Growing up, my mom introduced me to the world of essential oils and their natural benefits, and I quickly developed a liking for strong, distinct scents like lavender and peppermint. My favorite, however, is InTune, a patchouli-based oil that holds a special place in my heart. Initially, I started using it to calm my nerves and focus before dance and theater performances, but over time, its scent became intertwined with my love for performing. I became known for my “calming oil,” often offering it to fellow cast members before shows, and even my theater director would joke, “Lizzie, I can smell your patchouli.” To this day, InTune’s scent brings a flood of nostalgic memories, reminding me of the excitement and joy of being on stage.
