Who says that sleeping on silk is only for women? This is a must for men too! June 05 2018

Men have many of the same issues that women have relating to staying young and hair loss.....and all the wonderful benefits of sleeping on silk, apply equally to men.

As a recap….        

Sleeping on silk is Anti-aging

Most importantly, it has been proven that silk prevents aging! Silk contains a natural protein and 18 essential amino acids. Studies have shown that amino acids can counter the effects of aging, especially in the facial skin and can help calm the nervous system. Silk also contains natural cellular albumen, which helps speed up metabolism of skin cells – thus helping to reduce signs of aging.

Unlike cotton (which is an absorbent fiber and draws moisture), silk will not absorb natural moisture from your face and hair, or facial beauty creams while you sleep. It therefore allows for more efficient use of night creams, providing better skin hydration which a clearer skin as the end result.

And then, of course, there are many health benefits

Silk is naturally hypoallergenic, making it a must for asthma patients and allergy sufferers – especially those with eczema – helping sensitive, dry or itchy skin. Hello guys….. how many of you suffer from allergies and wake up with red eyes and stuffy noses?

For asthma and allergy sufferers, there are many triggers such as chemicals and common indoor allergens which can aggravate both diseases. Medical experts advise that reducing exposure to allergens and irritants, such as dust mites and formaldehyde should be a critical part of patient’s asthma and allergy management plan.

For travelers with asthma and allergies, managing their exposure to allergens when they are away from home can be a challenge. Many bedding items contain unwanted chemical ingredients and finishes from manufacturing, and most bedding accumulates common indoor allergens during everyday use. SLEEP ‘N BEAUTY silk pillowcases are an effective chemical free barrier from these allergens. I take my SLEEP ‘N BEAUTY pillowcase with me every time I travel.

And let’s talk about hair…..

Hair care specialists recommend the use of silk pillowcases as sleeping on silk can help prevent thinning of the hair. Cotton may feel soft to the skin but its weave actually grips and tugs at individual strands, causing damage and breakage.

Guys, who is not concerned about balding? Honestly, try sleeping on silk.

Silk also stimulates hydration, giving shinier hair and reduces sebum production which in turn decreases the chance of having greasy hair. We have all woken up with bed head! SLEEP ‘N BEAUTY silk pillowcases prevent bedhead.

HOW SLEEP ‘N BEAUTY WAS CREATED April 09 2018

Up until just a few years ago I was a business banker. One day, as I was sitting in my office, dealing with yet another difficult client, a switch seemed to go off inside my mind. I had just turned 40 and I looked around at some of the long term bankers that I worked with who were mostly older, grey haired career bankers and I thought to myself that I needed to change my life. I did not want to spend the next 20 years of my life working for somebody else, probably in a bank, being answerable to somebody else and basically being in a 9 to 5 position. I am a single mom and I have two kids to take care of. So, my decision to leave my secure job in banking was not an easy one. In addition, in 2002, I had moved to the USA from South Africa. I left a fabulous lifestyle to take my family on a new and exciting adventure as we wanted to leave the uncertainly and political difficulties of South Africa and start a new life in the USA. At that time, I remember feeling as if I were standing on the edge of a cliff. I could have taken two steps backwards and stayed in my secure life in Cape Town, yet something propelled me forward and as I stepped off into the unknown, I remember quite clearly the fear and yet the exhilaration I felt as I created the opportunity to make my life into something entirely different.
