"Beauty sleep" is more than just a saying. According to scientists, getting at least 7 hours of deep sleep a night can make a noticeable difference in your face. In fact, just one or two nights of short or broken sleep can age your skin in the following ways: 

  • Wrinkles
  • Dark circles under the eyes
  • Bags under the eyes 
  • Dry skin
  • Drooping eyelids
  • Swollen eyes
  • Drooping mouth

With just 5 hours of sleep a night instead of 7, you can expect to see double the number of fine lines on your skin, as well as dryer skin. Both fine lines and dry skin can make you look older, in ways that could become permanent if you experience sleep deprivation over the long term. 

While you have many ways to get good sleep, from keeping your room dark to removing technology from the bedroom, where you sleep can also affect both the quality of your rest, and your appearance.

Quality materials prevent wrinkles and crows' feet. 

Sometimes, sleep experts recommend sleeping on your back in order to keep yourself looking younger, because the pressure from your mattress or pillow can speed the development of wrinkles. 

However, there is an easier way to enjoy softer, smoother skin without changing your preferred sleep position: High thread counts and silk or satin sheets and pillowcases

When you lay your face down on a regular cotton sheet or pillow, the friction from the rough material can force your skin to fold over itself. This compression, over the course of night after night, can lead to the fine lines and wrinkles you want to avoid in order to look younger. 

Smooth materials, on the other hand, especially silk, apply less friction to your skin while you sleep. The result? Smoother, younger-looking skin and a fresh glow that lets everyone know you are enjoying restorative rest. 

A great mattress and pillow (Such as Dorelan's satin-encased Felicita pillow) will embrace high thread counts (Of between 200 and 800) and soft, luxurious materials so you can sleep more comfortably and wake up looking more youthful.

Superior bedding leads to better quality sleep.

If you want to look and feel your best, you need to get 7-9 hours of sleep a night. And, you need that sleep to be quality rest, which means your sleep should include the following: 

  • Falling asleep within 30 minutes.
  • Waking up no more than 1 time per night. 
  • Going back to sleep within 20 minutes of waking up at night. 
  • Waking up feeling rested

Your bedding can make a big difference in the quality of your sleep. The right bedding, including your mattress and pillow, can help you in the following ways: 

  • Support your preferred sleep position. 
  • Enable deeper and longer sleep.
  • Customize your sleep to your needs. 

To enjoy these benefits, you need to make the right choice in mattress and pillow. Consider leaving behind bargain basement mattress prices and distributors in favor of bedding that has been crafted using the latest technology and the finest materials. 

These products should also come with many options for covers, fabrics, and even features so you can choose the mattress that best fits your sleep needs, because bedding that supports and fits your lifestyle will deliver the deepest and most restorative rest.

A good mattress and pillow provide spinal support. 

A sore back or neck can make it difficult to get your beauty sleep. If you want to look younger, you need to invest in sleep-grade luxury hotel mattresses and pillows that support your spine all night long. 

For example, many of Dorelan's mattresses and pillows are made with their MyForm Memory Air technology that molds itself to your body for maximum support. The curvature of our pillows can also provide all-night spinal alignment and total comfort. 

Anyone with back or neck problems is accustomed to seeking out bedding that keeps their spine in alignment. However, the reality is that anyone can benefit from supportive bedding, because a comfortable bed means deeper sleep and fewer wake ups throughout the night. 

With the right support, you can sleep pain-free all night, and wake up with that rested, youthful glow that makes you look, and feel, younger. 

  • Provide sufficient support for your head, neck, and back. 
  • Make your bed more comfortable. 

A good mattress and pillow improves air circulation. 

Experts recommend keeping your room between 60 and 72 degrees Fahrenheit, because cooler temperatures tend to create better sleep. However, a good mattress and pillow can also deliver a superior sleep experience, and that well-rested youthful glow you desire, by regulating air flow while you sleep. 

Cooling features tend to focus on air flow and the use of breathable materials that do not restrict the movement of air through the mattress or the pillow. For example, our MyForm Memory Air technology utilizes an open cell structure that encourages the cooling flow of air around your body and face. 

Similarly, our Myform Memory Clima with D/Cool technology regulates the temperature between your body and the mattress. Together, these materials create a cooling, relaxing environment that allows you to sleep as long as necessary to appear younger and awake rejuvenated. 

Good sleep can transform your appearance by reducing wrinkles, bags under your eyes, dry skin, and rapid skin aging. To get that sleep, you need to have a high-quality mattress and incredible pillow to deliver the supportive, comfortable, and cooling experience that drives better sleep.
