Abstract: A pillow for supporting the head of a user during sleeping includes a main body formed of a resiliently compressible foam material in a generally rectangular configuration having opposite ends with opposed upper and lower surfaces extending between the opposite ends. The lower surface is configured to overlie stably on a sleeping platform, and the upper surface is formed with beveled indentations adjacent the opposite ends of the main body and with a convex contour extending lengthwise between the beveled indentations presenting a generally central crown area and inclined facial support areas respectively sloping downwardly away from the crown area toward the beveled indentations. Each facial support area is adapted to impart a pulling effect on the facial skin of a user when lying thereon in a downwardly sloping orientation with a cheek of the user's face on the facial support area and the user's face facing the adjacent beveled indentation.
