FAQs

Is Slipsilk truly hypoallergenic?

Yes, Slipsilk has been laboratory-tested and is confirmed to be hypoallergenic, making it a suitable choice for individuals with allergies or sensitive skin.

How does Slipsilk compare to cotton pillowcases?

Slipsilk cotton pillowcases are significantly more gentle on skin and hair. They absorb less moisture, reducing friction and preventing sleep creases and hair tangles, unlike cotton which can be abrasive and absorbent.

Can I use regular detergent?

It is recommended to use a mild detergent specifically designed for silk or delicates. Harsh detergents can damage the delicate silk fibers and strip away their natural luster.

How often should I wash my silk pillowcase?

Washing your silk pillowcase once a week is generally recommended to maintain hygiene and preserve the silk's quality. However, frequency can be adjusted based on personal preference and usage.

Will using the pillowcase dry out my skin?

No, the opposite is true. Slipsilk absorbs significantly less face cream and moisture compared to cotton, helping to keep your skin hydrated throughout the night.

What is 'momme' and why is it important?

Momme (mm) is a unit of weight used to measure silk fabric density. A higher momme count generally indicates a denser, more durable, and higher quality silk. SLIP uses 22 momme, which is considered a luxurious and durable weight for silk pillowcases.

Can I tumble dry the pillowcase?

It is not recommended to tumble dry the SLIP Pure Silk Pillowcase. High heat can damage the silk fibers, cause shrinkage, and diminish the fabric's sheen. Air drying flat is the preferred method.

Troubleshooting

Pillowcase appears dull or loses shine.

This can occur from improper washing or drying. Ensure you are using a silk-specific detergent, washing on a cold, delicate cycle, and air-drying away from direct heat and sunlight. Avoid harsh chemicals or high heat.

Silk fibers feel rough or less soft.

Over time, friction or harsh detergents can affect softness. Review care instructions; gentle handling and appropriate detergents are key. Avoid fabric softeners, which can coat silk fibers.

Zipper is difficult to close or open.

Ensure there is no fabric caught in the zipper. Gently try to move the zipper back and forth. If persistent, a small amount of lubricant like graphite (from a pencil tip) applied to the zipper teeth might help.

Stains on the pillowcase.

For fresh stains, gently blot with a damp cloth. For tougher stains, use a specialized silk stain remover or consult a professional dry cleaner experienced with silk. Avoid aggressive scrubbing.
