Silk pillowcases are my secret to better skin, hair, and sleep. Yes, these bbs are a must-have in your beauty routine. If you suffer from sensitive skin (like me), or are a curly-hair girl, like our ecommerce editor Christina, you'll seriously benefit from sleeping on a silk pillowcase — but only if you keep it clean.
There's certainly no point expecting glowing results from swapping out your cotton cover for a silky sham if you're not going to wash them. I'm talking more than popping it in the wash every other week with your bed sheets. Your pillowcase collects more dirt than the rest of your bedding. You put your head, hair, and neck on it night after night, and bacteria can build up pretty quickly. Plus, it only takes one late one when you *regrettably* slept in your makeup to stain it.
