If you're one of those people who can't nod off without a cover over you in bed, don't panic. We have a solution to help you get your beauty sleep during this heatwave: silk sheets. This completely natural material is not only suuuuper soft, but it's highly breathable, with thermal control properties that'll help keep you cool in the summer (way more so than cotton) AND warmer in the winter.
Regardless of the weather, though, there are other pretty decent benefits to sleeping in silk. I mean, tell me that slipping into something so smooth and soft every evening doesn't sound amazing. AND they look pretty good too. Nothing says sexy like silk, right?
There are some proper beauty benefits to using silk bedding (or a pillowcase, at least), too. The slippier material makes for a really smooth surface to lay your head on, causing less friction than the more traditional cotton, which helps to fight against wrinkles. Silk also absorbs less moisture than cotton, so it's a healthier choice for acne sufferers – it won't soak up so much grime and oil (ick) and so will keep things a 'lil more hygienic. It also means it won't absorb your skincare products – so they can stay where they belong, like actually on your face.
This smooth, frictionless surface is also kinder on your hair, causing less static and therefore keeping your curls or blowdry looking great for longer.
Sure, a decent silk bedding set is typically a liiiiittle on the pricey side, but that's what you get for investing in the best, tbh. If you're looking to treat yourself – you deserve it – then we've rounded up some of our fave silk sheets to shop right now.
