Answering Your Questions - Pure Silk Pillowcase

Is it worth getting silk pillowcases?

Yes, investing in silk pillowcases is worth it. Unlike alternatives such as cotton, linen or synthetic fabrics, silk pillowcases, especially those made from pure mulberry silk, offer superior quality, durability, and long-term value. Silk is naturally hypoallergenic, temperature-regulating, and incredibly gentle on the skin and hair.

With proper care, a pure silk pillowcase can last for years while continuing to deliver unmatched softness and elegance. If you’re looking to elevate your sleep experience with comfort and beauty benefits, a silk pillowcase is a luxurious essential.

Silk pillowcases are the perfect introduction to the world of silk bed linen – start here to experience the benefits for your hair, skin, and sleep. Once you’ve discovered the difference, you can indulge further by pairing your pillowcases with our full collection of silk bed linen and home furnishings, creating a beautifully coordinated space that exudes luxury and comfort.

What are the hair benefits of using a silk pillowcase cover?

Adding a silk pillowcase cover to your daily sleep routine offers a wide range of benefits, particularly in achieving glossy hair. The naturally smooth texture of silk significantly reduces friction as you sleep, which helps to minimise frizz, prevent tangles, and reduce morning bedhead. 

Silk’s gentle, non-absorbent properties also help retain your hair’s natural moisture and oils, making it especially beneficial for dry, brittle, or chemically treated hair. It’s a go-to choice for preserving blowouts, maintaining hairstyles overnight, and keeping curls defined and intact without losing their bounce.

Suitable for all hair types – whether straight, curly hair, or textured, silk helps maintain your hair’s shape and definition while enhancing its overall condition and appearance. By minimising friction and frizz and retaining natural moisture, it ensures your hair stays smooth, styled, and fresh each morning. Treat your hair with even more care and shop our silk hair accessories, including silk scrunchies to prevent further damage and hair breakage, or even give to a loved one as the perfect gift.

How does a silk pillowcase improve skin health?

Using a silk pillowcase can help improve your skin's health and natural barrier, especially for those with sensitive skin. The naturally smooth and friction-free surface of silk helps reduce tugging,  wrinkles, and sleep creases on the skin overnight, minimising fine lines and supporting a more youthful appearance. Unlike more absorbent fabrics, silk won’t soak up your skincare products or strip away natural oils, helping your skin stay hydrated and nourished while you sleep. Pair your silk pillowcase with our silk eye mask collection to ensure you're treating your skin with kindness.  

Its breathable, hypoallergenic properties also support a balanced sleep environment by regulating temperature and reducing irritation. For those prone to acne, silk’s resistance to bacteria and low-friction surface can help minimise breakouts and calm sensitive or inflamed skin.

How often should I wash and care for my mulberry silk pillowcase?

To keep your mulberry silk pillowcase looking and feeling its best, it’s important to wash and care for it properly. Ideally, wash it every 7–10 days using cool water (no more than 30°C) and a gentle detergent designed specifically for silk, such as our Liquid Silk Washing Detergent. Use a delicate cycle or opt for hand washing for added care. After washing, air-dry your pillowcase away from direct sunlight to preserve its natural sheen and softness. Lightly press with a cool iron if needed, and always store your silk flat in a dry, shaded place to prevent stretching or damage.
