1. Eucalypso Home
Sustainable Materials | Tencel Lyocell from eucalyptus
Sizes Available | Twin, Full, Queen, King, Cal King
Sheets Starting At | $195 for twin set
Eucalypso Home is best known for its Tencel Lyocell bedding, due to its proprietary DreamWeave™ Technology that makes the fabric “silkier and cooler to the touch.” And that treatment seems to do the trick: These sheets are moisture-wicking, gentle yet luxuriously soft, and as comfortable as they are cooling. Plus, if you’re a fan of bright or pastel colors, you’ll enjoy some of the limited edition options here from “spring green” to “whisper pink” to “lilac love.” If you’re not sure if these sheets are for you, you can always try the eucalyptus silk pillowcases first before committing! (But don’t worry, you can also get a refund within 30 days if you need.)
