Does the steam smell like noodle soup too?

Combat the dry winter air and keep your skin hydrated with this fun humidifier. The Cup Shitsuki looks at first glance like a typical pack of instant noodles or cup ramen. Not so: it’s actually a nifty humidifier that can work with a USB connection or a regular AC adapter.

And unlike real cup ramen there are two neat sliding stands at the bottom that you can use to prevent the humidifier falling over on your desk. It also stops automatically when the water runs out so you don’t need to keep checking the level.

Classic robot fart?

In the dry desert climate of Tatooine the Sand People have a real complexion problem.

They’ve tried coating their skin with Bantha blubber and experimented with Jawa dung. However in the end the Sand People were forced to wrap their faces with strips of corse burlap and call it a day. That was until these R2-D2 USB Humidifiers came along.

Now the Sand People can fill these mini droids with water and plug them into their laptops for a soothing mist. We’ve found that the climate of some offices is almost as dry as Tatooine, so Earth based humans can enjoy as well.
