Which material is best for sensitive skin?

For sensitive skin, organic cotton is typically the best choice for toddler pillowcases.

Why organic cotton wins for sensitive skin:

• Chemical-free: No harsh dyes, pesticides, or synthetic treatments
• Breathable: Prevents overheating and irritation
• Gets softer: Becomes gentler with washing, unlike synthetic materials
• OEKO-TEX certified: Tested to be free from harmful substances

Bamboo-derived fabrics are the second-best choice as they’re naturally antimicrobial and hypoallergenic, though some children with very sensitive skin may still react to the processing chemicals used in bamboo-to-fabric conversion.
