Amazing Cooling Pillowcases – So Comfortable!
Color: Gray, Size: Standard (20" X 26")
I absolutely love these LUXEAR pillowcase They feel cool and soft and they really help keep my pillow fresh and comfortable throughout the night. The fabric feels high quality and doesn’t trap heat The size is perfect, and getting two in one pack is a great value for the price I highly recommend them if you’re looking for a more comfortable sleep

Not worth it
Color: Gray, Size: King (20" X 36")
These start out nice and cool but within minutes your body heat turns them warm. Not worth the money.

Great cooling effect!
Color: Stretch Blue, Size: Queen (20" X 30")
I love these pillow cases! They are the best cooling pillowcases I have found. They do still eventually absorb the body heat and need to be flipped over but so far, the cooling effect of these cases outlasts the rest. I have had them for 5 years now and will not use any other cases. They are smooth like silk so I think they are good for my hair as well. The color is pretty close to what is shown in the picture and they fit most standard pillows.
