Which Essential Oil Are You?

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at DU chapter.

With candles banned from dorm rooms, I’ve recently discovered the joy that is essential oil roll-ons and diffusers. If you want to find out which essential oil emulates your personality, keep reading.

Lavender

You’re the friend that listens. People go to you to tell you everything; not necessarily for thoughts or advice, because that might not be your thing, but they know that you will listen and be a shoulder to cry on. You also love naps and take one any chance you get, weather it’s for five minutes or five hours. With that, you love your bed and any settings that are comfy, cozy, and calming. You fit in there because you are calm yourself and are rational in stressful situations.

Eucalyptus

You’re on top of your game. You are the friend who never gets sick, but when you do, it is because you are overworking yourself. You are likely in too many clubs to count and the president of most of them. Don’t get me wrong, you are also a social butterfly. You make sure to make time for friends, whether its a quick lunch, coffee date, or a fun night out, even though you’re such a early bird.

Peppermint

You’re the gym rat. You don’t mind getting up early to hit the gym before your 8 A.M. or take the stairs to the tenth floor of your dorm building rather than the elevator. Your friends envy your motivation to beat the “freshman fifteen”. They also hate the fact that you do not get cramps during that time of the month and never get breakouts. Guess it’s all that water you drink.

Tea Tree

You’re the helpful friend. Everyone comes to you for advice, but you could take some of your own. You’re the most helpful to other people in their stressful situations, but when it comes to your own, you could use a friend like yourself. You give all the homework help, all the relationship advice, and help people feel more confident in themselves and their decisions. Make sure to take some of your own advice and don’t overthink things.

Jojoba

You’re the cute and funny one. You always know how to make people laugh, whether it’s doing physical comedy (because, let’s face it, you’re pretty clumsy) or striking a witty comment. You’re the life of the party. You’re also adorable and have amazing fashion sense. You do makeup like a pro and all your friends ask you to do theirs. You love being the center of attention and do the best celebrity impersonations. Keep being unapologetically you.

Blue Chamomile 

You’re super outgoing and love to make new friends and meet new people. Your personality is vibrant and attractive to others. People tend to want to be around you, because you give off a good energy that lifts the spirits of those around you. Although you’re not quite a morning person, your exuberance will last the entire night into the wee hours of the morning. You are spontaneous and fresh.

Rose

You have a light and airy presence that helps others around you feel grounded and settled. You are very positive and optimistic, leaving those around you with a sense of reassurance. You’re a good listener and a shoulder to cry on, although you never like to see people sad, especially because you are quite sensitive yourself. You often try to distract others with fun, light-hearted activities, like spa nights with manicures and face masks or movie nights with rom-coms and snacks in your jammies.

 

 

Jasmine

You are very high energy and enthusiastic about whatever comes your way. You are bold and spontaneous, always saying yes with a capital Y, which is a mistake sometimes, but you learn from it and move on. You do not hold grudges and are a forgiving friend who is always down for an adventure. When all your friends want to do is sleep, you’re ready to get out and enjoy the outdoors. You’d rather hike than go on the treadmill and study outside on the quad than in the stuffy library. You’re a free spirit.
