How do I wash my standard-size silk pillowcase?

For full, detailed care instructions, please see our dedicated silk care guide.

In summary, we recommend hand-washing or machine-washing on a gentle cycle at 30°C using a silk-friendly detergent. Always air-dry and avoid tumble drying or harsh chemicals to preserve the natural qualities of silk.

Are silk pillowcases good for your skin?

Yes. Silk’s smooth, low-absorption surface helps your skin maintain essential moisture overnight. This can reduce sleep creases and help your skincare remain on your face rather than being absorbed into the fabric. Many people find that silk contributes to a softer, more hydrated complexion.

Are silk pillowcases good for your hair?

Absolutely. Silk creates far less friction than cotton, allowing your hair to glide smoothly as you sleep. This helps reduce frizz, prevent breakage, and minimise tangles- making silk especially beneficial for curly, textured, or delicate hair types.

How often should I wash my silk pillowcase?

Most people wash their silk pillowcases every 1–2 weeks, depending on skin type and nightly routines. If you use heavier skincare or hair products, more frequent washing may be beneficial. Always follow the recommended silk-care instructions to maintain softness and colour vibrancy.
