Why do beauty experts recommend silk?

Posted by Bob Verlaat on

Silk is regarded as among the most valuable fabrics on the market. So it appears that It should be only considered for special occasions. This fabric was designed for sophistication, elegance, and splendor from ancient Chinese dynasties' rulers to fashion queen Coco Chanel. Apart from its appearance and feel, silk is now purchased by anyone willing to invest in it for various reasons. Here are some of the most surprising silk benefits you may not be aware of, as well as why beauty professionals encourage using silk in your daily life. Not only for skincare, but also lingerie, hair, and various other things.

 

Skincare with silk

According to Jennifer Peterson, MD, a dermatologist at the Dermatology & Laser Surgery Center in Houston, silk's tightly woven, silky strands help keep moisture close to the skin. Consequently, your face appears more youthful hydrated when you wake up after sleeping on a silk pillowcase than if you slept on cotton. In addition, the strands of genuine silk are silky smooth and neatly knit. Silk is a godsend for persons with sensitive skin because of this. Silk pillows help to prevent wrinkles and cure a variety of skin problems. In addition, they moisturize the skin without removing it from its natural oils and moisture.

 

Silk lingerie help prevents diseases.

According to assessments undertaken by relevant Japanese authorities, synthetic fiber underwear, stockings, and other items worn frequently by Japanese young women have a higher prevalence of female bladder irritation, and more persons suffer from vulvar itching. Therefore, a joint trial investigation was undertaken in 1986 by different Chinese hospitals. Two hundred eighty-three patients with skin problems were evaluated by wearing silk knitted underwear to alleviate skin pruritus. The total efficacy rate for treating diverse skin conditions was 85.17, and the pruritus was calculated separately. The symptom's effective rate is 89 percent. It conclusively demonstrates that natural silk has a therapeutic effect on pruritus.

 

Silk helps to maintain healthy hair.

Natural qualities of silk, such as its smooth surface, can help prevent friction on your hair, leading to damage while you sleep. Split ends, knotting, and hair damage are all common side effects of friction. Silk's silky texture helps hair glide over it while you sleep, minimizing frizz, knots, and bed head. Silk pillowcases keep hair from frizzing. Silk's slick texture lessens friction while also preventing tangling and breaking. When tying your hair, use a silk scrunchie to prevent tangling. Silk hydrates your hair, making it stronger and less brittle. Silk seals in hydration and encourages natural movement, whereas cotton absorbs moisture and oils from your hair. Silk will be the gift you wish you'd given yourself if you suffer from dry strands or scalp discomfort.

 

Silk can help you sleep better.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) mentioned that around 70 million Americans have chronic sleep problems. While more severe difficulties (e.g., sleep apnea, anxiety disorder) are frequently the cause of sleep disorders, the sleep environment is also a significant role. Silk, a natural thermal regulator, can keep you comfortable all year long, whether the weather is hot or cold. Silk also keeps you dry and fresh because of its moisture-wicking qualities. So no more being drenched in sweat when you wake up! Instead, try silk bedding; it feels lovely and will keep you very comfy.
