    It is truly a penguin-shaped dryer ball's world and we're all just living in it.

    1. A biodegradable Wet Brush that painlessly and efficiently brushes through wet tangles in any texture of hair. Less pain for Mother Earth, and less pain for you when you wake up with half your hair in your mouth again.

    2. A rose gold rechargeable electric lighter to replace all your old gas ones. This one is not only chic as heck, but completely flameless, and made with a long stem so you can use them to light gas burners and larger candles.
