Beauty sleep is important yes? Given that, a beauty sleep pillow makes perfect sense.
That's because these particular pillows are designed to help you to fall asleep more quickly and stay that way for longer. This means that your skin gets the rest it needs so that you wake up looking fresh and lovely.
But they do something else that's perhaps even more relevant - anti-wrinkle pillows are designed to minimise squish factor. That is, they keep your face from being mushed into the pillow meaning less-defined lines and wrinkles and puffiness too.
They also ensure your precious skincare stays on your face rather than smearing all over your pillow. They're also said to be good for acne (thanks to increased air flow).
Here, a quick look at the best anti-ageing pillows in Australia today.
The Save My Face La Petite Pillow, $25.50.
The Save My Face Pillow's innovative double crescent design elevates and suspends your face. This means that there's zero pressure on facial tissue and muscles while you get your beauty sleep. It works like this - you lie on your back, pop it behind your neck and then if you turn to your side your face is suspended between the crescent shape. So no smushing!
This particular anti-wrinkle pillow is a favourite for those who also wear lash extensions and do no want to damage them. It promotes restful sleep too.
This particular beauty sleep pillow is designed to prevent lines and wrinkles and also, ease ace and other related skin problems.
It does all this by preventing you from turning onto your side or front so there's no friction or dragging on skin. When tried and tested it's been proven that acne sufferers benefit from beauty sleep pillows thanks to increased air flow.
Matty Samaei Latex Forever Young Anti-Ageing Pillow, $150.
The Forever Young anti-wrinkle pillow is made of Latex meaning it offers the perfect combination of firmness and support.
Latex is quite firm, so it offers optimal support of your head and neck area. Latex pillows adjust to your movements and won’t go flat for many years. This means that they never need to be “fluffed.”
Latex also maintains its temperature so skin won't get over-heated.
Therapeutic Pillow Australia Satin Beauty Pillow, $95.
The perfect combination of memory foam and satin provides for the ultimate beauty rest say its Aussie creators.
And it really does! It feels a little weird at first, but once you adjust you'll love it. The memory foam is super soft and its contour shape sort of cradles your face, meaning less pressure to cheeks and eyes. The result - your face can fully rest and rejuvenate while you sleep. And, no morning wrinkles.
Juverest Sleep Anti Wrinkle Pillow with Cover, $299.95.
Designed by a board-certified plastic surgeon, JuveRest© The Sleep Anti Wrinkle Pillow is an easy-to-use, non-invasive solution to help minimise wrinkles caused by facial compression from pillow contact during sleep.
It's not the most attractive thing you've ever seen, but then again, who cares right? If it minimises fine lines and wrinkles then we'll take it! It works in the same way as many of the pillows in that you lie on your back and put it behind your neck which is supported. If you roll to your side your skin is never covered nor is your face smushed thanks to the C-shaped ends.
Reviews on the site declare it to be the best anti-ageing pillow available - and at that price it would want to be.
Nurse Jamie Beauty Bear Age Defy Pillow, $104.55.
Finally, the celebrity version which comes in all sorts of satin print including cheetah skin!
Satin coverings or satin pillowcases are an excellent way to ease fine lines and wrinkles because they do not snag on skin (or hair - extra bonus).
This version is favoured by the Kardashian-Jenner clan which means it sells like hot cakes. It works for those who sleep on their backs or turn to one side only, so one of the best anti wrinkle pillows for side sleepers.
At least it is pretty! And if you use it, so you will you be - what with your smooth, soft and glowing skin.
