Anti-aging
Most importantly, it has been proved that silk prevents aging! Silk contains a natural protein and 18 essential amino acids so it can counter the effects of aging, especially in the facial skin and can help calm the nervous system and speed up metabolism of skin cells, thus helping to reduce signs of aging.

Temperature regulator
Silk is a natural heat regulator, maintaining the correct body temperature. It does not conduct heat or static electricity like other fibers. Heat is retained during cold temperatures and redundant heat is shed during warm temperatures, keeping your skin cool in the summer and warm in the winter.
Hair benefits
As an ultra smooth fabric, silk pillowcases won’t bind or catch hair the way man-made fabrics can. Hair glides on silk rather than rubs. This benefit is enhanced when the silk is pure long strand mulberry silk (cultivated rather than wild) and it is a traditional charmeuse (satin) weave, which gives a depth and even greater softness and smoothness.

What Is The Best Silk Pillowcase To Buy?

You must make sure that the pillowcase is 100% silk; there are many man-made types out there which you need to avoid. One recommendation is silk pillowcases which are made from long strand Mulberry Silk with a traditional charmeuse weave, feeling extremely soft, smooth, comfortable and breathable. Although silk pillowcases may be a little pricy, but your hair and skin will thank for them.
