Whoever coined the term "beauty sleep" clearly never faced a mirror first thing in the morning, or spent an hour or more, like many of us, preparing to face the world after said sleep. Could there be something more to this theory of sleep-induced good looks? Or is it really all just hype?
My vote for the former is in, after stumbling upon the antidote to pillow-face itself: Branché's Charmeuse Case.
The pillow case is made from 22 momme weight silk -- said to be a 4,000-year-old curative skin treatment -- and has been proven to prevent facial lines from forming during the night. (And fewer lines during the night, means fewer lines down the road.) It'll also extend the life of a hairstyle or blow-out.
The secret? For starters, there's less traction between your face and hair and the silky surface beneath. (Compare it to rougher cotton or flannel types.) That means less frizz and breakage, plus smoother curls. But the real miracle behind this cure is the eighteen amino acids and a high copper content that is naturally infused into the fabric, adding body and shine to your hair and keeping fine lines at bay.
I can't decide which I love more: the delicious colors it comes in -- crème, blush, and sage -- or the delicious sleep I'm going to get as soon as I stock up!
