About us

Back when we started, grownish was called Growing Basics. Our motto was “Start with Naturals, Not Chemicals.” And our mission to this day has not changed. We Were Uninspired by traditional deodorant. So We Created Something better!

Too often, parents are stuck in the deodorant aisle choosing between harsh adult formulas and… well, nothing. When my daughter started experiencing body odor at six years old, I found nothing made for kids. So I stopped looking—and started building.

More than a decade on, we’ve attracted our share of imitators, but no one has been able to match that touch of true originality -creating a formula that reflects the balance needed for our audience is unparalleled. And we continue to listen to our customers to help make it easier for families to make better personal care choices.

Kid inspired• parent approved

Grownish deodorants were not just crafted with kids in mind, they were crafted with Kids. We asked kids what they wanted, and they told us: cool scents that make them feel fresh and something that's easy to use. A brand that builds confidence, not shame. So that’s what we built: a product parents feel good about buying, and kids feel proud to use.
