Your pillowcase could be the answer to everlasting good hair days.
Photo by Mert Alas and Marcus Piggott, styled by Edward Enninful.,"The number one cause of aging is UV damage, the number two is smoking, and the third is sleeping on a traditional pillow." If your response is"huh?" you're not alone. But the fact is, the market for speciality pillowcases that promise to cure everything from acne to split ends is on the rise.
Not all experts agree that the answer is in the pillowcase, though. Dr. Jeanine Downie, a New Jersey-based dermatologist, is skeptical that a pillowcase alone can prevent wrinkles. While she agrees that sleeping habits can expedite or delay wrinkle formation, the development of sleep-induced lines, she says, depends on pressure and positioning—not the material you’re sleeping on.

Celebrity fans includeWhile conventional cotton pillowcases can tug on sensitive facial skin, Slip silk allows skin to glide and consequently minimizes sleep creases, which are said to cause wrinkles over time.
As for claims of longer lasting blowouts and less frizz, Dr. Downie does recommend silk pillowcases for some extra hair TLC.

Also, this pillowcase heightens the tactile and aesthetic experience of sleep.
