Tween Hygiene

Are you educating your tween son about personal hygiene and looking for products he might enjoy using? Prep U to the rescue! We have a solution or two that are well worth your consideration.

Prep U was launched in Austin, TX, by founder and CEO Michelle Houp, mother of two active boys, who was seeking all-natural, high-quality personal care products for boys ages 8-17.

We created our products to battle boy stink before, during, and after sports and other activities and provide parents a better option for how to introduce personal care into their sons’ lives and tackle body odor without the use of harmful chemicals.

Prep U was honored to win the 2020 Eco-Excellence Award for Best Hair Care for Him, the 2018 Eco-Excellence Award for Best Skincare for Kids, and we were finalists in 2019 in the Best Skincare for Him category. These awards recognize excellence in social and environmental sustainability for products, services, companies and websites.

A Few of Our Popular Products

Body Spray: Prep U Body Spray is ideal for tackling bad smells. Gentle enough for use directly on the skin and powerful enough to tackle sweaty shoes, our spray uses a blend of natural essential oils to wrestle odor-causing bacteria into submission, leaving a fresh, invigorating scent in their place.

Natural Deodorant: Prep U Natural Deodorant is designed for teen boys. Instead of using chemical agents to fight armpit odor, it uses a combination of essential oils to deal with the problem. And, because we make it with organic and wholesome natural ingredients, it will not only fight odor and wetness, but will do it while maintaining the integrity of the boy’s skin.

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

2-in-1 Hair + Body Wash:  With Prep U 2-in-1 Hair + Body Wash, he’ll get more moisture, more skin and hair-boosting hydration, with fewer bottles and less waste. This smooth, sudsy, Castille soap-inspired cleanser is made exclusively from all-natural ingredients to improve the overall condition and appearance of skin and hair, no matter the type or texture.

Active Dry Powder: Prep U Active Dry Powder is packed with all-natural ingredients that keep him dry and comfortable wherever he needs it most. From his nether regions to his armpits, your tween or teen’s body can be a paradise for sweat. Hands, feet, crotch, butt - you name it - it’s all sweat-prone. A good natural deodorant can help defend against the stink that sweaty pits emit, but Active Dry Powder is the solution for places where a stick won’t work.

Prep U manufactures excellent personal hygiene products for your tween that won’t irritate his delicate skin or dose him with harsh chemicals. Our products will help him feel more confident and make hugs a sweet-smelling affair, even after a soccer game! Contact us online for more information.
