I will pretty much do a lot to prevent and/or slow down the whole “wrinkle effect” that takes place when we age. I’ll use the serums, the moisturizers, the exfoliants, the whole kit and caboodle. I’ll even do my absolute favorite – Get some beauty sleep! What can I say? My bed is scandalously cozy.
What I won’t do is lie like a corpse in bed. Have any of you heard of this? Refusing to allow your face to touch pillow so as to prevent any smooshing? Basically forcing yourself to lie on your back with no movement and expecting to sleep like that for eight hours (okay, who are we kidding, six hours. You know I never get to bed on time).
Uh no.
I have a very simple outlook on life. I need to make it as enjoyable as possible. I spend a third of my life in bed. I’m going to enjoy my sleep thank you very much. Stomach down, head buried in my pillow.
What I will do however, is use a silk pillowcase! More gentle on the skin, doesn’t absorb any product you put on your face, and doesn’t damage hair. Yes, yes, and yes. THAT I can do!
They run the gamut from affordable to pricy. I personally use the Celestial Silk pillowcase which you can buy from Amazon. It’s currently priced at $36.99. FYI, this comes beautifully packaged and would make a fantastic gift (Mother’s Day anyone?).
You can also go fancy and get the Slip Silk pillowcase from Nordstrom for $85 to $105.
