Like a lot of money-saving hacks, adding water to your soap to stretch it out is actually eco-friendly and budget-friendly. This dispenser gets it, guys – it's specifically designed to dispense diluted soap because the pump inside likes a looser product to work with. While your soap and water combo makes its way up the pump of this dispenser, it becomes aerated and lathered into a foam so you don't have to use as much soap as you otherwise would. So simple, and yet so smart.

Bar soaps promise so much eco-friendly goodness in theory, but in reality, they often end up just sticking to your countertops and surfaces in a sticky, glue-y mess. This genius product help to prevent that by 1) lifting your bar soap from your surfaces, 2) absorbing any leaks and liquid that inevitably come off of your bars when after you've used them, and 3) encouraging air to circulate under your soap, helping to dry it faster. Oh, and it costs less than a fiver, too! I'll take nine, thanks.

It's filled with ionised beads which draw all the limescale and other minerals from your water, helping to give you a softer water experience (folks who paid attention in science class will probably know that soft water makes your soaps lather faster). It's a great way to keep those expensive shampoo bottles fuller for longer, and because it increases your water pressure, you'll be able to wash yourself faster as well – think shorter showers and less water waste. As if that wasn't enough, this handy AF shower head doesn't require any special tools, either! Just screw it into your existing shower hose and you're done.

All you'll have to do in order for these guys to work their magic is to put them in your tumble dryer, and then... nothing. That's it. Once they're in the drum of your tumble dryer, they'll start circulating, aerating your clothes for faster drying and softening their material by gently bashing against them.

I'm not saying there's nothing they can't do, I'm just saying that when it comes to drying laundry, there's an awful lot they can.

The centre of this ball is magnetised, removing limescale and other mineral buildup from your machines in no time with almost zero effort from you. It works by crystallising the minerals in the water, making sure they're flushed out of your machines along with all the other waste water instead of sticking to the inside of them and slowly building up. Your other descalers and cleaners simply cannot compete, people.
