Change Your Pillowcase Every 3-4 Days

The Problem

You change sheets weekly but your face rests on the same pillowcase for 7 nights. You have cheek/jaw acne.

The Hack

Change your pillowcase every 3-4 days. Buy 4-6 pillowcases and rotate them. Silk or satin pillowcases also reduce hair frizz and skin friction.

Why It Works

Your pillowcase accumulates facial oils, bacteria, saliva, hair product residue, and dead skin cells every night. This buildup transfers back to your face the next night, causing or worsening acne.

Pro Tips

• Buy a 4-pack of pillowcases for easy rotation
• Silk pillowcases: reduce acne, hair breakage, and sleep wrinkles
• Flip the pillowcase over for one extra night between changes
• This alone clears cheek/jawline acne for many people
