60 Hours in NYC with Silked: Beauty Sleep in the City That Never Sleeps


 

Let’s be honest—travel can be thrilling, but beauty routines? Not so much. Hotel pillows, dry cabin air, unpredictable weather—it’s a glow-down waiting to happen. But when you’re a Silked Sleeper, you don’t leave your beauty sleep to chance.

So when we touch down in New York City for a whirlwind 60-hour work/play trip, the Silked Silk Pillow Sleeve is the first thing packed—and the last thing you would ever leave behind. 

Travel tip: JetBlue, vacation package made the trip so easy, we booked it all at once, flight, room and car from their site, round trip, and got a few perks like free adult:) drink on the flight.

Check-in, But Make It Silked

We arrived at the Tryp Wyndham Hotel in Downtown Newark—hello, skyline views and luxe vibes—and immediately unpacked the essentials: Silked Essential Serum, Silked one-of-a-kind Robes, and of course, our Silk Pillow Sleeves.

You know hotel pillows… fluffy, yes. Friendly to skin and hair? Not always. That’s where Silked saves the day (and night). We slipped the sleeves over our pillows and turned that hotel bed into a self-care sanctuary.

Day 1: City Chic & Sleep Prep

After a day of work with a little shopping in SoHo, and a piece of live music with drinks at Bitter End Bar in Greenwich Village.

We returned to our room ready to wind down. The city lights twinkled outside, but we were all about silky dreams inside.

With Silked by our side, we woke up to:

  • Smooth, frizz-free curls
  • Hydrated, glowing skin
  • Zero pillow creases (and zero regrets)

Day 2: Canal Street Exploration & Broadway Comedy Nights

Ready to take on day 2, we both applied a layer of Silked Essential Serum to our skin to get a layer of protection on before we headed out into the elements of the NYC climate, which can be very drying.

After a whirlwind day kicking around Canal Street and Manhattan Times Square, we had a spectacular night taking in Comedian Earthquake on Broadway at the Sony Theater, we were ready to rest our tired muscles so we used Silked NEW Heated/Cooling Aromatherapy Eye Pillow, collapsed into our Silked sanctuary again—and slept like royalty. 

60 Hours Later: Rested, Radiant, and Ready for Anything

We boarded our JetBlue flight home with glowing skin, happy hair, and memories that’ll last forever. Our NYC trip was short, sweet, and seriously rejuvenating—all thanks to a little Silked magic.

So next time you travel, skip the guesswork and pack The Silked Pillow Sleeve. Your skin and hair will thank you.
