Personally, my head will not rest on a pillowcase unless it’s covered in silk. By now, upgrading to the lustrous, naturally hypoallergenic material is pretty mainstream — even your bald uncle probably swears by it for the hair benefits (‘hey, maybe it’ll grow back!’). But if silk is so good, why stop at your pillow? If it hydrates skin (less wrinkles), regulates temperature (every side is the cool side), and repels allergens — why wouldn’t you want it covering your entire body? To my delight, Cozy Earth has answered the call with its 100% Mulberry Silk Comforter (currently 20% off).
Skeptics might argue that pajamas and a duvet cover stand in the way, but investing in silk bedding can still matter — especially if you have asthma or allergies. Be honest: how often do you wash your comforter? (I won’t out you, but we both know it’s not enough.) Silk contains sericin, a protein that naturally repels dust mites and mold, making for cleaner, less irritating sleep — and potentially better skin, too.
