What is the Silk Pillowcase made from?

Cozy Earth's Silk Pillowcase is made from 100% Grade 6A long-fiber Mulberry silk, the highest grade of raw silk available. Mulberry silk is produced by silkworms fed an exclusive diet of mulberry leaves, which results in the longest, most uniform, and smoothest protein fibers. The fabric has a high momme count for substance and is sandwashed for a soft matte finish.

What's the difference between silk and satin?

Silk is a natural fiber, while satin is a type of weave that can be made from many materials, including synthetics like polyester. Our pillowcase is made from 100% mulberry silk in a satin weave, so you get the genuine softness, breathability, and natural properties of real silk, not just the look of it.

Is the Silk Pillowcase good for hair and skin?

Yes. A silk pillowcase reduces friction against the hair and skin compared to a cotton pillowcase, which can help limit hair breakage, frizz, and pillow lines on the face. The smooth surface lets the hair slide along the pillow rather than catch and pull, and helps the skin retain moisture overnight rather than losing it to absorbent cotton.

Can a silk pillowcase help with acne or sensitive skin?

Silk can be a gentle choice for acne-prone or sensitive skin. Its smooth surface creates less friction and irritation, it is naturally hypoallergenic, and it absorbs less moisture than cotton, so more of your nighttime skincare stays on your skin. It is a supportive habit rather than a treatment, and washing your pillowcase regularly helps keep your sleep surface clean.

What does the aloe vera treatment do?

The Silk Pillowcase is treated with aloe vera, known for its soothing properties for both hair and skin. The treatment adds a subtle additional benefit on top of the silk's natural advantages (less friction, less moisture loss, cooler sleep), particularly useful for customers with sensitive skin or hair that tends to dry out overnight.

Is the Silk Pillowcase machine washable?

Yes. Cozy Earth's Silk Pillowcase is machine washable on the delicate cycle with mild detergent and cold water. Most premium silk pillowcases recommend hand washing or dry cleaning, which makes them a daily-care chore. Ours is engineered to handle machine washing, so the pillowcase stays in the rotation without extra effort.
