Here is why pillows become yellow, and you should know what it means ππ
Pillows often develop yellow stains over time due to sweat, body oils, drool, makeup, and skincare products. Even with clean pillowcases, these substances seep through and discolor the pillow itself.
**Prevent Yellowing:**
– Use washable pillow protectors.
– Wash pillowcases weekly.
– Apply skincare earlier to reduce residue.
– Sleep in a cooler room to minimize sweating.
**Cleaning Tips:**
1. Check the care label.
2. Pre-treat stains with baking soda or vinegar.
3. Wash in hot water (if safe) with added vinegar or baking soda.
4. Dry thoroughlyβuse dryer balls to keep it fluffy.
**When to Replace:**
Pillows should be replaced every 1β2 years, especially if they stay lumpy or donβt spring back after washing.
While some people love their worn-in pillows, a little care can keep them cleaner, fresher, and more comfortable for longer.
