Why 100% Mulberry Silk Pillowcases Are the Ultimate Luxury for Your Skin and Hair

Have you questioned how some individuals wake up with radiant skin and seemingly perfect hair? The likelihood is that the trick is not only skincare, but also the bedding they sleep on. Introducing 100% Mulberry silk pillowcases, a simple shift in your nightly routine that helps provide your skin and hair the TLC it needs!

At Kantha Originals, we value beautifully handmade, high-end products that not only look great but do good for the world. Our Mulberry silk pillowcases are made with love and provide a tiny bit of everyday luxury in your life, while supporting Indian women artisans.

The Benefits of Bed Linens Made of Mulberry Silk

Silk has been adored for decades for its buttery softness and natural beauty. What distinguishes the 100% Mulberry silk pillowcase even more is the quality and natural benefits of the fiber:

Incomparable softness: Mulberry silk fibers are so smooth, you will definitely experience less friction against your skin and hair when measured against other fibers.

Natural thermal control: Silk regulates you in summer and keeps you warm in winter, and is perfect for year-round use.

Hypoallergenic advantages: Silk is resistant to dust mites and allergens, making it suitable for sensitive skin.

Unlike standard cotton pillowcases, which can pull at your hair and skin and absorb moisture, silk offers a smooth, airy surface that encourages a healthier, more relaxing sleep.

How Silk Pillowcases Benefit Your Skin

Your skin is sensitive, and the pillow you sleep on every night has a bigger influence than you know. Here's how 100% Mulberry silk pillowcases can help:

Anti-aging benefits

Cotton pillowcases can pull and stretch your skin while sleeping, leading to wrinkles after a while. Silk's frictionless surface prevents friction, which can prevent fine lines and maintain fresh-looking skin. These anti-aging pillowcases are an easy way to nourish your skin every night without having to alter your skincare routine.

Moisture retention

Silk won't absorb like cotton, so your evening moisturizers and serums stay on your skin instead of being absorbed into the fabric. That maximizes the moisture of your sleeping skin.

Gentle for sensitive skin

Silk is inherently hypoallergenic, so hypoallergenic pillowcases are the perfect choice for anyone with sensitive or reactive skin. No irritation, no flushing—just soothingly soft sleeping.

How Silk Pillowcases Protect Your Hair

Waking up with tangled, frizzy hair is frustrating. 100% Mulberry silk pillowcases can stop that.

Prevents hair frizz: The smooth, silky finish of silk does not allow for friction when sleeping, which can cause breakage and frizz. This is particularly useful for wavy and curly hair types.

Maintains hairstyles: If you have taken the time to style your hair, sleeping on silk maintains it in place while you sleep, and thus, there is no need to heat style daily.

Using a Mulberry silk pillowcase created in the United States or international silk sourced from reputable artisans allows you to provide your hair the gentleness it needs every night.

Choosing the Right Silk Pillowcase

With so many options, how can you tell which pillowcase is the best for you? Here are a few tips on how to find the right silk pillowcase:

Check the momme count: Momme is a measure of the thickness of silk. A 22-momme silk pillowcase, like those at Kantha Originals, is just right for being durable yet still soft.

Look for 100% Mulberry silk: They are mixes or cheaper silk, which do not offer the same benefits. 100% Mulberry silk pillowcases ensure purity, softness, and durability.

Consider size and color: Whether you have the standard, queen, or king size, choose a pillowcase to complement your beddings. Mulberry silk comes in various colors to suit any bedroom color scheme.

Check certifications: OEKO-TEX certification assures your silk is chemical-free, so your sleep is safe and luxurious.

Taking Care of Your Silk Pillowcases

We get asked one of the most frequent questions, which is, "How do I wash and take care of Mulberry silk pillowcases?" Here's a quick guide:

Hand wash or delicate cycle: Cold water only and mild detergent meant for silk.

Steer clear of strong chemicals: Bleach or strong detergents will destroy silk fibers.

Air dry or low-temperature dry: High heat can harm the silk.

Proper storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve color and softness.

Gentle care will keep your pillowcase for years, maintaining its luxurious feel and its healthy benefits.
