Pillows are an essential part of our bedding, providing comfort and support while we sleep. However, over time, they can become stained and develop unpleasant odors, making them less inviting to use.
Why do our pillows turn yellow?
Pillows can turn yellow for a variety of reasons. A common cause is the accumulation of sweat, oils, and bacteria from regular use. These substances can be absorbed into the pillow’s filling material, causing it to discolor over time. Additionally, some materials used in pillow filling, such as feathers and down, can naturally yellow over time.
Another reason why cushions may turn yellow is due to exposure to sunlight or other sources of UV light. UV light can cause deterioration and discoloration of some types of materials, especially if not treated with UV-resistant chemicals.
Another possible cause of yellowing can be caused by contact with certain chemicals or pollutants in the air, such as tobacco smoke, which can discolor the pillow cover.
Luckily, there are several ways to keep your pillows fresh and smelling great without using the washing machine.
