Old Navy Satin Pillowcase for Adults I Editor Review
Old Navy never fails to surprise me. I bought some of my favorite clothing items from the retailer, including my latest obsession: a combo set So good that I believe it will sell out. But sometimes I find items that I never expected to come across. Case in point: my new favorite pillowcase (!) is from a retailer and yes, I was shocked when I found out. ‘s bed not at all Kind at Old Navy as you are.
Import satin pillowcase ($10, originally $20), designed with 100 percent polyester satin. I ordered two cream-colored ones – one for me and one for my fiancé – and we immediately swapped them out for old cotton pillowcases we’ve been using for years (love you). Curious about whether we like them or not? Keep reading for my honest review of the affordable price. (Spoiler alert: you probably need one too.)
What I like about this pillowcase
For starters, everything about this pillowcase looks and feels luxurious, from smooth satin texture to the envelope opening mode. For the uninitiated, the second pillow means that instead of opening on the sides, the pillow inserts in the middle, giving it a more polished look. (This is also super handy if your pillow is prone to slipping out of the pillowcase, which is an issue my partner and I addressed before purchasing these pillowcases.)
What’s worth noting about this pillowcase
If you’re new to the world of satin pillowcases, here’s what you need to know: satin (and silk, quite differently, FYI) is gentler on skin and hair than cotton. It is said to prevent wrinkles (and thus, wrinkle). Likewise, satin also helps your fibers retain moisture because it’s less prone to drying out than cotton. The more you know, right?
After researching reviews on this pillowcase, I found that some people mentioned that they noticed their hair became greasy after using it, but both me and my fiancé can attest that we don’t have that problem. In fact, lately I feel like my hair looks better than ever (probably because the satin prevents frizz from causing frizz).
Another important note is that you need to be very careful when washing satin pillowcases. According to the brand’s instructions, you need to machine wash it on cold and tumble dry on low to preserve the delicate fabric and maintain its shine.
Would I recommend this pillowcase?
Sure! To my surprise you can find a cheaper satin pillowcase on Amazon, but I cannot guarantee you they will be as high quality as these, having slept on them like a child in the past week. And do you see what other colors they have? I’m a neutrals enthusiast, but there’s no denying that both the “Pink Twister” and “Navy” colors are impressive.
Finally, if you want to upgrade your snooze game, you might want to consider the brand Satin pillowcase and sleeping mask set ($20, originally $26). Maybe it’s obvious, but you can’t go wrong with either option.
