The depths

The oils

Few ingredients. Their names, sources, lots, and proportions still matter.

The name

Poplar is the road, not an ingredient.

Poplar names the place and the way of making. A leaf on the page does not mean leaf extract in the bottle. Every outward ingredient will be named plainly, in its proper order, when the formula is exact.

The Essential Spray

Witch hazel and distilled water

This is the architecture of Kelly's living recipe. In the bottle, the essential oils appear to enter the witch hazel, then the witch hazel enters the water. Kelly shakes before spraying. We are keeping that observation and asking the outward formula to show exactly how it behaves over time.

Now
The recipe is being captured by weight, including which side of 70/30 is witch hazel.
Before sale
The preserved finished formula, pH, shake behavior, sprayer, and shelf life must be tested together.

The aromatic composition

Essential oils, not a perfume effect

The Classic family begins with tea tree, lavender, bergamot, and peppermint. The exact oils, suppliers, lots, concentration, and safe-use directions are not a mood board. They belong to the finished batch record and the outward label.

The scent is part of recognizing the bottle. It is not permission to promise that the bottle treats a condition.

The Body Oil

The carrier is the quiet work.

Jojoba

Kelly's known road. The first retained trials begin here.

Apricot kernel

A long-used companion to jojoba on dry mountain skin.

Oregon meadowfoam

The third candidate in the Classic base, still to be balanced in a 100 g trial.

These are the bench direction, not yet the ingredient declaration. One retained formula has to win in the bottle and on the body before the label is written.

The garden

Plantain, yarrow, calendula

They grow in Poplar's field of attention. Their presence on this site is not a claim that every plant enters every bottle. If a garden plant becomes an ingredient, the batch book and label will say so.
