How should i wash my silk items?
We always recommend using our washing bag and PH-neutral liquid wash detergent. Use the program delicate or hand wash at 30 degrees and don't spin dry (centrifuge). Air/hang dry and iron the pillowcase for a soft effect once dry.

- iron on low inside out
- DO: use silk detergent
- DON'T: use fabric softener, shampoo, or conventional detergent

Is washing at 30 degrees enough?
We recommend washing your silk essentials at 30 degrees, and no worries, this is enough to clean and kill bacteria. Due to the silver ions which are 99.7% antibacterial, your essentials will stay clean. Don't forget to use our washing bags and Ph-neutral wash detergent. Washing at a higher temperature can damage the silk and silver ion particles.
