BEAUTY SLEEP... On a Memory Foam Pillow
Memory foam pillows are now recommended for beauty as well as comfort. A recent Turkish study published by the Scandinavian Journal of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery and Hand Surgery shows that burying your face in a regular bed pillow can cause wrinkling over time. It seems that regular bed pillows put pressure on your skin, which reduces circulation. Plus, the wear and tear on the skin from rubbing against the fabric of the pillowcase breaks down the collagen in the skin, causing lines. Sleeping on your back with your head straight rather than sleeping on either side would obviously prevent these wrinkles. However, not everyone is comfortable sleeping on their back all night. Therefore dermatologists are recommending memory foam pillows with soft cloth pillowcases (silk, satin, or high thread count cotton) to minimize the wear and tear on the skin. In today's image-conscious society we need to do what we can to preserve our good looks. Or for those of us who weren't blessed with the perfect face, we need to do what we can to feel good about ourselves.
