15 Sets Of Cooling Sheets To Make Sleeping Hot A Thing Of The Past
So what did we look for when finding these 15 reviewer-loved sheet sets? 100% cotton and 100% linen reign supreme when it comes to cooling fabrics. Cotton is lightweight and breathable, and linen ups the ante by also being moisture-wicking. However, cotton is very durable (especially long- or extra-long staple cotton like Supima), while linen is less so.We also included a mix of sateen- and percale-weave sheets. Sateen sheets are super smooth, drape easily, and have a subtle sheen to them. Percale sheets have more of a crisp, cool feeling with a matte finish — think of a freshly laundered shirt! We'll also point out if the set is Oeko-Tex certified. This means it has been independently tested for harmful substances to ensure that it is suitable for humans to use — that's super important for something that makes contact with your skin on a nightly basis!We decided not to include bamboo sheets, as most of them undergo less sustainable production methods. Most sheets that advertise themselves as "bamboo" are actually made of bamboo-viscose (aka bamboo-rayon) or bamboo-lyocell, which are produced in ways that involve toxic chemicals that can become pollutants. You can read more about bamboo fabrics at The Council of Fashion Designers of America.Oh, and microfiber is not the best choice when it comes to staying cool. It's tightly-woven, meaning your body heat won't escape as easily.Okay, now let's find you a new sheet set!!!
A wildly popular 400-thread count cotton sateen cooling sheet set so soft and cooling, you'll never throw them off you in the middle of the night when you suddenly feel like someone cranked up the thermostat to 100 degrees. Bonus — reviewers say these hold up super well after repeated washings with very few wrinkles and no shrinkage!
A 100% European linen set that comes in a gingham pattern so country-chic it might just mentally transport you to a cozy cabin in the woods. Reviewers rave over them for their super lightweight feel. (Oh, and that there's an option without a flat sheet!)
A set made with 100% Egyptian cotton in a percale weave — which is perfect for curling up under on a 90+ degree day while watching Uptown Girls and singing along to 🎶na na na na na na na na, sheets of Egyptian cotton. 🎶 Oh, and Egyptian cotton is known for its durability, so these should last you for years to come.
A set of 100% organic cotton sheets that come packaged in a reusable fabric bag, which is so much better than the flimsy plastic other sets come in. Several reviewers say these are thin enough to feel comy for hot sleepers, yet sturdy enough to stand up to many washes — one reviewer says years worth!
A splurge-worthy set of Supima cotton sheets with a super smooth sateen weave that'll tell night sweats to take a hike. One reviewer even compared these to hotel sheets, which is truly the highest compliment you can give to a sheet set.
A set of 100% cotton sateen sheets that are BELOVED by Target reviewers. No, really, I think some of these reviewers are counting on these becoming a family heirloom. That's probably because of the smooth 400-thread count wrinkle-resistant fabric, and the extremely helpful "top or bottom" tags so you know which side is which. If you've ever almost given up on making your bed and just flopping on the couch because you lined the fitted sheet's corners up incorrectly, these are for you.
A pure linen set so buttery smooth you'll roll around on it like a dog going carpet swimming. It's designed to absorb moisture without feeling wet to the touch, so if night sweats come to pay you a visit, they'll be quickly whisked away with barely a trace.
A set made with 100% pima cotton (meaning they're luxuriously soft, silky, and long-lasting compared to regular cotton fibers) and a percale weave for a crisp, cool feel and matte finish. And can we talk about the floral prints?! Absolutely stunning for any time of the year = worth the investment.
A set of brightly printed cotton bedsheets so you can add a vibrant summer vibe to your bed while you escape from the grueling summer temps. These get rave reviews for the bold prints that actually look as nice in person as they do in the product photos, and for having a ~crisp~ percale texture that'll give you that *fresh sheet* feeling every night.
A super sweet rainbow set — it's made with 100% cotton, meaning it'll be light and breathable enough to keep kids (or your inner child) comfy and cool all afternoon long, when it's time for a nap, *and* all night long.
A set of cotton sheets that'll combine your love for bold, vibrant patterns and breathable fabrics, thanks to the percale weave. The fitted sheet can easily fit mattresses up to 18 inches deep, so they might just make you dread sheet-changing-day a little less.
Or a cotton set featuring a super vibrant red floral pattern so you can make it look like spring every single day of the year. The breathable percale weave will also make it feel like spring too — not too cold, not too hot.
Or! A 100% cotton set made with a smooth sateen weave that'll drape super elegantly over your bed and basically turn it into a work of art. Reviewers say they hold up for years, and some have even picked up extra sets!
A chic set made with 100% stone-washed linen — come for the lightweight softness, stay for the dramatic flair of the ruffled pillowcases.
An absolutely adorable set made with 100% cotton and a percale weave — the coffee that's printed on them might be hot, but you'll stay as cool as a glass of cold brew. No judgment if they inspire you to have breakfast-in-bed and leave croissant crumbs all over them. It'll just elevate the vibe.

Israel kills dozens in Gaza amid growing famine fueled by restricted aid flow
Israeli gunfire and airstrikes killed more than 50 Palestinians in Gaza on Saturday, including some who were waiting overnight for aid, according to local health officials, continuing a pattern that has drawn international criticism as the country's 'drip-feeding of aid' into the enclave continues to claim lives. Dr. Khalil Al-Daqran, a spokesperson for Gaza's Health Ministry, said at least 52 people were killed in Gaza so far this weekend, including those waiting in line for aid at the Zikim crossing with Israel, 'a number of starving children' and a group recovered in southern Khan Younis. In the Zikim area, at least a dozen were killed as they waited for aid trucks, according to The Associated Press. The Israel Defense Forces did not immediately respond to a request for comment. The latest killings near an aid distribution site come amid what many have described as Israel's 'drip-feeding of aid' into Gaza, a tactic that has contributed to more than 120 deaths from malnutrition and left a third of the population on the brink of starvation. The criticism is disputed by the Israeli military, which says it has allowed in an average of 70 trucks a day since May. But aid agencies say hundreds more trucks a day are necessary to feed Gaza's starving population. Five deaths due to malnutrition were recorded in Gaza in the last 24 hours, the Palestinian Health Ministry in the territory said on Saturday. At least 127 people, including 85 children, have died as a result of hunger in the enclave since Oct. 7, 2023, according to the ministry. Earlier this week, 25 countries, including Britain, Japan and a host of European nations, issued a joint statement insisting that the war in Gaza 'must end now.' The foreign ministers of the nations called the recent killings of Palestinians seeking aid 'horrific,' which Gaza's Health Ministry and the U.N. human rights office estimate to be over 800. The latest prior instance involved the killing of at least 67 people as they waited for U.N. aid trucks in northern Gaza on Sunday. Israel said its military had fired warning shots into the crowd to remove 'an immediate threat,' adding that casualty reports were inflated. The Israeli military, which controls the entry of all aid into the besieged enclave, blames the U.N. and other aid agencies for failing to distribute the supplies. U.N. spokesperson Stéphane Dujarric told reporters this week that there was 'a lack of willingness' from Israel to allow them to distribute aid. Israel has accused Hamas of stealing U.S.-funded aid, citing that as a main rationale, along with the U.S., for proposing a new armed, private aid operation. But an investigation by the U.S. Agency for International Development found ' no reports alleging Hamas ' benefited from U.S.-funded supplies. In a statement, the IDF said USAID's report ignores 'clear and explicit evidence that Hamas exploits humanitarian aid to sustain its fighting capabilities,' and criticizes the military 'for routing decisions made specifically to protect humanitarian staff and shipments.' 'The USAID report represents a striking example of biased framing,' the IDF said. 'Instead of holding Hamas and other terror groups accountable for looting and obstructing aid from reaching the population, it assigns 'indirect responsibility' to Israel for the actions of armed militants and terror organizations.'

New Injectable Recommended by Europe for HIV Prevention
The European Medicines Agency's (EMA) Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP) has recommended granting a marketing authorization in the European Union (EU) for a twice-yearly injection to prevent HIV, in combination with safer sex practices. The EMA said Yeytuo (lenacapavir) was evaluated by the CHMP under an accelerated timeline due to its major public health interest in the EU and beyond. Yeytuo is anticipated to facilitate preexposure prophylaxis (PrEP) uptake and compliance as it only has to be administered twice a year, allowing patients to overcome several barriers associated with the daily oral pill for PrEP and other shorter-acting options. It also was recently approved by the US FDA. Thanks to advances in prevention and treatment, global HIV infection rates have been drastically reduced in recent years. However, in 2024, an estimated 1.3 million people became newly infected with HIV globally, including 160,000 new HIV infections in the European region. Moreover, in a recent report, the Joint United Nations Programme on HIV and AIDS (UNAIDS) predicted an additional 6 million new HIV infections and 4 million additional AIDS-related deaths worldwide between 2025 and 2029 resulting from the collapse of US funding. PrEP is a cornerstone of the global HIV response and is highly effective if taken properly. However, access to some PrEP medicines is limited, and adherence is often suboptimal due to various challenges, including the requirement to take a daily pill, stigma, and limited access to healthcare. Consequently, many people at risk for HIV acquisition remain underserved by existing PrEP options, highlighting the urgent need to develop — and distribute — innovative modalities. The CHMP's recommendation is based on the results of two randomized, double-blind, active-controlled, multinational trials. In the PURPOSE 1 trial, lenacapavir offered 100% protection against HIV among 5000 women aged 16-25 years in South Africa and Uganda. In the PURPOSE 2 trial, it offered almost complete protection among men and gender-diverse people aged ≥ 16 years who have sex with partners assigned male at birth in Argentina, Brazil, Mexico, Peru, South Africa, Thailand, and the US. In both trials, participants were randomly assigned in a 2:1 ratio to receive twice-yearly subcutaneous injections of lenacapavir or daily oral emtricitabine-tenofovir. Earlier this month, the World Health Organization (WHO) released new guidelines recommending the use of lenacapavir as an additional PrEP option for HIV prevention. It labeled lenacapavir as the next best thing to a vaccine and urged governments, donors, and global health partners to begin its rollout immediately within national combination HIV prevention programs. However, concerns have been raised about its price, with it currently being sold in the US for $28,218 per year. Its manufacturer, Gilead, announced last year that it had signed licensing agreements with six generic manufacturers to allow the production of low-cost versions of the drug for 120 high-incidence, resource-limited countries. The CHMP simultaneously reviewed the medicine for non-EU countries under a regulatory procedure called EU-Medicines for all (EU-M4All), which enables the EMA, in collaboration with the WHO, to more quickly make medicines available that address unmet medical needs, or are of major public health interest, in Europe and globally.
