Cotton is absorbent and textured, which means it pulls moisture from skin and hair, absorbs skincare products, and creates friction throughout the night. Silk is smooth, tightly woven, and far less absorbent.

Studies show silk can reduce moisture loss by 2x compared to cotton, helping skin retain its natural hydration and allowing skincare to stay where it belongs. Less friction also means less irritation, a supported skin barrier, and reduced hair breakage.

Cotton works hard during the day.

At night, your skin deserves something gentler.

Yes. Dermatologists often recommend silk for sensitive and acne-prone skin because it creates a cleaner, lower-irritation sleep surface than cotton.

Silk is naturally hypoallergenic and less absorbent, meaning it doesn’t trap oils, dead skin cells, bacteria, or leftover skincare the way cotton can. Cotton fibers are porous and rougher by nature - they hold onto moisture and residue, creating an environment that can contribute to irritation and breakouts.

Silk’s smooth, tightly woven surface reduces friction and limits buildup, helping keep your skin calmer overnight. For acne-prone or reactive skin, that means less mechanical irritation, fewer clogged pores, and a more hygienic place to rest your face night after night.

It’s not a treatment - it’s prevention.

And prevention is where healthy skin starts.

Silk helps prevent sleep-induced creases and reduces nightly mechanical stress on the skin - one of the most overlooked contributors to premature lines.

When you sleep on cotton, friction and pressure repeatedly fold and compress the skin in the same areas, night after night.

Over time, these temporary lines can become more permanent. Silk’s ultra-smooth surface allows skin to glide instead of crease, minimising tugging and compression while you sleep, and doesn't absorb as much moisture from your skin, supporting your skin's overall health.

Caring for silk is simpler than most people expect.

Because our silk isn't heavily processed or treated with synthetic coatings, it stays soft and lustrous with gentle care.

• The Wash: Hand-wash gently in lukewarm water (30°C or below) for up to 5 minutes without scrubbing to keep the silk soft and lustrous. Always use a pH-balanced, enzyme-free silk detergent. Avoid standard detergents, as their enzymes actively break down silk proteins.
• The Rinse: Rinse thoroughly in cool water until completely free of residue.
• The Drying: Gently press out excess water with a clean towel, then hang to dry, avoiding direct sunlight or harsh heat.
• The Finish: For an ultra-smooth finish, steam lightly from a few inches away or use the silk setting on your iron on the reverse side.
  

With proper care silk maintains its softness, strength, and lustre far longer than lower-grade silks - making it a luxury that lasts.
