Bed Sheets - We spend a third of our lives under them! What are the best materials we should be using for a peaceful nights sleep?
The number one luxury bedding option. Egyptian cotton has longer, finer threads than regular cotton which allows the fibers to be more densely packed into each square inch of your sheets. Many manufacturers falsely claim to use 100% Egyptian cotton so be careful when shopping and look for the triangular Egyptian cotton certification badge. Alternatively use an online review resource to help you decide which sheets will suit your situation the best.
Pima cotton comes from the same species of plant as Egyptian cotton so the materials are very similar. They are known for their durability and a unique breathability, due to the make up of the thread weave.
Silk sheets have long been synonymous with opulence and luxury. They are usually very expensive and have a distinctive feel, that you either love or hate.
Most of the time, bamboo bed sheets on Amazon are filled with materials other than 100% bamboo viscose or rayon. This means that the sheets are going to be much less softer than expected, making for an unpleasant experience. To guarantee the ultimate comfort, make sure that the bamboo bed sheets you're looking into are 100% bamboo viscose or rayon. This material provides incredibly comfortable, extremely soft bedding that's seriously hard to beat!
Tencel, also known as lyocell sheets are incredibly soft with hypoallergenic tendencies that are very good at wicking away moisture. They are great summer bed sheets and also have the added benefit of being less prone to wrinkling.
