Say Goodnight to Sleep Wrinkles

You wake up in the morning, look in the mirror and see bed face or sleep wrinkles. After washing your face and being up for awhile your circulation starts flowing and the sleep wrinkles disappear. But as you age these sleep lines are not so quick to go away. The skin loses it’s ability to bounce back due to a natural loss of elasticity. After years of sleeping with your face crushed to a pillow sleep wrinkles unfortunately become permanent. Ready to say goodnight to sleep wrinkles?

The first step is to think about your sleeping position. Most of us tend to sleep on our sides, chest or back. Side sleepers tend to form chest and cleavage wrinkles from that area being squeezed during the night’s sleep. Side sleepers also tend to form more wrinkles on the cheeks. Stomach sleepers have a tendency to get a furrowed brow from a night crushed into the pillow.

Though it is easier said than done you can retrain your sleeping position and sleep on your back. It usually takes several weeks to become accustomed to sleeping in a new position but it can be done. Take note that back sleeping can be problematic for some people because of the way it positions your tongue and throat. Pregnant women should also avoid back sleeping.

Hard synthetic pillows that don’t bend with the sleeper can result in more sleep lines than a light pillow made of natural materials such as a feather pillow. Feather pillows come in a range of prices. Find one that is antimicrobial. A high quality feather pillow will last for years, give you good sleep time and help prevent sleep wrinkles.

Another method that can greatly help you say goodbye to sleep wrinkles is a satin or silk pillow case. By using this type of material your skin glides against the fabric and is much less likely to crease. Satin and silk pillow cases are a bargain when you consider the sleep wrinkles they are saving your skin from. Simply covering any pillow you have with a satin or silk case will help prevent many sleep wrinkles from forming. A satin or silk case is one of the easiest, least expensive ways to say goodnight to sleep wrinkles.
