WHY LEADING EXPERTS RECOMMEND MAYFAIRSILK PILLOWCASES
Reducing Hair Breakage
Our Mulberry Silk pillow covers maintain hair hydration and reduce hair tangles, frizz, and pulling throughout the night. This makes each morning easier, by reducing unruly bed hair, less frizz, unnecessary breakage and hair loss.
Wonder which one is better - silk or satin pillowcases?
Both pillowcases are known for reducing friction and therefore less hair breakage. However, silk pilllowcases are considerablly better that its synthethic satin pilllowcase counterpart, as the latter creates static, is clammy and hot because it does not breathe or have the same thermoregulating properties of natural silk. Silk just feels softer and more luxurious to sleep on.
Soothing to the skin
Silk pillow covers have proven to be a lifesaver for people with sensitive skin, especially for eczema and acne. Hypoallergenic, anti-bacterial, anti-microbial and free from harmful chemicals and dyes, Mayfairsilk is extremely kind to the skin.
Silk pillow cases are extremely soft on the skin. Cotton, flannel, and wool, which are rough short fibres, can generate creases, lines, and accelarate wrinkles around your eyes, forehead, lips and cheeks. You don't have to suffer irritation from your bedding any longer.
Sleep Soundly
Silk fabrics are breathable and temperature regulating to help your body maintain an optimum sleeping temperature. In the summer, silk is naturally cooling and vents excess heat. In the winter, it provides an insulation barrier, creating an air pocket between the lattice structure to warm you up into that optimum temperature band.
Silk bedding achieves this climate control through an intricate mechanism of thermoregulation that modern science has been studying to try and emulate.
Being a naturally breathable fabric with exquisite tactile pleasure, it promotes a dreamy, restful night's sleep.
There simply isn't a more ideal, luxurious, comfortable fabric to sleep on for 3,000 hours over the next year, or 30,000 hours over the next decade than Mayfairsilk.

Sleep better with 100% pure Mulberry Silk pillow cases in 25 momme
Our UK Standard Silk Pillow Cases (US Queen Silk Pillowcase) are naturally hypoallergenic, impeccably smooth, temperature regulating and reduce hair breakage and frizz.
Our silk pillowcases are free from all harmful chemicals and dyes in manufacturing and they naturally reduce the formation of dust mites, fungus, mould, and other allergens.
Measuring 50 x 75cm, our standard silk pillow cases are designed to perfectly fit the width of a UK King bed (measuring 5ft / 150cm across).
All our silk pillow cases are handcrafted from the highest Grade 6A long-fibre Mulberry Silk and have become recognised as the ultimate sleep accessory due to the advantages they offer for your skin and hair.
Silk has been regarded as the Queen of Textiles for over 4 millennia, and a prized secret of the orient for 2.5 millennia due to it's exquisite feel and ability to maintain your skin's natural beauty and youthfulness.
Recommended by dermatologists and hairdressers, Mayfairsilk helps your skin and hair to smoothly slide across the pillow at night. Conversely, cotton absorbs and retains moisture from your skin and hair, causing unwanted sleep wrinkles and hair breakage.
Ideal for people with sensitive skin, silk is a hypoallergic natural fibre which protects your precious skin and hair!
This is why it's important to invest in the best silk pillowcase available.
SILK PILLOWCASES for HAIR
Every night your hair endures hours of being pressed against your pillow. This constant friction leads to dry, frizzy hair, more prone to split ends and of course, a more difficult hairstyle to manage in the morning.
Regardless of your hair type - fine, thick, curly, dry or oily, our lush, exquisite and impeccably comfortable, silk pillowcases offer a wonderful alternative to ensure your tresses will be tangle free with greater luminance.
SILK PILLOWCASES for SKIN
Far less absorbent than classic cotton pillowcases, silk pillowcases won't extract the moisture and oils from your skin overnight. Silk pillowcases decrease the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles by protecting your skin’s natural hydration. Hypoallergenic and calming to the skin, the super-smooth texture not only feels great but helps you avoid facial sleep creases.
Upgrade your bedtime beauty regime with the best silk pillowcase, expertly crafted from the finest 25 momme silk.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Why should I use a high quality silk pillowcase?
Adding a silk pillowcase to your sleep routine can help retain your skin's natural moisture. In other words, they won't dehydrate your skin and hair like cotton does.
Silk pillowcases are also a better option for people suffering from acne as it's hypoallergenic and naturally antibacterial.
Likewise, if you have sensitive skin, high quality silk pillowcases are the best choice as they are hypoallergenic, mite resistant, free from harmful chemicals and dyes and calms the skin and nervous system.

-

Are silk pillowcases good for hair?
Yes, silk pillowcases are recommended by many top hairdressers as they preserve your hair's natural oils and moisture. This, along with its smooth action whilst sleeping, helps prevent breakage, matting, hair kinks, frizziness, and knotted hair in the morning.
Both oily, dry, curly and red hair alike all benefit from silk's natural properties. Many customers find it even extends their blow dry for a few days.
Do silk pillowcases feel hot or cause sweating?
No, they don't. Quite on the contrary, the high quality silk we use is breathable and temperature regulating to maintain your optimum sleeping climate. If you overheat in the summer, silk is naturally cooling and vents excess heat. In the winter, it provides an insulation barrier if you're cold, creating an air pocket between the lattice structure to warm you up into that optimum temperature band.
With its calming and climate control properties, Mayfairsilk helps you enjoy a deeper, super comfortable sleep without disturbance.
Are silk pillowcases difficult to look after? Are they machine-washable?
Well, not all silk can be machine-washed, however Mayfairsilk most definitely is machine-washable! This makes it easy to care for when you follow a few simple care instructions:
1) Wash silk separately using a delicate detergent designed for silk/wool.
2) Our silk pillowcases, being 25 Momme can be machine-washed on a delicate cycle or hand-washed.
3) Do not use fabric softeners or optical brighteners. Do not tumble dry. For drying, simply place between two cotton towels and they will absorb 80% of the water out of the silk, then simply hang dry in the shade.
4) Iron inside out whilst slightly damp, or steam to relax any creases. Your body heat will also relax creases over a few days.
5) Bed making: Here is a quick and simple method for putting a silk pillowcase on a pillow without ‘tugging’, as that can cause tearing over time. Roll/scrunch the pillowcase into a ring (shaped like a doughnut). Now fold the pillow lengthwise and pinch in the middle, insert pillow into the pillowcase ring. Align the corners of the pillow with the end corners of pillowcase and unroll gently using your other hand. Once fully unrolled, align pillow corners and close the envelope pocket. Reshape and place on the bed.
Is it appropriate to give just one silk pillow case as a gift and not a set?
We have found our customers gifting individual silk pillowcases to friends and relatives for birthdays, christmas and other important events as they are unique, thoughtful and beautifully packaged in individual gift boxes.
