Beauty sleep! According to webMD, “When it comes to your beauty routine, sleep may be the closest thing there is to a fountain of youth.” In fact, getting a good night’s sleep leads to a glowing complexion, fewer wrinkles, less puffy eyes and healthier hair — not to mention more energy! And one celebrity who understands the power of a solid sleep routine is the age-defying Kelly Ripa.

The Live With Kelly and Ryan host shared one of her best-kept beauty secrets with her audience in 2015: a silk pillowcase. “I sleep on a silk pillowcase because when I first cut my hair, I would wake up in the morning with crazy bedhead, like, all over the place!” the 51-year-old said. “And my hair stylist said, ‘You got to get a silk pillowcase to keep your hair under control and your face won’t wrinkle.’”

Who knew that youthful skin came down to quality sleep? As someone who owns a silk pillowcase, I can attest to its many benefits. Not only does it keep my face and hair from getting creased, but it also feels absolutely divine on my face. Below are two silk pillowcase options — premium and affordable. Don’t sleep on Ripa’s anti-aging solution!
