Lilysilk Silk Pillowcase

Momme (mm) is the unit used to measure the weight and density of silk. A 19 momme weight provides a balance of durability and a lightweight, breathable feel, making it an ideal entry point for those new to silk bedding.

The envelope closure features an inner fabric flap that tucks the pillow inside, ensuring it stays securely in place without the need for a zipper. This design is generally more comfortable for sleeping and prevents potential snagging or damage to the silk.

Yes, silk has a significantly lower friction coefficient than cotton. This reduced friction allows your hair to glide across the surface while you sleep, which helps minimize tangles, frizz, and mechanical breakage.

To maintain the integrity of the silk fibers, it is recommended to hand wash or machine wash on a delicate cycle using a pH-neutral silk detergent. Always air dry away from direct sunlight to prevent the fabric from becoming brittle.

Silk is naturally hypoallergenic and antimicrobial, making it a great choice for those with sensitive skin or allergies. Because it is less absorbent than cotton, it also helps your skin retain its natural moisture throughout the night.
