Reasons To Buy And Sleep On Silk Pillowcases

Improved Skin Hydration

Remember ladies, silk is less absorbent than many other materials! This is why your pillowcase won't absorb oil, moisture, or your pricey face creams and serums. You may have fewer acne breakouts with a silk pillowcase. It's because the material won't absorb the extra oil and let it build up. It also means acne treatments will stay on your face! Cotton pillowcases absorb the moisture from your skin. This dries your face and makes it more susceptible to microabrasions, pulling, and other issues. Ladies, the lower absorbance of silk means you get improved skin hydration. It will leave your skin hydrated, healthier, and better able to cope! And don't forget about the reduced sweating from silk's breathability and temperature. Less sweat means fewer clogged pores!

Hypoallergenic

A silk pillowcase is a must when you have sensitive skin or allergies, ladies. Most pillowcases absorb moisture and collect bacteria and allergens. This is the trigger for skin irritation and chronic allergic reactions that interfere with your sleep and quality of life. Silk is a protein fiber. It's the natural product of the larvae of some insects, like the mulberry silkworm.

Since these creatures use the silk fibers to form their cocoons, they're created to protect the developing larvae from parasites. Ladies, this is part of what makes silk pillowcases hypoallergenic. Of course, this means they won't make allergies worse, though you'll still need allergy treatments. Chemicals the larvae use to create silk are naturally antibacterial! Using a silk pillowcase inhibits the build-up of fungus, dust mites, mildew, and mold. Other pillowcases don't do this. Ladies, these are the things that make your allergies worse!
