Maybe it's the fact I live in London (where the water is very, very hard) or that I recently turned 31, but I've started to really notice those little lines that I wake up with around my eyes — I sleep on my side with my face seriously scrunched into the pillow — sticking around until well after my first cup of coffee. So, when Cozy Earth kindly offered me the chance to test one of its silk pillowcases, I thought it was about time I jumped on the bandwagon.
The benefits of silk pillowcases, by now, are generally well understood. Smoother hair, it's softer on your skin, hypoallergenic, naturally thermoregulating... so, what's taken me so long? Honestly, I was hesitant about the work involved in washing silk pillowcases, and I don't particularly love the lustrous look of the fabric against my otherwise crisp cotton bedding.
