The Beauty and Wellness Perks of Pillowcases

 

If you find it hard to sleep at night, perhaps it's because you're using the wrong type of – pillow and/or pillowcase! Yes, according to both beauty and wellness experts, pillowcases are seriously hailed for bringing forth a host of beauty and wellness perks, from reducing split ends to wrinkles, frizz and more. Read on to find out the many beauty and wellness benefits of pillowcases. 

Clean Pillowcases Help Block Allergens and Irritants

Regardless of whether you're into pillowcases for crafts, or for its real-world applications, perhaps you'll now realize that the cheap pillowcases you're using were actually the culprit for not just your bad hair days, but for your other skin issues! 

Most dermatologists agree that unless your allergies are directly linked or related to your bedding, do not bet on it, because your pillowcase could be the main culprit! So, if you do suffer from allergies, make sure to regularly wash your bedding and pillowcase, and try to add a mattress protector to block environmental irritants and allergens. 

Certain Pillowcase Fabrics Help Prevent Split Ends

Some health experts also agree that certain pillowcase fabrics like silk can help prevent frizz and tangles, although further studies are still needed to determine if silk pillowcases can help prevent or eliminate hair damage or breakage. So, whether you're into pillowcases for crafts or you're a a simple pillowcase user, perhaps it's time to check this information out! 

They Can Improve Skin Hydration

Again, certain pillowcase fabrics such as silk and satin have been noted to help reduce wrinkles, as well as improve skin hydration, which in turn can improve your overall appearance. However, if anti-aging is your main objective, keep in mind that wrinkles and fine lines only account for 5% of your face, which means that you might need to fight dull, uneven skin tone using certain products or treatments. But, whether you're a pillowcase fanatic or just into  pillowcases for crafts, I guess this piece of information would still be real good news! 

They Keep Your Hair Healthy

Plain pillowcase users, as well as those who are into pillowcases for crafts, would also love this  piece of information, as health experts agree that in some ways certain pillowcase fabrics help keep hair hydrated. 

For example, silk pillowcases can help reduce brittle hair, and leave adequate hydration right where it belongs (in your hair!), while cotton pillowcases absorb moisture from your hair. So, if you regularly suffer from a flaky scalp or dry hair strands, I guess a silk pillowcase would be a blessing from heaven! 

Pillowcases Help Regulate Temperature

And yes, certain pillowcase fabrics or materials also help regulate body temperature. For example, silk and satin fibers were noted by researchers to be inherently temperature-regulating. And unlike cotton, silk has the ability to wick away moisture to keep your skin dry, cool and relaxed all night long! 

So, whether you're a pillowcase addict, or simply into pillowcases for crafts, while not all pillowcase fabrics may help prevent acne and other skin breakouts, at least they help improve skin hydration, keep your hair healthy (somehow) and help you sleep soundly at night!
