To extend the life of your pillows and prevent them from yellowing, you must take the right steps to maintain them. To do this, it is advisable to remove the pillowcases every morning and open the bedroom windows, making sure to expose the pillows to the sun. This simple gesture helps to ventilate the bedroom and prevent excess humidity and the risk of mold in the bedding.
