Beauty Pillow satin pillowcase - 60 x 70 cm

A satin pillowcase, instead of cotton. A small difference in your bedroom, a noticeable difference in your face in the morning.

Why satin and not cotton

Cotton is woven from short, upright fibers. Those fibers grip your skin and hair, and if you sleep on your side, you press your cheek into that fabric for eight hours. That is what you see in the morning as creases on your cheek, and what makes your hair frizzy.

Satin is woven differently: the surface is smooth, so your skin and hair glide over it instead of snagging. There is also a second difference. Cotton is highly absorbent and soaks up moisture, including the cream you just applied. Polyester satin does this much less, so your nighttime skincare stays where you put it: on your skin.

The fabric feels cool when you lie down, and stays that way for a while.

For whom

For side sleepers and stomach sleepers, as they will see the effect the fastest. For those with long or fragile hair, or extensions. And for those who use a serum or night cream in the evening and want to keep a bit more of it than what is currently soaking into the pillow.

If you always sleep on your back, you will notice the difference in your face less. In your hair, however, you will.

The practical side

Standard size 60 by 70 cm. Polyester satin. Machine wash at 40 to 60 degrees. The pillowcases are made in our own workshop in the Netherlands.

A tip that is often forgotten: buy two. One on your pillow and one in the wash; otherwise, you'll just have cotton back on your bed after the first wash.

What I would like to share with you

I want to be honest about this, because a lot is said about satin pillowcases that isn't true. A pillowcase does not treat acne, refine wrinkles, or regulate your sebum production. What it does do is eliminate friction and absorb less moisture, and those are two very modest things that are actually real.

And precisely because they are modest, I find this such a great product. It doesn't cost you any routine, any discipline, or an extra minute per day. You put it on your pillow and you're done. Of all the things I recommend, this is the one people are most surprised by, exactly because they don't have to do anything for it.

You usually see the sleep creases disappear within a week. For your hair, it takes a little longer to notice.
