Skin care products and makeup
Moisturizers, serums, and other skincare products applied before bed can also stain your pillow. Even after washing your face, residue can remain on your skin and transfer to the fabric overnight .
How do you prevent your pillows from turning yellow?
Fortunately, there are some simple tips to limit the occurrence of these stains and prolong the freshness of your pillows.
-
Use a protective cover
A waterproof or breathable cover acts as a barrier between your pillow and sweat or body oils. It’s machine washable and therefore easier to care for than the pillow itself.
-
Change your pillowcase regularly
Wash your pillowcases at least once a week to prevent dirt and oil buildup. Choose a 60°C wash cycle to effectively remove bacteria and residue.
-
Avoid oily skincare products before bedtime
If you apply a night cream, wait until it’s fully absorbed before going to bed . This will limit product transfer to your pillow.
