The Silk Sleep Cap

Mulberry silk is a smooth protein fibre — the same family of protein your skin and hair are made of. That means three things.

It has almost no friction. Cotton grips your skin and hair for eight hours a night, which causes sleep creases, frizz and breakage. Silk lets them glide.

It doesn't absorb moisture the way cotton does. Cotton drinks your skincare and your skin's natural moisture; silk leaves them where they belong.

And it regulates temperature naturally — breathable in summer, warm in winter, never clammy like polyester satin.

Not all silk is equal, though. Ours is *6A grade* (the highest, meaning the longest and purest fibres) at *22 momme* (a dense, substantial weight). Most brands don't publish either number.

Silk is more durable than people think — it just doesn't like heat or harsh chemicals.

- Hand wash in *cold water* with a gentle, pH-neutral detergent, or machine wash cold on delicate inside a mesh bag
- *Air dry* away from direct sunlight and radiators
- *No bleach, no fabric softener, no tumble dryer, no wringing*
- If you iron, use the lowest setting on the reverse side

Wash every 1–2 weeks with normal use. Cared for properly, real silk lasts years.

Yes. Our mulberry silk is *OEKO-TEX® Standard 100 certified* — independently tested to be free from harmful substances and safe for direct skin contact.

That matters here more than most places: this is fabric you press your face into for a third of your life.
