This is a 100% mulberry silk pillowcase. Not a silk blend, not satin woven\nfrom polyester, and not silk on one side and cotton on the other. Both faces are\nthe same silk, so it does not matter which way it lands on the bed.
\n\nIt is 22 momme. Momme is simply how silk weight is measured, the way thread\ncount is used for cotton. Lighter silk around 16 momme feels thinner and wears\nout faster at the seams. Heavier silk above 25 momme costs considerably more.\nAt 22 momme this sits where most people want it: it drapes properly, it feels\nsubstantial rather than papery, and it survives regular washing.
\n\nIt measures 51cm x 76cm, which fits a standard European or UK pillow. There\nis a hidden zip along one edge, so the pillow stays inside it and you do not\nwake up holding an empty case. The zip is sewn in rather than sitting on the\nsurface, so there is nothing to press against your face.
\n\nYou can machine wash it. Cold water, gentle cycle, mild detergent, no bleach,\nand either line dry or tumble dry on low. Iron on the reverse if you want it\nflat, though most people do not bother. It is a pillowcase, not an heirloom.
\n\nSilk fibre has a smoother surface than woven cotton. Hair and skin slide over\nit instead of catching, which is why people who wake with creased faces or messy\nhair often prefer it, and why it is a common recommendation for anyone with\nlong or curly hair. It also holds less moisture than cotton, so it does not draw\nas much of your moisturiser off your face overnight.
\n\nThat is the honest extent of it. We are not going to claim this pillowcase\nreduces wrinkles, treats a skin condition, or is hypoallergenic, because we\ncannot show you the evidence for any of that. If you want one because it feels\nbetter to sleep on and it looks good on the bed, those are perfectly good\nreasons, and they are the real ones.
\n\nBlack, blue, brown, gold, lavender, light blue, mint green, pink, red, silver\nand white. Every colour is the same silk at the same weight and the same price,\nso pick the one you like rather than the one that is cheapest. If you want a\nlighter-weight option, the satin silk\npillowcase is the alternative, and it is a different fabric rather than a\nlesser version of this one.
