Pillows are often overlooked heroes of the bedroom – loyal companions to your sleep, but over time they become a collection point for everything that shouldn’t be in contact with your skin.

And while it may seem inevitable that your pillow will turn yellow, there’s a completely natural way to restore it to that sparkling white without harsh chemicals or expensive cleaners.
