As someone who is a fairly restless sleeper – I’ve all but grown accustom to awakening each morning with various Pillow marks and creases – indented into my skin. Initially said marks would quickly disappear but with each passing birthday, they take longer to plump out; the more stubborn marks can require some fairly vigorous massage, not exactly a huge hindrance but not something I always have the time to do. A few months ago I made a vow to find a more permanent solution and stumbled across the Jasmine Silk Pillowcase.
Now there are several silk brands out there offering similar products but Jasmine Silk comes with the seal of approval from no less than Vogue and Elle! Another deciding factor for me was the fact that Jasmine Silk offer various shades and sizes of silk bedding products meaning you can select items that not only suit your needs but also your decor style too. As I have a fairly pink home, I decided it only made sense to pick up the Jasmine Silk Pink Housewife Pillowcase (from £25)- a dreamy, dusky, pastel hue that makes me feel like a 1950’s starlet each time I climb into bed.
My particular pillowcase is constructed of 100% charmeuse Mulberry silk, a finely woven material that is exceptionally strong and yet gentle to both the hair and skin. As someone who is used to sleeping on cotton bedding, I thought it would take some time to adapt to the fabric change but I couldn’t be more wrong. The Silk constantly remains constantly cool in temperature and is nothing but comfortable -and dare I say luxurious – to sleep upon. There are also zero fancy care requirements; simply wash at 30 degrees in a standard washing machines and you are good to go.
So why swap to a Jasmine Silk Pillowcase? Silk is an exceptionally delicate, gentle material and as such it creates a softer sleep environment, the natural slip of the fabric prevents tugging and pulling of the skin, in return reducing aforementioned facial lines and creases. Silk is also non-absorbent, making it ideal for dryer skin types to prevent moisture loss throughout the night. The lack of absorption can also benefit those with blemish prone complexions as there is zero oil transfer helping to prevent further skin issues.
If that’s not enough, the texture of the Jasmine Silk Pillowcase is also wonderful for hair of all types and textures. Silk helps to create a natural glossy sheen on the hair follicle as well as preventing tangles and knots whilst you sleep.

– Sponsored Content – Winter is tough enough without having to content with a coldsore or two, something I am unfortunately plighted with on and off throughout the course of the year. Like many in a similar predicament I have tried various lotions, potions and frankly bizarre remedies with next to no luck, so when presented with the opportunity to try a quick and easy solution in the form of HERPOtherm®, I all but jumped at the chance.
If like myself you have ever encountered a coldsore, you will be all too aware of the dreaded tingling sensation that often occurs the day before it rears its ugly head. The good news is that irritating sign that something is awry is actually your chance to act with the HERPOtherm® and lessen the symptoms. If applied earlier enough the HERPOtherm® can prevent a blister appearing full stop and if applied after said blister has sprung, it can lessen the appearance by up to 50%!
As you can see the HERPOtherm® is barely larger than your standard lipstick so it is compact enough to pop into a pocket and yet it may just be your secret weapon against the plighted coldsore virus. I also think it is well worth mentioning that as this is not a cream or standard beauty product, there is no expiry date so no need to worry about waste and as it can be used over and over again, you are doing your part for the environment as well as blitzing coldsores. If that is not enough it is safe to use on kids (under 12’s will require assistance), whilst pregnant and for allergy sufferers too. I also personally like that as this is not a topical cream, there are no tell tale signs of application nor greasy textures to contend with meaning you don’t have to reconsider your make-up choices.
Using HERPOtherm® couldn’t be easier nor quicker: simply place the device onto the affected area (before or after the coldsore appears), then gently apply to the skin. Press the button and ensure that the ceramic contact surface (the little white disc on the top of the device) heats up to around 51°C. To ensure you don’t over apply,said heat temperature is only maintained for three seconds. The HERPOtherm® switches off automatically after the allocated time has passed so there is no need for a timer. As a little side note, for best results please ensure that you have full contact with the skin, even the smallest of air gaps can affect heat distribution. Do not exceed a maximum of five applications per hour on the same skin area.

If you suffer from coldsores, you really must try the HERPOtherm® for yourself.
You can get your own HERPOtherm® via Amazon prime ordinarily for £36 but if you order now, you will receive £5 off – link.
