In a perfect world, I'd have an hour every morning to dedicate to my makeup routine. But who am I kidding? After hitting snooze one (or five) times, I usually end up with only enough time to slap on a few products before running out the door, which is why I finish the rest of my look at my desk. I document the process each week for my POPSUGAR Beauty Instagram series called Desktop Beauty, and this week I got to play with some new Beauty by POPSUGAR launches.

The brand just released its new Trio Time Eye and a face palette, which feature three colored pans in nifty packaging. There are also three new colors coming to the Be the Boss Lip Gloss range, and one of them just might be my new favorite. Ahead, get a glimpse of how easy it was to get meeting-ready at my desk, then be sure to tune in each week for more of my desktop makeup sessions.

Gone of the days of lugging around eye shadow palettes every day (unless you're into that sort of thing). The Beauty by POPSUGAR eye shadow trios ($27) make it easy to toss only the basics in your purse. I used the Dubai trio to create a soft, simple look that works at the office and beyond. I used the shade Desert Door (a satin brown) in my crease and followed with Abu Dhabi (matte terracotta) all over my lid. I applied Arabian Nights (shimmer navy) along my lower lash line to create a smoky look that wasn't too intense.

The trio magic doesn't stop at just eyes — there's also a palette for your face ($34). It features subtle highlighter, blush, and bronzer shades. I used the Coffee Break trio for my office look. I loved how the blush shade in Take Five complemented my tanned complexion.

To finish off my face, I used new Beauty by POPSUGAR Be the Boss Lip Gloss in Drive Me Crazy ($18), a deep berry shades with superfine flecks of shimmer. The gloss goes on like butter and doesn't feel sticky or gooey.
