Lab-tested antibacterial performance

Independently tested by Intertek for antibacterial performance under laboratory conditions.

Brighter and smoother skin in 2–8 weeks.

Copper is an essential cofactor for lysyl oxidase - the enzyme that cross-links collagen and elastin to keep skin firm.

Made from 100% Copper-Ion Bamboo

Unlike silk, which is unsustainable, our Bamboo fibre is smoother, and better for hot sleepers.

Better Sleep. Better Skin. Better Tomorrow.

Sleepy Face’s proprietary bamboo-derived textile is smoother than silk.

Intelligent fabric for sleep and skin.

Kind to Skin

Our bamboo weave lets sensitive skin breathe all night (Standard 100 by OEKO-TEX®).

Durable

Designed to resist pilling with normal use and care, and copper provides antibacterial activity within the textile under tested laboratory conditions.

Frizz-free hair

Our ultra-smooth weave reduces the friction that frays hair overnight.

Benefits

Built on more than a decade of clinical research into copper pillowcases.

Silk is smooth, but it isn't antibacterial. Silver fabrics kill bacteria, but do nothing for your skin.

Copper does both. It's woven permanently into our breathable bamboo, it clears 99.9% of bacteria and fuels the collagen that keeps skin firm.

Sleepy Face works on four things.

Clearer skin, firmer skin, smoother hair, and cooler rest, every night, while you do nothing.

Your pillowcase is dirtier than your toilet.
A week-old, unwashed cotton pillowcase carries 17,000 times more bacteria than a toilet seat. That’s 3 million bacterial units per square inch, pressed against your face for eight hours a night.

Sleepy Face fixes that.

Published double-blind clinical studies of copper-containing pillowcases have reported reductions in the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, alongside brighter-looking skin, within 2-4 weeks.

Sleepy Face pairs copper-infused fibre with independently tested antibacterial performance for a cleaner sleep surface.

What does it do?

ONE | Kills bacteria on contact. Copper ions bind to bacterial cell membranes and break them down, stopping the breakouts a normal pillowcase feeds.

TWO | Reduces wrinkles and fine lines. Clinical trials recorded average reductions in wrinkle depth of ~9% per month with regular use.

THREE | Builds collagen and elastin. Copper is a required cofactor for collagen (types I, II, V) and elastin synthesis, the proteins that keep skin firm and resilient.

FOUR | Lifts and brightens skin. Independent trials measured statistically significant skin lifting on the cheek and eye area, plus improved brightness, within four weeks.

FIVE | Reduces hair friziness. Our weave has a lower friction coeficient (0.12) than silk (0.15 to 0.45), meaning it is much smoother. This significantly reduces hair frizz.

SIX | Handles moisture better than silk. You might think we’re biased, so we tested it. Our bamboo weave disperses moisture faster than silk, helping it feel cooler, drier, and more breathable through the night.

Materials

100% natural fibre. Our proprietary bamboo weave is built on the same principle as TENCEL®, but finer, with a lower friction coefficient. Smoother against skin and hair than TENCEL® or silk.

Copper ions are impregnated directly into the fibre at the source, not coated on top. They do not wash out, and they do not fade with washing.

OEKO-TEX 100 certified. Every fibre has been independently tested and verified free from harmful substances, safe for direct and prolonged skin contact.
