A single stroke of your favourite lip colour can totally change your mood. A lipstick is, therefore, is a must. A lipstick can also come in handy on days when you have sudden plans that need you to switch your look from desk to dinner. So, keep a red or pink lipstick in your desk drawer.
3. Roll-on or perfume

If excess under-arm sweat is a daily struggle for you, then it’s best to keep a roll-on in your desk drawer. So, whether it’s a meeting with your boss or a presentation with your team, an antiperspirant can instantly take your confidence level a notch up.
4. Bobby Pins and Hair Ties
Hair tie
A good hair day often doesn’t last all day. Have bobby pins ready to quickly change up your look (great for pesky bangs), or use a hair tie as a way to pull your hair out of your face in a sleek top knot or a low, professional ponytail.
5. Concealer
Concealer
With a dab of concealer, no one will ever guess that you have a breakout or were up all night working on that project. Use it to cover up dark circles and blemishes. It is also a substitute for foundation, smoothing areas of your skin where your foundation may have rubbed off over the course of the day.
