We all love a good bit of beauty advice, right? Right. Well here is one that we often hear of but rarely go through with: Silk Pillowcases.

It’s said that they help keep your hair and skin at the best they can be. They also rarely suffer from the hot-side-if-the-pillow problem. So we haven’t got any silk pillowcases, we cant tell you. But we’re determined to find some now.

With winter coming around that corner faster than we care to think about, the time for stressed out skin and hair is almost upon us. Dry, cracked skin is the worst. At least when it’s warm out, your skin doesn’t physically hurt. But between the cold and the wind our skin goes through a rough time. Hair, too, has a lot to deal with in winter. Cold weather takes a toll, so we feel like we should take extra precaution when it comes to stopping the affects in their tracks.

Creams and hair potions aside, what could be easier than a pillowcase? All you have to do is sleep on it to see the affects. Anything that requires little to no effort is what draws our attention, and sleeping is right up our alley.

They aren’t the easiest (or cheapest) things to find, so a silk pillowcase should be treated as an investment. As any investment, proper care is necessary. Silk is pretty fragile, so you know, be gentle when washing and such.

If you know of any other simple but effective beauty tips and trick, be sure to send them our way on Twitter or Facebook. After all, we could all use more beauty tricks, right?
