When it comes to men’s grooming, a lot of guys focus on the basics—shaving, showering, maybe throwing on some cologne. But if you really want to stay fresh, comfortable, and irritation-free all day, you need to take your routine to the next level. The ultimate grooming routine isn’t just about looking good—it’s about feeling good, too. And we promise, feeling good can apply EVERYWHERE.
If you've got a routine, great, let us elevate your routine. If you don't then say hello, that’s where Happy Nuts comes in. Whether you’re battling sweat, chafing, or general discomfort, our lineup of game-changing men’s grooming products is the perfect addition (or sometimes replacement) ensures you stay fresh, dry, and confident from head to toe, no matter what season of the year or life you're in.
In this guide, we’re breaking down The Ultimate Men’s Grooming Routine, packed with expert tips and must-have products to add to your Get-Ready-With-Me routine, like our Comfort Cream and Anti-Chafe Comfort Stick to help you stay cool and irritation-free.
Step 1: Start with a Solid Shower Routine
A great grooming routine starts in the shower. Not a morning shower person, we get it, we get it, but all of these rules still apply. This is where you set the foundation for feeling clean and refreshed all day.
The Right Way to Shower:
✅ Warm, Not Hot – Are you taking scalding hot showers? We are talking like the skin is a little red when you get out of the shower. Yeah? Stop that. Seriously. Those super hot showers might feel great but they aren't great for your skin. We're not saying you need to take a cold shower (you should try it though), just turn your temperature down, your skin will thank you later.
✅ Use a Gentle, pH-Balanced Body Wash – Harsh soaps can strip away your skin’s natural oils, leading to dryness and irritation. Choose a mild, hydrating body wash that keeps your skin smooth and balanced. We're a little biased but our Big Wood Nut & Body Wash smells amazing and is made with all the best ingredients (plus it was also made for the next point)
✅ Wash Thoroughly (Especially Down There) – Your groin area traps moisture, sweat, and bacteria, which can lead to unwanted odor and irritation. Lather up well and rinse thoroughly to keep things fresh.
✅ Exfoliate 2-3 Times a Week – Sloughing away dead skin cells helps prevent ingrown hairs and keeps your skin feeling smooth. You can exfoliate multiple ways but an easy way is to use a body scrubber like this one that exfoliates without being too harsh.
Step 2: Keep Your Boys Fresh & Dry with Happy Nuts Comfort Cream
One of the biggest grooming mistakes men make? Ignoring moisture and chafing in the groin area. If you’ve ever dealt with swamp crotch, irritation, or that uncomfortable sticky feeling, you know it’s no joke.
That’s where Happy Nuts Comfort Cream comes in. Unlike regular powders that can get messy, our Comfort Cream goes on as a lotion and dries as a silky-smooth powder. This keeps your skin fresh, dry, and irritation-free all day.
Why You Need Happy Nuts Comfort Cream:
✅ Stops Sweat & Odor – Absorbs moisture, keeping your groin area fresh and dry.
✅ Prevents Chafing & Irritation – Reduces friction, so you stay comfortable no matter what.
✅ Long-Lasting Protection – Keeps working all day, even in the hottest conditions.
✅ Talc-Free & Skin-Friendly – Your old baby powder might have talc in it and it's been proven to be harmful. Comfort Cream is safe for daily use with no harmful ingredients.
💡 Pro Tip: Apply Comfort Cream right after drying off from the shower. A small amount goes a long way—rub it in, give it 30-60 seconds to dry and let it work its magic!

Step 3: Go Pro Trimming Down Below
Manscaping isn’t just about aesthetics (but it doesn't necessarily hurt either)—it’s about hygiene and comfort, too. Trimming excess body hair helps reduce sweat and odor buildup, especially in areas like your groin, underarms, and chest.
Manscaping Best Practices:
✅ Use the Right Tools – Guys, your face and your body need a different trimmer. We promise you that buying a high-quality trimmer designed for sensitive areas helps prevent nicks and cuts. So guys put the face trimmer down and pick up the Ball-ber Pro, your chest, balls, and significant other will thank you later.
✅ Trim in a Dry Environment – Guys, the old moniker of "sh*t, shower, shave" doesn't apply when it comes to the body. Trimming before showering helps reduce irritation and makes cleanup easier.
✅ Don’t Forget Aftercare – After trimming, and after the shower, pat dry (don't rub) and apply a soothing lotion or Happy Nuts Comfort Cream to prevent irritation.
Step 4: Fight Chafing with the Happy Nuts Anti-Chafe Comfort Stick
Chafing is one of those annoying issues that can ruin your entire day—whether you’re working out, walking around in the heat, or just going about your business. If you’ve ever dealt with thigh rub, underarm irritation, or discomfort in sensitive areas, you need a reliable anti-chafe solution. And guys, stop trying to "tough it out". No one is watching you suffer through your irritated balls.
That’s where the Happy Nuts Anti-Chafe Comfort Stick comes in. This easy-to-apply balm glides on smoothly and creates a protective barrier to prevent chafing and irritation.
Why You Need the Happy Nuts Anti-Chafe Comfort Stick:
✅ Instant Chafing Protection – Creates a smooth, invisible layer that reduces friction.
✅ All-Day Comfort – Long-lasting formula keeps you moving freely without irritation.
✅ Mess-Free Application – No powders, no greasy residue—just smooth, easy comfort.
✅ Great for Any Area – Perfect for inner thighs, underarms, or anywhere prone to chafing.
💡 Pro Tip: Toss the Anti-Chafe Comfort Stick in your gym bag or travel kit so you’re always prepared, no matter where the day takes you. We apply the Anti-Chafe Comfort Stick to our balls whenever we are on a plane ride and it is the lifesaver of all lifesavers when it comes to travel.
Step 5: Lock in Hydration & Smell Great
Once you’ve taken care of sweat and chafing, the final step in your grooming routine is hydrating your skin and choosing a great scent.
Hydration is Key
✅ Use a Lightweight Moisturizer – Keep your skin soft and hydrated without feeling greasy. Our Comfort Cream keeps you dry without drying you out, but we wouldn't recommend covering your entire body in it
✅ Don’t Forget Your Feet – On the other hand (and foot), our Comfort Powder is perfect these areas that sweat AND dry fast, so give them some extra love.
Pick a Signature Scent
A well-groomed man should smell as good as he feels. Whether you prefer a subtle fresh scent or something more masculine and bold, find a cologne that works for you and apply it lightly—less is more. Not a cologne guy? Scented Body & Nut Wash plus Comfort Cream plus an all over deodorant (wink, wink) does the trick just as well.
Step 6: Stay Groomed On the Go
Life is busy, and seemingly we are all very much on the go, and sometimes you don’t have time for a full routine. But that doesn’t mean you have to sacrifice freshness and comfort. Here’s how to stay groomed on the go:
✅ Keep a Travel-Size Deodorant – A quick touch-up keeps odor in check (coming soon...)
✅ Pack Happy Nuts Comfort Cream – Stay fresh and dry anywhere.
✅ Carry the Anti-Chafe Comfort Stick – Instant relief from friction whenever you need it.
✅ Use Face Wipes – A quick refresh keeps your skin looking clean and energized.
The Bottom Line
Grooming isn’t just about looking your best—it’s about feeling confident, comfortable, and irritation-free every day. And the right products coupled with an ACTUAL routine, you can eliminate sweat, chafing, and discomfort for good.
So why settle for feeling “just okay” when you can feel fresh, dry, and unstoppable? Upgrade your grooming game today with Happy Nuts, your balls (and your whole body) will thank you.
