Janey Loves Silk Perfect Pillowcases


We all know about the importance of sleep
but did you know you can boost your health and improve your looks all while you slumber?   I am loving these gorgeous 100 per cent pure silk pillowcases but its not only about how luxurious they feel. 

SilkPerfect, Luxury 100% Pure Silk Pillowcases are expertly designed to minimise the signs of skin ageing, restore hydration, alleviate allergies and leave locks looking smooth and glossy, banishing bed head forever! The ultimate beauty sleep staple!

So how can a pillowcase be Anti- aging ?
After sun damage, one of the biggest causes of skin ageing comes from sleeping on traditional cotton, linen or polyester pillowcases.

Expensive night creams might promise to hold back the years, but sleeping on rough cotton pillowcases can limit their effect so by preventing osmosis, SilkPerfect pillowcases help to keep product on the skin, helping you to make the most of your beauty routine.

The best benefit for me has been my Hair !
Sleeping on cotton fibres can result in that waking up to the ‘dragged through a hedge backwards look’. Silk on the other hand is made up of strings of amino acid which has the same ph as your skin. It is these proteins that help to prevent fizzing and split ends, ensuring you wake up without the dreaded ‘bed head’. In addition, SilkPerfect helps to prevent the loss of natural oils leaving hair with a healthy shine.

Perhaps best of all for people with Allergies
·       Silk is naturally hypoallergenic helping to ease the side effects of eczema. Tests have shown that the majority of people with eczema have an allergic reaction to dust mites. House-dust mites thrive in warm, damp places and are found in greatest numbers in mattresses and bedding.
      
·       SilkPerfect 100% Pure Silk Pillowcases are ideal for helping to keep those mites away. silk contains the amino acid “Sericin” which holds an ‘anti-acarid’  property to prevent the growth of mites and mould.
·       Dust mites cannot cling to silk fibres, which ensures they avoid them in the same way a creature avoids spider’s silk. As a result, silk is inhospitable to dust mites.

Now if you’re concerned about silk, I’m reliably informed that these are  suitable for vegetarians. The amino acid strings (silk fibres) that make up our pillowcases are a by-product of the silkworms during their growth stage. Similar to wool and leather or honey and milk, Vegetarians choose whether to include these items in their life, depending the strength of their beliefs.


I should point out though that they aren’t suitable for vegans. Silk fibres are made from a  viscous protein substance secreted from the glands of silkworms which harden into silk on contact with air. This soft, lustrous fiber is obtained from the cocoon of the silkworm, and as an ‘animal’ product, is not considered suitable for vegans. 
Treat yourself to some luxury and benefit your hair and skin in the process.
