How to wash silk?
Caring for your Eaven silk pillowcase properly ensures it stays soft, smooth, and beautiful. Here’s a complete guide on how to wash and maintain your silk products for long-lasting quality.
For best results, wash your silk pillowcase in cold water with a gentle, silk-safe detergent. You can place the pillowcase in a protective laundry bag and select a delicate or silk-specific wash cycle. Silk is a delicate fabric, so avoid bleach, fabric softeners, or any harsh chemicals, as they can damage the silk fibers.
Air dry only. Avoid direct sunlight, which can fade colours and weaken fibers.
Care Instructions
The better you care for your EAVEN silk pillowcase, the better it will care for you.
-
To preserve the quality of your silk pillowcase, hand wash or machine wash on a gentle cycle in cold water. Use a mild detergent, ideally one made for silk or delicate fabrics. Avoid bleach and harsh chemicals.
-
Air drying is best to keep your silk pillowcase in its original condition. Lay it flat on a clean towel or hang it in a shaded area to dry. If you must use a dryer, select the lowest heat setting and remove the pillowcase while it’s still slightly damp.
-
Yes, but use a low heat setting, and if possible, place a cloth between the iron and your silk pillowcase. Avoid direct high heat, as it can damage the fabric's natural fibers and finish.
-
For the best results and to maintain freshness, we recommend washing your silk pillowcase once or twice a week. This will help keep it free from natural oils, skincare products, and any dirt that may accumulate.
