Acne Hack - It Might be Your Pillowcase

Let's get real - when was the last time you changed your pillowcase? 

Did you know your pillowcase could be playing a major role in your skincare routine (or lack of it)?

Here's why it matters: 

Buh-bye Breakouts: A clean pillowcase = fewer chances for dirt, oil, and bacteria to clog those pores. 

Glow On, Girl: Fresh pillowcases help your skin retain moisture, giving you that natural glow we all crave! 

Beauty Sleep, Activated: A soft, clean pillowcase can help reduce wrinkles and skin irritation. Who knew?!

So, give your skin a little love tonight and swap out that pillowcase for a fresh one. Your face will thank you! 

P.S. Here is our recommendation for switching out pillowcases: 

1. For most people: Change at least once a week. 

2. For acne-prone or sensitive skin: Change every 2-3 days (also, look into a silk pillowcase vs. cotton)

3. If you sweat a lot during the night: Change every 1-2 days
