About Us

Launched in December 2017, Prep U Products is a unique collection of all-natural personal care products designed specifically for active boys ages 7-17. Ready to take on the smells of boyhood, we empower boys with an age appropriate brand that guides them through the transitional years between toddler and teen, while introducing personal care into their daily lives.

Prep U products are made without parabens, dyes, sulfates, aluminum, synthetic fragrances, phthalates, genetically modified organisms, nanoparticles, or gluten. They are also not tested on animals. We only select ingredients from companies who do not test on animals, and when we are in the process of developing new products, we only test them out with human volunteers.

We are proud to have won the 2020 Eco-Excellence Award for Best Hair Care for Him, the 2018 Eco-Excellence Award for Best Skincare for Kids, and were finalists in 2019 in the Best Skincare for Him category. The Eco-Excellence Awards™ recognize excellence in social and environmental sustainability for products, services, companies and websites.

Ingredients to Look For

Always read product labels when choosing deodorant for your kids. Avoid deodorants and antiperspirants that contain aluminum, parabens, propylene glycol, triclosan, and other ingredients you probably won’t be able to pronounce.

• Shea butter: Shea butter is the ivory-colored fat that comes from the nut of the shea tree in Africa. It’s loaded with Vitamin A, Vitamin E, phytonutrients, neutral fats, and fatty acids, It’s great for skin, won’t clog pores, and helps eliminate the odor-causing bacteria that can build up under the arms.
• Arrowroot powder: Arrowroot powder is a starchy substance that is extracted from the root of a tropical plant. It is an excellent substitute for cornstarch for anyone with corn allergies or sensitivities and is great for keeping underarms dry.
• Beeswax: Beeswax is, as the name suggests, a natural, purified wax from the honeycombs of honey bees. It is a skin conditioning agent we use in our deodorant to reduce moisture loss.
• Virgin Coconut Oil: Virgin coconut oil is a plant-derived fatty acid oil that’s extracted from the rich white lining (or meat) of coconuts. It has amazing moisturizing properties.
• Jojoba oil: Jojoba oil is a liquid wax that is extracted from the nut of an indigenous North American shrub. It lubricates and waterproofs the skin without leaving behind an oily residue.
• Essential Oils: While most deodorants contain synthetic fragrances to keep you smelling nice throughout the day, good deodorants for teens contain essential oils instead. These oils are extracted from plants, are 100% natural, and some of them have antibacterial properties that will fight odor before it spreads.

Prep U Natural Deodorant is made for tween and teen boys. We use a combination of essential oils instead of chemical agents to fight armpit odor. And, because we make all of our products with organic and wholesome natural ingredients, the deodorants will not only fight odor and wetness, but will do it while maintaining the integrity of your son’s skin.  

Prep U Charcoal Deodorant is designed for sensitive skin. Adding activated charcoal helps to draw out and absorb odor-causing bacteria and toxins. It’s also great at keeping your teen’s underarms dry and odor-free without the use of aluminum, parabens, or other potentially harmful ingredients.

Prep U Body Spray is like having a personal shower with you wherever you go. Formulated to be gentle on skin but tough on smelly bacteria, we’ve blended Bergamot, Frankincense and Eucalyptus essential oils for an incredible scent that will make heads turn (in the best way!). So now it's time to ditch those stink traces and stay smelling fresh all day long - with no harsh chemicals in sight.  Just incase you don't know how to use a Body Spray, you can find more here.
