Pillow covers serve as accessories. There is a big difference between pillow covers and pillowcases.
Without pillow covers, all you get are shredded chunks that form a memory foam pillow.
Pillow covers are what holds the material that creates the pillow itself.
The types of material that a pillow cover is made of affects your health and the quality of sleep you get. Cooling and natural covers work best.
Natural covers
Natural covers like bamboo and cotton which are made out of all-natural ingredients are moisture-wicking and highly breathable. Their hypoallergenic nature makes them good for your health. Besides natural materials tend to last longer than their counterparts.
If you tend to sleep hot, then you should choose a pillow with a cooling cover.
Cooling pillow covers are great at keeping you cool. Their open-cell nature helps promote a free flow of air, keeping you cool through the night.
Synthetic materials like polyester, on the other hand, aren’t the best option as they are made from petrochemicals, are of poor quality, and sleep hot.
A pillow cover is as important as the pillow itself, choose the right cover. A good cover will also be durable.
