🌟 For Longevity
Hand wash with cold water only using pH neutral liquid detergent, then hang to dry. This is the ultimate method to maximise the life of your silk.
⚡ For Convenience
Machine wash on delicates at 30°C (86°F) using a delicates wash bag with pH neutral liquid detergent.
Why our silk is special: Traditionally, silk is hand wash and dry clean only. Our silk is of the highest quality (6A Grade 19 Momme), making it machine washable – but it's still silk and deserves the best care we can give it.
Care Guidelines
- pH neutral liquid detergent
- Machine wash delicates 30°C (86°F)
- Hand wash 30°C (86°F)
- Dry clean
- Iron on low heat
- Steam or dry
- No trichloroethylene
- Do not bleach
- Do not tumble dry
- Avoid high temperatures
💡 Why pH Neutral Detergent?
Silk is a natural fibre and washing in a solution that's too acidic or alkaline can cause the silk to harden in a single wash. If you can't find a detergent that specifies pH level, simply choose one that's formulated for silk. Never use bleach products.
🌡️ Temperature Matters
Even just slightly above 30°C (86°F) can change silk dramatically. If your machine doesn't specify exact heat settings, use the cold setting or just one level above cold to be safe.
✨ The Secret to Long-Lasting Sheen
The gentler you wash your DREAMSILK, the longer it will keep its beautiful sheen. The shinier it is, the better it will 'slip' – which is one of the key benefits for your hair and skin. A delicates bag is optional, depending on whether your washing machine tends to grab and tear delicate items.
