The Benefits of Silk

Silk protects your hair from damage and tangles

Fine thread particles and tight weaving prevent the hair ends from becoming trapped in the fabric fibres as it does with cotton and other fabrics.

​

​

Silk is anti-aging and prevents fine lines by not "grabbing" your skin

The smoothness of our silk pillowcases allows your skin to glide, whereas cotton and polyester grip and scratch the delicate facial skin, contributing to premature stretching and skin creasing. 

​

​

Silk is organic, naturally hypo-allergenic and chemical free

​

 

     Silk helps maintain, hair extensions, braids, damaged hair, eyelash extension and even men's beards

Eyelash extension and hair extension wearers experience a significant reduction in overnight shedding, breakage, matting and eyelash damage. Even men with beards or hair loss can benefit from sleeping on silk as silk will not snag and kink facial hair.Dermatologists agree that cotton and synthetic fabrics dry out the hair and skin.

​

Silk is breathable so it regulates temperature

Silk also allows the hair and skin to breath and  maintains a cool surface temperature keeping you comfortable all night. 

​

Silk is beneficial to all hair textures from baby fine to afro textured

​

Silk is ecological and 100% biodegradable

More About Our Silk

SCRUNCHIES: Our silk scrunchies protect your ponytail while keeping it secure. Unlike conventional ponytail elastics and cotton scrunchies they firmly but tenderly hold hair in place while preventing hair breakage and reducing « ponytail kink » They can be used to create the perfect messy bun, they look sweet and elegant and make perfect gifts.
 

 


HOW DO OUR PRODUCTS STAND OUT?


Our pillowcases and scrunchies have a shiny, charmeuse finish, so they feel smooth and luxurious.

​

Other non-charmeuse products lack any health and beauty benefits.

​

Silk is easily replicated by other "fake" synthetic products like satin and viscose.

​

We have taken great measures to ensure we are offering the real thing.


Made from 100% pure mulberry silk with a thickness of 19 momme, our  pillowcases are the very best available in Canada. 

Our products have been tested for 100% authenticity as there are many imitation fabrics on the market and our consumers can easily be duped into buying imitation silk.  


Silk is  naturally hypoallergenic, ecological and 100% biodegradable.



WHAT’S THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A SATIN PILLOWCASE AND A SILK PILLOWCASE?



Silk is a natural fibre, whereas a silk imitator such as ‘satin’ is a petroleum based, synthetic material. Satin takes up to 200 years to biodegrade, it is thinner, it ‘sweats’,and becomes rough and pills overtime, essentially negating the positive benefits of sleeping on a smooth pillowcase.
The smooth, charmeuse silk finish of our product is superior in that it’s more ecological, softer and breathes. Satin is a synthetic fabric, otherwise known as polyester.  It does have shine and feels soft, but simply does not offer the same benefits on a microscopic level.

 

 


WHAT DOES MOMME MEAN?


Momme is the measurement indicating the weight of the silk. The thicker or heavier the silk, the more it drapes, the softer it feels and the longer it lasts.   We have selected 19 Momme as our preferred measurement for  our products because of it's lightness, softness and affordability.
 

​


IS IT SAFE TO SLEEP ON SILK?


We have selected silk suppliers that meet the very stringent international Oeko-Tex® Standard 100 for fabric safety.
If you purchase a cheaper silk pillowcase online or in-store, you may not know what you’re really buying.
When it comes to silk you get what you pay for.

Cheap silk may simply not pass the safety and quality testing our suppliers have taken the time to enforce or it may simply be a silk imitation fabric.
 


IS SILK APPROPRIATE FOR ALL AGES?


Silk is beneficial to anyone, young and old! In fact its great for preventing bedhead in children and protecting their natural curls.  

It's great for coloured hair, curly hair, afro textured hair, hair extensions, bearded men, men and women  experiencing hair loss and those with delicate skin.
 


WHAT PILLOW SIZES DO YOUR CASES FIT?


Our pillowcases are available in Double/Queen  (fits both) size of 20” x 30” (51cm x 76cm) and a King size of 20" x 36" (51cm x 91cm).   We have done market research and have found that these two options suit the majority of households.


WHAT COLOURS ARE YOUR PRODUCTS AVAILABLE IN ?


Our pillowcases are available in PINK, MIDNIGHT BLUE, ONYX BLACK, PEWTER GREY, PEARL WHITE, SAND BEIGE.  (subject to availability)

Our scrunchies are available in PINK, CHOCOLATE BROWN, ONYX BLACK, PEWTER GREY, PEARL WHITE, SAND BEIGE, RUBY RED.

Our colour choices are based on research into current popular household bedding trends.  We look forward to offering more options in the future.
 


HOW DO I CARE FOR MY SILK PRODUCTS


Our  100% pure, mulberry silk products were made to care for you.  Here are some ways you can care for them.


Your charmeuse silk product has been made for you to use as a beauty product.


Our Silk products are machine washable.

Wash in a delicate cycle with cold water. Hint: Your silk pillowcase or Scrunchie will love you more if you hand wash it.

Use a PH balanced or "delicates" laundry detergent that specifies for “silk". Regular detergents can cause silk to loose its lustre and softness.
Do not use bleach products. Hang to dry.

Silk prefers to "bathe" alone.

Do not wash with items that have velcro, zippers, studs or other sharp details.

We recommend the use of a garment bag.
