I have been using a silk pillow case since March and I feel like my acne has just gotten worse!?
I have always had a love hate relationship with my skin. It's super sensitive, and my acne tends to be deep under the skin. I have been on topical and oral acne treatments for a few years now, but have been hearing about how beneficial silk pillow cases are so I decided to try it out.
I had tried satin before and it didn't work - so I got some affordable mulberry silk pillow cases (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CGLJ5SZG?ref=ppx\_yo2ov\_dt\_b\_fed\_asin\_title&th=1) Since I have started using them, my break outs have increased dramatically. I tried telling myself it wasn't the pillow cases, that it was the face wash or the moisturizer etc, but the more I think about it, I think it is the pillow cases.
Is this a common thing? Does anyone have any advice on this? All the articles I have found on the topic are either from sketchy sites/trying to sell something and/or blame bad products. I talked with my derm and she says my routine is good - I don't know where I'm going wrong!
