Few dudes will praise testicles as the most comfortable accessory of their physique. The nether regions face an onslaught of foes like sweaty balls, jock itch, chafing, and swamp crotch. Body powder, an old head of freshness, defends against many of the same problems our nads face. Is body powder the solution for fresh balls?
From Baby Powder to Ball Powder
In 1893, baby powder was launched in the US to the cheer of sleep-deprived Mammas everywhere. Labeled for toilet and nursery use, it didn't take long for dudes to begin experimenting with it.
The first powder's main ingredient was the now controversial talc. Talc is a mineral composed of magnesium, silicon, oxygen, and hydrogen. You may recognize talcum powder from super babe McKayla Maroney's hands as she vaulted to USA gold.
Talc's purpose is to block moisture and promote dryness. As we know, friction can lead to chafing, sweating, and stinky body parts. As scientists began to recognize talc as a possible harmful substance, body powders utilized other ingredients.
The talc-free evolution utilized natural ingredients like cornstarch. It's moisture eliminating technology makes it a practical antiperspirant. With the addition of fragrances derived from menthol, witch hazel, green tea, or essential oils, body powder is a deodorant too.
Why do Deez Nuts Need Special Care?
The scrotum and the testes contained within create and store sperm for males. This makes our family jewels an essential component to the creation of life itself. Holding this valuable cargo means special protection.
Overheating is the primary danger for sperm production. Apocrine glands cover the scrotum as a defense. Our body's primary response to heat is sweat. Think of the apocrine glands as super sweat glands. Unfortunately, this protection creates some really sweaty balls.
The increased sweat production isn't the only concern for the man berries. With such proximity to the thighs, the nutsack is a constant source of friction. With friction comes the dreaded chafe.

Junk to Avoid
TalcWe need to get with the times, people. Yes, talcum powder was great for dryness in the 1880's but a growing consensus of scientists label it harmful. We especially don't recommend it for your pride and joys down below.
AluminumYes, it has powerful antiperspirant abilities but at what cost? It is a heavy metal, after all. For any body powder, especially some for your balls, go aluminum-free.
Artificial fragrancesStick to as close of an all-natural product as possible. Chemical-based fragrances might smell nice, but you don't even know what's in them.
ParabensParabens are chemicals and artificial preservatives. They have their uses but covering your coin purse ain't one.
