You've made the switch to silk - an investment that you will have no regrets about as you start to notice your hydrated skin, smoother hair and a better night's sleep.
However you need to care for your new silk products so that they can continue to care for you.
Our entire range at Princess & Pea is made using high grade 6A 22 Momme Mulberry Silk. This means that they can be machine washed unlike most silk products that need to be dry cleaned.
It's easy to maintain the quality of your silk, just follow these simple steps below.
Place your silk product inside a delicates wash bag. (For pillowcases, ensure it is turned inside out and the zip is closed).
Either hand wash or place your products in the washing machine on a cold delicate cycle.
Be sure to use a pH-neutral laundry wash that is specific for silk. It is important that you use a detergent that doesn't contain enzymes or bleach that will damage your silk.
After wash is finished, allow your products to air-dry out of direct sunlight.
For pillowcases, use a cool iron to remove creases. Eye masks will require a warm iron to return original shape.
