Why Sleep Hygiene Is Essential for Your Skin (and Overall Well-Being)

When we talk about skin health, we often think about skincare routines, nutrition, or stress. But did you know that the quality of your sleep has a direct impact on your skin?

What Is Sleep Hygiene?

Sleep hygiene refers to the set of habits that help you get a restful and restorative sleep. These habits include:

  • Going to bed and waking up at the same time every day
  • Creating a clean and calm sleep environment
  • Avoiding screens before bed
  • Using clean, skin-friendly bedding

How Sleep Hygiene Affects Your Skin

At night, your skin goes into repair mode. Poor-quality sleep disrupts this natural regeneration process, which can lead to:

  • Dull skin
  • Breakouts and acne
  • Increased skin sensitivity

Additionally, traditional pillowcases made from cotton or polyester can accumulate bacteria and irritate the skin, especially if not changed frequently.

💚 Your Pillowcase Matters More Than You Think

That’s where LYOBED comes in. Made from natural Tencel, our pillowcases are:

  • Naturally antibacterial
  • Incredibly soft to reduce friction
  • Breathable, keeping your skin fresh all night long

Switching to a LYOBED pillowcase is a simple step towards better sleep hygiene – and clearer, healthier skin.


✅ Tips for Better Sleep Hygiene:

  1. Keep a consistent sleep schedule (yes, even on weekends)
  2. Avoid screens at least one hour before bed
  3. Air out your bedroom daily
  4. Wash your pillowcases at least twice a week
  5. Choose skin-friendly materials like Tencel for your bedding

Your bed should care for your skin, not harm it.
Make your pillow part of your nighttime skincare routine.
