Do Silk Pillowcases Really Help With Premature Aging?

Prevent premature wrinkles and bedhead; Simply by sleeping on a silk pillowcase. 

Let's talk something that gets missed when discussing good skincare. 

A pillowcase. A SILK. Pillowcase. A mulberry. Silk. Pillowcase. 

Seriously, a silk pillowcase is one more tool in your beauty arsenal. 

Support skin health. Prevent wrinkles.

Studies show that friction from tossing and turning causes creases in the skin, but dermatologists say that a silky smooth surface can reduce this effect in the long run.

Let's give it everything we've got! And that includes while we sleep. 

Bonus! Similarly, with less friction on your hair, you're less likely to wake with frizz and tangles.

Does the type of silk matter? 

Yes, actually.

Mulberry is the highest quality of silk you can find. Think of it as the Egyptian cotton equivalent of silk: The fibers are longer and more uniform so the fabric is smoother and more durable. 

So, if you're going silk, go mulberry. 

Are there other skin benefits to a silk pillowcase? 

You bet. Due to the smooth texture of a good silk pillowcase, it is less likely to absorb moisture from your skin, which keeps your face better hydrated while you sleep- great in those drier winter months. 

A silk pillowcase is the perfect partner with your SBM Skincare. 

You take such good care of your skin with your dedicated rituals and high quality products, why waste all that with a regular ol' pillowcase? 

An Investment

A good quality silk pillowcase, such as Silken Pure, is an investment. One worth making if you can comfortably afford it. 

But, there is an alternative.

If you can't quite take the plunge with a pure silk pillow case, yet you want the same skin benefits, a faux silk case may be just what you want. It won't be as deeply luxurious, but it will be easier to clean and more durable.
