Why choose silk?☁️

Mulberry silk has been known for many years for their many key properties it has for the skin, hair, and for our wellbeing it highly recommended by dermatologists, hairdressers, and those in the health professionals. Silk is a natural fabric, compare to some synthetic fabric such as satin, polyester, nylon and rayon. Its structure is 87% similar with human skin, it is known as the second skin of the human body. Mulberry silk is a natural silk fibre made from the Bombyx Mori silkworm which is fed only on a diet of mulberry leaves.

Better Skin

Mulberry silk is known for its strength, soft, smooth texture and its numerous benefits it has for the skin and hair. It contains 18 kinds of amino acids and special protein known as sericin these help your skin retain moisture with its moisture-wicking properties, it allows moisture to be retained rather than absorbed, leaving skin more hydrated and plump, reducing dryness, it can minimize the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, and prevent sleep creases.

 It allows our overnight skincare products to be more effective by preventing our skincare products to be absorbed into our pillowcase whilst sleeping. It makes no sense if we do not sleep on mulberry silk pillowcases and spend so much on skincare products, as mulberry silk pillowcases do not absorb oils, dirt or grime other fabric pillowcases do. 

 

It is also especially good for those who suffers from eczema, acne, skin irritation, psoriasis, dry, and those with sensitive skin this is due to mulberry silk being naturally hypoallergenic reducing the risk of allergic reactions and flare-ups and the smooth fibers are gentle on the skin, mulberry silk is highly recommended by dermatologists, hairdressers, beauty experts and those in the health professions for its key properties it has for the skin, hair and our wellbeing.
