Clorox Ick-tionary

The Clorox Company partnered with award-winning writer, comedian, and mom, Carol Leifer, who has written for shows such as Modern Family and Seinfeld, to launch the Clorox Ick-tionary, a wiki-style dictionary of everyday ick that parents everywhere and others are all-too familiar with. 

Carolyn was asked to illustrate some of the definitions in the project and devise concept sketches based on word usage. Once Carolyn’s sketches were approved, she created the final original vector illustrations to showcase the ick.
