Not everyone is lucky enough to wake up in the morning feeling refreshed, bright eyed, and eager to face the day. Some of us wake up with creased cheeks, wild hair, and sallow skin. It’s easy to blame our looks on a lack of sleep or that late night snack we couldn’t resist, but something else might be to blame: your pillowcase. Your common cotton and polyester pillowcases can suck moisture from your skin tug at your hair throughout the night.
An anti-aging silk pillowcase slides against your skin and hair through the night, leaving you with smoother frizz-free hair and clearer skin. Read on for the best silk pillowcases available:
