19 Momme White Silk Pillowcase With Man-Made Fabric Underside

We know that the best silk pillowcases are not cheap. However, are they really expensive as such? It all depends on what you compare them with. The price of a silk pillowcase can be many times the cost of a cotton equivalent, yes. But the cost is also comparable to various face creams. You might spend £50, for instance, on one pot of night cream. How long will that last you? A few months at most. A silk pillowcase will last for years, making it far better value for money.

Silk pillowcases are so worth it. Not least because they don’t absorb all that pricey face cream in the same way that cotton would, leaving your skin to reap the benefits of silk. They are great for sensitive, dry, irritated, spot-prone and ageing skin, as the surface is much softer and doesn’t drag as you move during the night. The means silk pillowcase fans wake up with fresher, plumper, younger looking skin after enjoying the pure luxury of sleeping on silk.

Silk pillowcase users also enjoy sleeker, smoother hair that’s easer to control and style. It is also less prone to frizz, damage and dryness. So yes,if you want frizz free hair a silk pillowcase really is worth the money.

While it’s true part of the reason why silk is good for your hair concerns the smoothness of the fabric, this is only some of the story. The reality is, silk and satin are very different. Silk is an entirely natural fabric, as well as being super smooth. Satin, on the other hand, is man made. As you may know, synthetic fabrics often cause static. That’s why people often get a small electric shock when pulling a nylon jumper over their head.

Static causes friction, which is not good for your hair at all. Silk is much more gentle on your hair precisely because its super smooth, static-free surface causes far less friction when strands come into contact with - and move over the surface of - your pillow during the night. The thicker, more finely woven strands of premium quality silk make a fabric that is more gentle on your hair than any other.

There really is no contest. As touched on above in the first question, silk is a naturally sleek fabric. Satin is synthetic, and as such often causes static. The leads to friction - which is bad news for both skin and hair. Friction is to blame for all kinds of evils, such as frizzy hair and pillow creases on the face.

Real silk looks better in your bedroom, too. It has a natural lustre that man made fabrics can not replicate, and if you invest in the best silk you really can see the difference. Our silk pillowcases are also available in a huge range of dark, pastel, subtle and bright colours, as well as a selection of gorgeous printed silk fabrics.

Natural, premium quality silk is always a much better choice. You may save money by buying satin, but you will also skimp on the benefits. As well as missing out on the luxurious look and feel of pure mulberry silk. It really is incomparable.

It depends why you’re asking. Is it better for your hair? Yes. Kinder to your skin? Again, yes. Does it feel utterly luxurious? Of course. Is it better than satin? Yes, because it’s a gentler natural fabric, that doesn’t cause static or friction. Will you actually sleep better? You may well do, not least because silk is better at preventing you from overheating as you sleep, and this if often the cause of wakefulness.

A silk pillowcase looks better and feels amazing. Moreover, it has incredible benefits for your skin and hair. Silk fans report smoother, softer skin, with fewer wrinkles. Those who suffer from sensitive skin conditions like acne, psoriasis or eczema report far less skin irritation after sleeping on silk. Likewise, those with frizzy or unruly hair find their locks far easier to tame.

It really is better to sleep on a silk pillowcase. But do make sure you select only the best silk pillowcases.
