Silk in the Bedroom – Your Complete Guide to Better Sleep & Healthier Skin
Why 100% Mulberry silk earns its place next to Supima cotton: what it does for skin and hair, how the pillowcase and sleep mask differ, and how to care for both.
Short answer: silk earns its place in the bedroom through the pillowcase first, since that's where the skin- and hair-friendly benefits matter most, with the sleep mask as a natural second step if light is an issue.
Start with the pillowcase
A silk pillowcase is the highest-impact place to start: less friction against skin and hair overnight, better temperature regulation, and naturally hypoallergenic. See our full guides to what mulberry silk actually is and why it helps you sleep.
Add the sleep mask if light disturbs you
If your room doesn't get fully dark, or you're sensitive to any light at all, the same silk that helps a pillowcase helps a sleep mask: smooth enough not to crease the skin around your eyes overnight. More in our guide to why sleep with a silk mask.
Know what you're buying
Our silk is peace silk, meaning the silkworms mature and leave their cocoons naturally rather than being harvested inside them. If that matters to you, it's worth reading what peace silk actually is.
Both the pillowcase and the mask are Grade 6A mulberry silk at 28 momme, made in Portugal, and cared for the same way: washed every two weeks, by hand or on a gentle cycle, never in the tumble dryer.
