Product Description

WHAT IS IT?

This compact, travel-ready hair care set contains everything you need to care for your scalp and strands on the go. Featuring mini versions of Tropic’s bestselling formulas, it’s a complete routine in one kit. Perfect for travel, gifting, or trialling our hero hair products.

WHAT DOES IT DO?

Designed to gently cleanse, deeply condition, and boost scalp health, this vegan-friendly set contains only sulfate-free, biodegradable, and pH-balanced ingredients, so it's gentle to your hair and scalp.

Whether you’re away for a weekend or exploring the world, this handy hair kit keeps your routine seamless. The formulas are designed to remove buildup, nourish dry strands, smooth frizz, and leave your hair soft, shiny, and manageable from root to tip.

This collection contains:
Nourishing Hair Cleanser (50ml) – A formula that gently cleanses while conditioning.
Clarifying Hair Wash (50ml) – A foaming, sulphate-free shampoo that removes buildup and refreshes the scalp.
Hair Feast (50ml) – A rich, strengthening deep conditioner to hydrate and repair.
Hair Smooth (10ml) – A multitasking oil that defines, shines, and styles.

How To Use

Start by cleansing your scalp with either the Clarifying Hair Wash or the Nourishing Hair Cleanser. Both work beautifully alone or alternated throughout the week depending on your needs.

Follow with Hair Feast, working it through mid-lengths to ends and leaving for at least 5 minutes before rinsing (or leave on longer for a deeper treatment).

Apply Hair Smooth to damp or dry hair to boost shine, tame frizz, or define curls. You can also use it pre-wash to melt away product buildup.

Ingredients

Arginine

An amino acid that’s linked to hair growth, arginine also has the power to shield hair from the drying effects of colouring and bleaching hair. This means your hair colour will stay radiant and glossy for longer.

Murumuru Butter

Classified as an emollient, which means it’s incredibly moisturising, this nut butter helps hair maintain its elasticity, so there’s less risk of breakage. The butter is full of vitamins, fatty acids and minerals to strengthen your hair.

Abyssinian Oil

Produced from an oilseed plant, this pale yellow, lightweight oil is incredibly fast-absorbing so you won’t even know it’s there. It's high in fatty acid content and omegas, which, rather than penetrating the hair like other oils, act as an invisible cloak, keeping cuticles protected but not oily. All you’ll see is a superior shine.

Why Jojoba Oil Is Your Skin's Best Friend

At the heart of our Smoothing Cleanser is jojoba oil: a golden, skin-loving liquid that closely mimics your skin's own natural oils. That means it deeply cleansers without disrupting your delicate moisture barrier. Rich in vitamins E and B-complex, jojoba oil gently melts away makeup, sunscreen, and daily build-up, while keeping your skin nourished and balanced. It's non-comedogenic (so it won't clog pores), making it ideal for all skin types, from dry and sensitive to oily and blemish-prone. We chose jojoba for its versatility and skin compatibility, but you'll stay for the silky-soft glow it leaves behind.

Q&A

how long will these bottles last roughly of using every 2-3 days? thank you: Hi Tess, thank you for getting in touch. This would depend on how much is decanted for each use but we would expect this to last for 2-3 weeks if being used 2-3 times a week. We hope this helps
I’d like to use the travel sizes for the gym, please can you let me know if these bottles can be re-filled from the larger versions? Thanks: Hi Jenny, thank you for getting in touch with us. Due ton the size of the openings on our Mini versions of the Hair products, you may find it difficult to decant product from the full-size versions into these tubes. We hope this helps.
Are the hair products sulphate free: Hi Elise, thank you for getting in touch. All of our products are free from sulphates. We hope this helps!
Have coloured hair, would these products protect my hair.: Hi Katherine, thank you for getting in touch with us. The products within our Hair Discovery Kit won't protect the colour of your hair but they will not affect the colouring. They will add more of a nourishing effect for your hair. We hope this helps.
Hi, is the hair care range suitable for children?: Hi Rhian :) All of our products, including the hair care range, have all been safety assessed and approved for use for ages 4 and upwards. We hope this helps!
Does the scalp massager come in this collection?: Hi Rebecca, thank you for getting in touch with us. The Scalp Massager doesn't come as standard in our Hair Discovery Kit, however, it can be added for just £5. We hope this helps.
