You can have the most gorgeous, soft, and silky bed sheets known to man, but if you’re sneezing and coughing all night because of allergies, those beautiful sheets are not going to help give you a good night’s sleep. Here’s what will: the best hypoallergenic sheets, which are made from natural materials like cotton, bamboo, and eucalyptus or a synthetic material with a tight weave that resists allergens.
Paying attention to fabrics is crucial when it comes to shopping for hypoallergenic sheets. Some cotton sheets, and especially organic cotton, are free of pesticides and chemicals are not used in their production, which reduces the chance that they will kick up allergies, though cotton cons are that they wrinkle and can shrink in hot dryers, so extra care is needed to keep them in good shape. Choose cotton sheets that are GOTS-certified or meet OEKO-TEX standards to ensure they’ve been tested for chemicals. Bamboo is another natural fabric that is hypoallergenic, safe for sensitive skin, and breathable, though it is prone to wrinkles and more expensive than cotton. Newer on the scene, eucalyptus sheets are eco-friendly, hypoallergenic, antifungal, and antibacterial, as well as cooling and less prone to wrinkles than cotton or bamboo, but are also more expensive than cotton.
Synthetic microfiber sheets, which are usually the most affordable of all of these options, can also be hypoallergenic, but the trade-off is that they aren’t as breathable as natural fabrics. No matter which fabric you choose, a tight weave like sateen or percale is preferable if you have allergies because it creates a barrier against dust mites.
Whether you need super affordable bed sheets or bed sheets to keep you cool at night, you’ll find them here. What won’t you find? Sheets that attract allergens and hold on to them for dear life. Your nights are about to become a lot more restful.
