As someone who struggles with acne, I will do whatever it takes for clear skin. I make it a point to use a new washcloth each morning, wipe my phone down with rubbing alcohol and properly clean my makeup brushes. I bought a silk pillowcase — it is known to be great for both your skin and hair – and called it a day.
But washing silk is an extensive process so — do not judge — I wash it every other week. And end up silencing my inner dialogue that says, “You go the extra mile to make sure you cleanse your face and apply your oil each night, yet your gorgeous face is lying on dirt, oil and product residue for eight hours (if you are lucky).”
And then, I stumbled upon Déjà, aka The Best Acne Pillowcase. Immediately, I knew I had to have it.

The pillowcase has eight different “pages,” which means you flip to a fresh sheet each night.
And, it is machine washable — for that reason alone I am in.
I know it is hard to break up with your silk pillowcase, but do not fear. The website claims that a silk version is in the works. And I will be dreaming about it on my 100-percent-cotton version ($44) until that day comes.
There are products that you buy that end up wasting away at the back of your beauty shelf, and then there are items that easily become a staple in your routine. This is a staple.
