protecting

Antioxidant-rich resveratrol shields skin against daily pollution, whilst aztec marigold extract protects against HEV artificial light damage and natural minerals provide broad-spectrum sun protection

TROPIC TITBIT! While our Beauty Boosters contain differing levels of SPF, to ensure the pigments weren’t compromised by the added sun filters, the darker shades feature less SPF than the lighter shades.

SHADE-SATIONAL!

At Tropic we believe in inclusivity across our range, and makeup is no different. We’ve diversified our beloved Beauty Booster’s shade range because everyone deserves flawless coverage and an even, glowy complexion, and updated colour names to numbers, because there’s no such thing as one shade of ‘Barely Nude’. Ensure you’re helping customers choose the shade that perfectly matches their skin tone, thanks to the handy Makeup Swatching Guide on your Lounge!

BRYONY BLAKE - CELEBRITY MUA

This lightweight foundation is so nourishing and hydrating you can tell it has skincare benefits in it.

Morning Mist and use the flat edge of the sponge to blend. • Use the pointed end to reach the areas around your nose and eyes. • We’d recommend wearing Sun Day Facial

Apply in an inverted triangle shape beneath the eye, with the top of the triangle pointing down towards the cheeks to lift and brighten.

WHO? for anyone with a penchant for full, flawless coverage that feels light on the skin WHAT? a light-diffusing mineral powder foundation

THE WHY BEHIND THE PRODUCT

Liquid formulations tend to leave a sheen on the skin that customers with oily skin types might feel enhances their natural shine, so Susie set to work creating a full coverage base product that helps mattify while providing long-lasting, flawless coverage... meet our Mineral Foundation. Like with all our makeup must-haves, this powder foundation packs tons of skin benefits that nurture complexions as your customers wear them.

Tear the top off the refill pouch and gently pour this into the pot before reattaching the buffing plate.

FRESHLY MADE FACTS

Made in Britain

Available as part of the Complete Colour Palette WHO? Blemishes? Dark circles? Scars and marks? Customers seeking even skin, high coverage and a crease-free concealer need look no further WHAT? a long-lasting, full-coverage, mineral-rich concealer

THE WHY BEHIND THE PRODUCT

Illuma Light-Diffusing Concealer’s luminous formulation can mean blemishes are left enhanced, rather than hidden, and its lightweight texture may not cut it for the heavier coverage fans in your customer base. Ensuring everyone’s base preference and consistency is catered for, Susie created Undercover, a creamy, high-coverage concealer that disguises spots and dark circles with ease.

HOW TO ENJOY

• Apply Beauty Booster first (your customers will need to use less concealer afterwards and it won’t be rubbed off when applying their foundation)! • Undereyes: use the Precision Face Brush to draw an inverted triangle under the eyes.

Fill this in and blend the concealer with the domed end of the Precision Face Brush until a smooth, flawless finish is achieved. Consider using less concealer or swapping to Illuma if eyes are particularly lined or lacklustre. • Eyes: use concealer over the lids to prep for eyeshadow and help hold the product in place. Apply to the inner corner, brow bone and middle section of the eye, blending with the Precision Face Brush to make skin look fresher and more radiant. • Blemishes: Use clean fingers (or the

Beauty Drop Sponge/Flat Detailing Brush) to dab concealer over blemishes before softly blending into the skin with the

Precision Face Brush. • Set with either Soft Focus or Make It Matte to ensure longevity of wear.

HERO INGREDIENTS

mattifying

Blended with mineral microspheres that diffuse the appearance of lines and pores, it mattifies skin so if your customers have an oily/combination complexion or their T-zone starts to look shiny by lunchtime, Make It Matte will absorb any excess oils and keep their base looking fresh and flawless

boosting

Includes wonderful skin-loving ingredients like blackjack flower which promotes collagen production as well as reducing discolouration. Meanwhile, vitamin E hydrates skin and vitamin C maintains radiance

TROPIC TITBIT! Pressed powder is one of the very best ways to balance the complexion, control excess shine, and ensure your customers’ makeup goes the distance, and we have the perfect applicator to ensure the very best results. Working in synergy with one another, use the Powder Brush to achieve a flawless application of Make It Matte every time!

MASTER YOUR MAKEUP!

Once they’ve finished applying their base products, customers can dust this powder all over their face using the Powder Brush, focusing on high shine areas such as the forehead, nose and chin if they’re prone to oiliness in those areas. They can keep it with them for top-ups during the day should they need to. If they’re opting for a no makeup day, but want to remove excess shine, they can lightly apply this powder in the same way after they’ve done their skincare routine.

FRESHLY MADE FACTS

Available as part of the Complete Colour Palette WHO? for oilier skin types looking to combat shine and anyone seeking longevity out of their base makeup WHAT? a matte setting powder to deliver a weightless finish and keep base makeup in place for longer

THE WHY BEHIND THE PRODUCT

Susie wanted to create a matte setting powder that could be used more accessibly by those out and about or on the go. She created Make It Matte as a great alternative to Soft Focus, one that can be easily transported in your customers’ Colour Palette, allowing them to knock back shine throughout the day, wherever they are.

HOW TO ENJOY

• Once they’ve finished applying their base products, customers can dust this powder all over their face using the Powder Brush, focusing on high shine areas such as the forehead, nose and chin if they’re prone to oiliness there. • They can keep it close to hand in their

Colour Palettes for top-ups during the day should they need them. • If opting for a no makeup day, but want to remove excess shine, they can lightly apply this powder in the same way after they’ve done their skincare routine.

IN THE PRESS

BEAUTY BIBLE AWARDS 2022

I really wasn’t sure about this, as powder wasn’t my norm – but I found it great over my face makeup and equally good on its own over moisturiser. Wearing face masks, especially indoors, has wreaked havoc on my lower face makeup so as a trial, I decided to use Soft Focus on its own as a foundation. It worked a treat; so much so that I have now stopped wearing foundation day-to-day and only use this powder.

PAULINE BRISCOE - CELEBRITY MUA

For skin that looks dewy and radiant, while keeping sweat and oil at bay, I add a touch of Tropic’s Soft Focus Perfecting Powder to the T-zone (forehead, nose and chin) only, leaving cheeks powder-free and glowing. WHO? for anyone looking for long-lasting makeup and a diffused, mattified skin finish WHAT? a light-diffusing mineral finishing powder that sets makeup and promises a crease-free wear

THE WHY BEHIND THE PRODUCT

Mattifying skin can leave it looking flat, so Susie harnessed innovative makeup technology, creating a powder that knocks back shine, while diffusing light to retain glorious skin radiance and blurring the appearance of fine lines and pores for an even, youthful glow. Doing exactly what it says on the tin, Soft Focus is hand-blended, finely milled and feels light as a feather, leaving your customers’ complexions comfortable and luminous.

HOW TO ENJOY

• Press the Precision Face Brush or Kabuki Brush into the mesh and swirl to remove excess powder. • Apply to the oily areas of the face, such as the T-zone, in gentle, circular motions, or under the eyes to set concealer.

WHO? for customers seeking a getaway glow, without splurging on a plane ticket WHAT? a pressed bronzer that leaves skin looking sun-kissed and radiant

THE WHY BEHIND THE PRODUCT

Bronzer is a staple for bringing sunny warmth and definition into the skin, and we believe it’s a product that should be in everyone’s makeup bag or, in our case, Colour Palette. Where foundation, though great for evening complexions, can flatten faces, bronzer breathes new life into skin, which is why it was so important for Susie to introduce a range of pressed bronzers suitable for all skin tones. Perfect for lightly dusting over the entire face for an all-out glow or specific areas that naturally catch the sun, Jet Set offers radiance and sun-kissed brilliance even on those grey-weather days.

HOW TO ENJOY

• Ensure skin is freshly cleansed and moisturised, and that base makeup has been applied. • Use the Powder Brush to apply bronzer from mid-way between the lips and ear, up and across the cheek in smooth, upwards motions. • Customers can also apply to any areas that naturally catch the sun, such as the bridge of the nose and the top of the forehead.

HOW TO ENJOY

• For Powder Blushers, use the Powder

MASTER YOUR MAKEUP!

Customers can opt for a fully sculpted look or simply add some definition to specific areas, such as... • Nose: apply a thin line of concealer or highlighter down the centre of the nose, adding a darker shade on either side and around the tip. • Cheekbones: apply a darker shade in a straight diagonal line beneath the cheekbones (customers can suck in their cheeks to find where to place the contour). • Forehead: apply a darker shade of contour around the hairline and blend a Way To Glow Highlighter or Illuma to the centre of the forehead for added definition.

So Sculpted was created to complement diverse skin tones and finish fancies, with powder and cream contour shades in a range of darker to lighter hues that blend out effortlessly for expert, editorial results every time.

HOW TO ENJOY

• For So Sculpted Cream Contours, advise customers use the Flat Detailing Brush for application and the Precision Face

Brush for pressed colours. • Both brushes are dual-ended, so recommend they swap according to the size of the area they’re contouring. • Ensure all contour is blended properly and harsh lines are diffused before setting with

Soft Focus or Make It Matte for added staying power.

Brow Boss available as part of the Complete

Colour Palette

WHO? for anyone big on brows, who looks to polish, perfect and shape them their own way WHAT? enriched pomades and powders that colour and groom brows

THE WHY BEHIND THE PRODUCT

Brows have had the spotlight on them in recent years and this obsession doesn’t look like it’s dying down anytime soon. Ensuring we always have our fingers pressed firmly on the pulse of the trends, Susie set about creating a collection of expert brow pomades and powders to perfect and polish your customers’ brows and help balance and frame their faces. It’s not called Brow Boss for nothing – each one transforms customers’ brow-games into wow-games with natural shades and the potential for multi-functional use!

HOW TO ENJOY

• Use the spoolie end of the 3in1 Eye Brush to gently comb eyebrows in an upwards motion. This will help to create a groomed base for the product to go on to. • Switch to the angled end of the brush and gently draw it across the surface of the product. • Use light strokes to fill in brows, mimicking hairs for a natural finish. Use sparingly on the inner brow where hairs are naturally less dense. • Switch back to the spoolie end of the brush and gently comb through brows in the natural direction of hair growth to ensure the product is evenly distributed and there are no harsh lines.

FRESHLY MADE FACTS

Available as part of the Complete Colour Palette WHO? polished mattes, satin sheens and resplendent sparkle – there’s a colour and finish to suit everyone WHAT? a versatile range of super-smooth, richly pigmented eyeshadows

THE WHY BEHIND THE PRODUCT

Designed to dazzle or subtly define, Susie sought to create a full-spectrum eyeshadow range that could be effortlessly taken from day to night. Applied individually or in complementary combinations, these myriad shades make for beautiful eyes.

HOW TO ENJOY

• Dark shades add intensity and definition, and are best suited to the outer corners of the eyelid or lining the lash line. • Light shades highlight the area they are applied to, and are best suited to the inner corners and middle of the eyelid, as well as the brow bone. • Shimmer shades will create a subtly shimmering highlight, and are best for the inner corners and middle of the eyelid. • Use the small end of the Flat Detailing

Brush to create three vertical stripes on the eyelid, applying the lightest towards the nose and the darkest towards the outer eye. Using the fluffy end of the Eye Shadow

Brush, blend the lightest colours together. • Blend the darkest colour to suit eye shape:

For close set eyes, blend outwards.

For downward-tilting eyes, blend upwards.

For larger eyes, blend into the crease towards the inner eye.

For smaller eyes, stay close to the lash line.

IN THE PRESS

CHRISTINA OULOUPI - MAKEUP ARTIST

For a defined line along the upper lid, I love using Tropic’s Silk Gel Liner in the shade Warm Brown. You can also smudge it out for a sultry liner look or go full smokey eye by scribbling the pencil all over your lid before blending it! If you’re feeling extra bold, use it as a lip pencil. It works great as a warm deep brown or a nude for darker skin tones! WHO? whether they’re opting for a subtle definition, wide-eyed look or smudged-out drama, Silk Gel Liners are a makeup must-have WHAT? a conditioning liner with a soft, gel-like formula for effortless application

THE WHY BEHIND THE PRODUCT

For Susie, convenience is key when it comes to makeup and our Silk Gel Liners were created with this in mind. Gone are the days of sharpening pencils, only for them to snap off, restarting the process all over again – our liners sharpen themselves, making them perfect for popping into your customers’ on-the-go makeup bags! And, with the skin around our eyes being the most delicate on the face, meaning that it’s prone to damage and premature ageing as a result, our liners have been blended with nourishing natural waxes, so they glide over the skin like (you guessed it) silk, no pulling or tugging required!

HOW TO ENJOY

• Use the twist and sharpen function to propel the liner and sharpen the tip to a perfect point before applying to the lash line. • Customers can diffuse using the Small

Detailing Brush along the lash line for subtle definition, the angled end of the 3in1 Eye

Brush to create a cat-eye flick, or simply run along the waterline for an effortlessly sultry finish – however your customers want to wear theirs, this adaptable liner has been crafted to suit.

HOW TO ENJOY

• Start at the base of the lashes and move the Fixing Gel Mascara’s wand upwards to define individual lashes, repeating as many times as desired. We’d recommend one to two coats for a natural-looking lash lift, or three or more coats for a more dramatic, fuller-looking lash. • Follow by sweeping the Extension Fibres wand over the lashes, concentrating on the tips. • Wait 20 seconds for the fibres to adhere to the lashes, then apply another coat of

Fixing Gel Mascara to set the fibres in place. • Repeat the layers of fibres and mascara as many times as desired to achieve the effect customers are looking for.

Customers can also use their Lip Stain on their cheeks!

• While the Lip Stains can work over powder products, if applying to cheeks, we suggest applying them on top of liquid products like Beauty Booster or onto clean, fresh skin. • Sweep or dot the chosen Lip Stain onto the apples of the cheeks and, while it’s still wet, blend out using a clean finger or the Kabuki or Precision Face Brush. • If customers have used their fingers, be sure to remind them to wash their hands immediately afterwards to avoid any staining.

FRESHLY MADE FACTS

Made in Britain WHO? for anyone seeking colour with staying power, our Lip Stains do exactly what they say on the tube, creating a lip look that lasts WHAT? lusciously hydrating, smudge-proof lip colour that stands the test of time

THE WHY BEHIND THE PRODUCT

During the pandemic, inspired to come up with a solution to smudge-free makeup under masks, Susie set out on a mission to create a lip colour that stayed in place but wouldn’t leave lips dry and tight.... cue our Lip Stains. Boasting our longest lasting lip formulation ever, these stains stay intact, making them perfect for a dinner date, night out with friends or all-day wear. Packed with enriching and hydrating natural properties, they sit comfortably on lips and, because they’re smudge-proof, they won’t transfer, making them a mask-wearers’ must-have, ready for the big reveal when they are!

HOW TO ENJOY

• Ensure lips are clean and dry, and completely clear of any product or moisture. • Your customers can team their Stain of choice with a corresponding Line Up Lip

Pencil. Softly line the edges of the lips for added definition. • Before using the Lip Stain, first swipe away any excess on the edge of the tube and then apply a thin coat to the lips. • Repeat as desired to build the colour, ensuring lips are fully dry between each coat. • If extra moisture is needed, leave the Lip

Stain to dry completely for a few minutes before applying Lip Love or Lip Fudge on top. For longer-lasting wear, use less of these hydrating heroes. • As they stain, when it’s time to remove these Lip Stains, water might not cut it.

We recommend reaching for Smoothing

Cleanser to ensure all the colour is effectively lifted away.

IN THE PRESS

FEATURED IN THE INDEPENDENT

This creamy two-in-one balm both soothes and hydrates dry lips and the shade Pink Guava is our personal favourite. If you prefer a tinted balm over a lipstick, this is ideal, especially for under a face covering. You don’t need a brush to apply, just use your fingertip for a speedy application. It’s a real winner if you’re prone to dry, chapped lips but still want a touch of colour. WHO? for anyone seeking a soothing base for lip products, a nourishing lipstick finisher, or a glossy on-the-go essential to keep lips conditioned and soft WHAT? deliciously creamy, minty balms that nourish, soften and plump

THE WHY BEHIND THE PRODUCT

A continuous sell-out year-round, when it came to conceptualising these little pots of big lip nourishment, Susie thought about the makeup staple missing in our range, something multitasking that could be effortlessly transported in handbags and packed a whole lot of nourishing natural botanicals in it too... it was this train of thought that led to our delectable Lip Fudges! Protecting lips throughout the year, from the harsher winter months to skin-drying summer heat, they also double as the perfect base product to prep lips before applying Kiss Me Quick Lipsticks, Lip Glazes or Lip Stains.

HOW TO ENJOY

• Apply throughout the day as often as desired.

FRESHLY MADE FACTS

Made in Britain

Packaging made from 95% PCR plastic WHO? for anyone prone to dry, chapped lips WHAT? an ultra-nourishing balm in an effortless, hygienic, twist-up applicator

THE WHY BEHIND THE PRODUCT

Formerly housed in a pot, making on the go application messy and cross-contamination from fingers likely, Susie reimagined this Tropic OG (which she used to whip up, much like Body Smooth, in her mum’s kitchen way back when) in a twist-up tube for a hygienic application. By updating this product’s packaging, we could also take a big step forward towards our goal of reducing virgin plastic usage in our range and Lip Love now comes in high-percentage PCR packaging that can be effortlessly recycled too, meaning it loves the planet just as much as it loves your customers’ lips!

HOW TO ENJOY

• Apply a small amount to dry lips or areas of skin as often as required.
