Hygiene Products for Kids: Safe, Effective, and All-Natural Solutions

Why Kids and Teens Need Specialized Hygiene Products

Growing up means big changes—especially for kids and teens. As they enter puberty, their bodies start producing more oil and sweat, which can lead to new challenges like body odor, acne, and sensitive skin. Choosing the right hygiene products for this stage is important, not just for health, but for building confidence and lifelong self-care habits.
At Prep U, we understand these unique needs. Our all-natural personal care products are specifically designed for kids and teens. We use only clean, plant-based ingredients that are safe, gentle, and effective—free from aluminum, parabens, phthalates, sulfates, and artificial fragrances.

The Prep U Difference

  • Safe for Sensitive Skin: Every Prep U product is dermatologist-tested and gentle enough for daily use, even on sensitive skin.
  • All-Natural Ingredients: We believe in transparency. Our formulas are packed with plant-based oils, clays, and essential oils—no harsh chemicals, ever.
  • Teen-Tested, Parent-Approved: Our products are trusted by families and have been featured in GQ, Parents Magazine, and Your Teen Magazine.
  • Eco-Friendly: Prep U products are vegan, cruelty-free, and packaged with sustainability in mind.

Common Hygiene Challenges for Kids & Teens

  • Body Odor: Sweat glands become more active during puberty, making odor control a top priority. Our aluminum-free deodorants fight odor naturally without irritating delicate skin.
  • Acne & Oily Skin: Increased oil production can lead to clogged pores and breakouts. Our face washes and scrubs use gentle exfoliants and natural clays to keep skin clear and healthy.
  • Dryness & Sensitivity: Many kids and teens have skin that reacts to harsh soaps or synthetic fragrances. Prep U’s body washes and cleansing bars hydrate and protect while cleansing.
