According to Tropic, one drawer hides an unreleased secret product. The brand says customers who find it get to try it before anyone else and can help shape the future of Tropic. Advent.center describes every product in the calendar as vegan and made in the brand's own kitchen.
How to Get the Most From It
The calendar includes several active products, so the order of use matters. Some general notes:
- Layer serums from light to targeted: apply Rainforest Dew first, then Glow Berry in the morning or Youth Potion at night.
- Avoid using retinal and exfoliants on the same evening: alternate Youth Potion with the Cocoa Comfort Mask.
- Use SPF as the last morning step: Sun Day goes on last in the morning routine.
- Apply the pulse point roll-ons before bed: use them at the wrists and temples.
Price and Value
The calendar costs £299. Tropic says the products would cost £668 if bought separately, which the brand presents as a £369 saving and its biggest-ever calendar saving. Individual retail prices for each item have not been published alongside the calendar, so the £668 total is Tropic's own figure.
According to Tropic, payment is taken when the pre-order is placed. The calendar is then dispatched in November, and the cost can be split using Clearpay. The brand says it has made only a limited quantity and expects the calendar to sell quickly; it also says last year's calendar sold out. Tropic's 90-Day Happiness Guarantee covers the calendar from the date it ships.
