11:00AM Report as inappropriate

I keep a stash of simialr products. The one thing I won't keep on hand is an emery board. I feel like they shred up my nail. I only use crystal or glass files.

by MssDani Wednesday, March 28, 2012 at 10:54AM Report as inappropriate

Fun to see what you editors keep at your desks. But I burn wonderful-smelling candles and savor every inhalation of the scent. The smell - and the whole experience - is very different when the candle is burning.

by Jewelrydesigner Wednesday, March 28, 2012 at 10:29AM Report as inappropriate

fun article - nice to peek at the professionals' beauty stash! and some great recommendations too.

by jenstar313 Wednesday, March 28, 2012 at 10:21AM Report as inappropriate

ditto!!

by volta Tuesday, March 27, 2012 at 10:25PM Report as inappropriate

I like to see what other people can't live without.

by beautybody Tuesday, March 27, 2012 at 09:30PM Report as inappropriate

definitely agree with those choices - dry shampoo is a MUST! Suave makes a yummy smelling one for around 3 bucks - works just as well as the pricy ones. I also have a mini flat iron on hand.

by glamgirlseven Tuesday, March 27, 2012 at 08:30PM Report as inappropriate

It all sounds perfectly reasonable to me!! =)

by powerwoman033 Tuesday, March 27, 2012 at 06:56PM Report as inappropriate

$39 for a dry shampoo?! That is absurd! I keep at least 3 lipsticks, a hand cream, and a file in my purse at all times.

by TheLacqueredLady Tuesday, March 27, 2012 at 06:46PM Report as inappropriate

I keep all these things in my purse and all over the bathroom and my bedroom. So I do agree with it and understand it. All kittens should have these things.
