Silk Care Guide
Silk Care Guide
Silk is a delicate and luxurious fabric, requiring special care to maintain its beauty and longevity. Here’s how to properly care for your silk items, such as pillowcases, clothing, and accessories:
1. Washing
Hand Wash: Use lukewarm water (30°C or 85°F) and a mild silk-specific detergent. Gently swish the item through the water, avoid scrubbing or wringing.
Machine Wash: Use the delicate cycle and place your silk items inside a mesh bag to prevent damage. Always wash with cold water and mild detergent.
Avoid Bleach: Never use bleach or harsh chemicals as it will damage the silk fibers.
2. Drying
Air Dry: After washing, gently press out excess water using a towel and air dry your silk items in a shaded area. Avoid direct sunlight, as it can fade the color and weaken the fibers.
Avoid Tumble Drying: Never tumble dry silk as it can shrink or damage the fibers.
3. Ironing
Low Heat: If ironing is necessary, use the lowest heat setting and iron while the silk is still slightly damp, or place a cloth between the silk and the iron to avoid direct heat contact.
4. Storage
Store in a Cool, Dry Place: Avoid storing silk in damp or humid environments, as it can promote mildew and deterioration.
Use a Silk Bag: For storage, use a breathable cotton or silk bag to protect the fabric from dust and light.
Avoid Direct Sunlight: Keep silk items out of direct sunlight for extended periods to prevent fading.
By following these simple steps, you can ensure your silk products remain luxurious and last for years.
- Machine-washable in lukewarm water (30°C) on the most gentle cycle available.
- Minimize spin time.- Hang dry if possible, avoiding excessive exposure to direct sunlight.
- Tumble dry on a cool setting if using drying machine. Avoid drying for extended period of time.
- Iron when slightly damp using a cool setting. Always iron on the inside
- Use neutral or special detergent for silk.
- Keep out of touch of pets/sharp objects.
Benefits of Silk Pillowcases
Benefits of Silk Pillowcases
Silk pillowcases offer numerous benefits for both your skin and hair. Here are some of the key advantages:
- Reduces Friction on Hair
Silk pillowcases create less friction compared to cotton, which helps prevent hair breakage, split ends, and frizz. They are especially beneficial for people with curly or fine hair. - Prevents Wrinkles
Silk's smooth surface causes less tugging and pulling on the skin while you sleep, helping to reduce the formation of fine lines and wrinkles. It’s a natural anti-aging solution! - Keeps Skin Hydrated
Unlike cotton, which absorbs moisture from the skin, silk helps to retain your skin’s natural oils, ensuring you wake up with soft and hydrated skin. - Hypoallergenic and Gentle
Silk is naturally hypoallergenic, making it ideal for people with sensitive skin. It’s also resistant to dust mites and other allergens. - Temperature Regulation
Silk has natural temperature-regulating properties, helping to keep you cool in the summer and warm in the winter, providing a comfortable sleep environment year-round.

Silk Pillowcase Benefits
-
Helps with sleep
Silk pillowcases promote better sleep thanks to their softness, breathability, and natural temperature regulation. The smooth, gentle texture reduces skin friction, while silk’s breathable fibers keep you cool in warm weather and warm in colder temperatures, helping you maintain a comfortable sleep environment.
-
Effectively reduces frizz
The smooth texture of silk pillowcases helps effectively reduce hair frizz. Silk’s natural softness minimizes friction, keeping hair smoother and less prone to breakage and frizz. Studies have shown that silk pillowcases can reduce friction by up to 43% compared to cotton, which helps maintain hair’s natural shine and health.
-
Natural skincare
Silk, being a natural protein fiber, offers inherent skincare benefits. Its protein structure is gentle on the skin, reducing friction and preventing dryness, which can help maintain a healthier and more youthful complexion.

Choose a silk pillowcase that suits your pillow
1. The zipper style pillowcase is suitable for pillows with all types of fillings.
2. The envelope style is ideal for fillings like down, down alternative, feather, cotton, wool, buckwheat, kapok, and microbeads.
If your pillow filling is memory foam or latex, it’s best to avoid an envelope-style silk pillowcase, as it may slip off during the night.
What is momme silk?
Momme (abbreviated as mm) is a unit of measurement used to describe the weight and quality of silk fabric. It is similar to thread count in cotton fabrics but is more specific to silk. A higher momme count indicates a denser, more durable silk fabric.
For silk pillowcases, the momme weight is critical because it affects comfort, durability, and skincare benefits. 19 Momme best for Budget-friendly yet luxurious options; 22 Momme is Premium-quality, highly durable and long-lasting. 25 Momme is Ultra-luxury silk, maximum durability and opulence but expensive.
How to identify real silk and fake silk?
-
The sheen is different
Genuine silk has a unique, soft sheen that shifts colors gently under different light angles, giving it a subtle iridescence. Unlike real silk, fake silk often has a brighter, more uniform shine that appears static and lacks the depth and complexity of real silk’s luster.
-
Identify Real Silk with the Burn Test
The burn test can identify real silk: real silk burns slowly, smells like burning hair, self-extinguishes, and leaves a crumbly ash. Synthetic fabrics burn quickly, emit a chemical odor, and leave a hard, melted bead.

Let customers speak for us
from 63 reviewsI ordered this to use while I'm undergoing chemotherapy and radiation to help alleviate hair loss. It's wonderfully comfortable. Arrived as promised. I'd highly recommend it.
These are so soft and luxurious, Better than I hoped.
I am currently using this pillowcase in combination with another brand. I particularly enjoy the texture and feel of these pillowcases, as they give my pillow a pleasant sensation similar to a cool marshmallow – very soft and smooth.
I have been using these pillowcases interchangeably for a few months now. The stitching appears to be durable, and I have not encountered any issues with the zipper. The pillowcase comes with official OEKO tags that indicate its safety rating.
I have skin issues and this seems to help. Washes nicely.
These pillow cases are beautifully made! They are cool and soft and the hidden zipper keeps them on my pillow! I wash and dry them with my sheets and they come out perfectly! The cases always arrive in a timely fashion as well and are beautifully packaged. Top notch company and products!
I have gift these to so many people - love them. Perfectly soft and just launder like normal with everything else
I had been looking to use silk pillow covers and this did not disappoint.
I purchased two Mulberry Silk pillow cases from blisssleeps and I will be purchasing more in the future. I’ve purchased several, well known brand, silk pillow cases in the past at a much higher cost. I’m thrilled with these pillow cases. If they hold up well after 6 months I’ll leave my 5 star review, but if it falls apart or the zipper fails, you’ll notice a lower review, but for now “ blisssleeps Silk Pillowcases” are getting a HUGE 5 STAR Review ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Love the feel of the silk. I have purchased about 4 or 5 pillowcases and have loved sleeping on them!
Absolutely love this silk pillowcase, well-made, and good weight
I have naturally curly hair and this helps keep the curls for the next day. It also is feels wonderful on my face. I no longer wake up with lines on my face from creases in the pillowcase.
I was so happy to wake up without frizzy hair.
I’ve been on the look out for silk pillow cases as they are better for hair and skin. These were incredibly reasonably priced and are amazing quality. They do wrinkle easily but they have improved my skin and hair texture so it feels like an even exchange.
Keeps my hair in place
I ordered one pillowcase to try the product: It comes in a cute box with instructions on how to take care of the fabric and dos and don'ts. You can hand wash or delicate wash in the washing machine, turning it inside out before washing. I chose to use the delicate cold water option. I let it air dry and It wrinkled a bit, but the wrinkles faded away once on a pillow. I tried it out the next night. WOW! It is buttery soft and feels amazing on your skin. Better than others I've tried. The fabric doesn't slide all over the place as other variations have done. The zipper is hidden and you would never know it is there. I will be purchasing more to replace the ones that are not up to par.
