Summer is a favorite season for many, usually, it means spending more time outdoors with your family, taking part in more activities, or going on an adventure or break to wind down from your normally hectic lives. One downside of summer warm weather though? Night sweats.
It's common to rotate your bed sheets when a new season comes. Switching your brushed cotton and jersey bedding for linen or bamboo can help keep your bed cold. If you don't already have summer bed sheets in your linen closet, then it's about time you invest in some.
Bedsheets that are designed with keeping you cool in mind do more than just keep the sweat off your back, they also minimize bacteria that build up in moist environments which can cause breakout spots, and they allow your skin to breathe in the muggy atmosphere.
There are many options to choose from when shopping for bed sheets. Here are our picks for the best summer bed sheets that will keep you sleeping soundly.
