5 Health Benefits of Silk for Women
How silk helps your skin and hair whilst you sleep
HOW THE PROTEINS IN SILK HELP YOUR SKIN & HAIR AS YOU AGE
1. Makes your morning bedhead a thing of the past
Have you heard of the phrase silky smooth hair? It's common, but I've not heard of cottony smooth hair.
Cotton pillowcases have 75% more friction than silk. This disrupts your hair follicles as you rotate through your sleep cycle, which is why cotton pillowcases make your hair tangle and break.
Sumptuously soft silk, on the other hand, lets your hair slip and slide whilst you rest, which helps keep your hairstyle intact and gives your hair that glamorous, luscious sheen.
2. Soft and moisturised skin
Imitation silks like rayon and 'satin silk' mimic silk's smoothness, but none come close to recreating the health-promoting properties of silk.
Did you know silk is actually made from protein? Yes, silk is genuinely 97% protein, made from fibroin and sericin, and contains 18 naturally occurring amino acids.
This means silk is essentially made from the same building blocks as your skin and hair.
Silk is also highly breathable and easily absorbs and releases perspiration moisture. It doesn't suck the moisture from your face and absorb your expensive night creams, unlike cotton pillowcases.
Imitation silks, such as rayon, undergo intense chemical processing in their production. Silk, on the other hand, is a natural unprocessed fibre which is Oeko-Tex certified free of harmful chemicals for your skin.
This makes irritation-free silk pleasurably wearable by practically everyone and the ideal choice for those with sensitive skin.
3. Silk is naturally hypoallergenic
Did you know that many skin conditions are caused by the droppings of dust mites that lurk on common pillowcases?
This is because dust mite faeces contains 15 proteins that act as allergens to our skin.
The sericin residue in silk protects the pillowcase and repels these harmful dust mites and nasty allergens.
This makes silk very effective in providing relief for skin conditions like dermatitis, eczema, sensitive skin, an allergic rash, shingles, psoriasis, to name a few.
Irritation free silk is wearable by practically everyone, especially those with sensitive skin.
4. Reduced sleep wrinkles from silk
Whilst sleep creases are minor at a young age, as your skin ages the collagen and elastic fibers in it deteriorate, meaning these creases bounce back less and less throughout the day.
Silk's reduced friction leads to less face crumpling when your face is pressed against the pillow. As each nightly 8-hour sleep compounds these improvements really help reduce any signs of sleep wrinkles over time.
Unique to silk's sericin protein coating, this protein effectively binds to skin and hair keratin to create a multi-functional protective anti-wrinkle film that is moisturising, and leaves your skin and hair with a smooth, silky luxuriousness.
5. Helps prevent the symptoms of menopause
Silk has also been credited with relieving one of the most common and uncomfortable symptoms of menopause – hot flushes. Changes in your bodies hormone balances can affect your bodies ability to control temperature, but silk is known to help counteract this.
Being a poor conductor of heat, silk will remain pleasantly cool so you don’t have to keep turning it upside down in the summer heat.
This helps your silk pyjamas, bedding and pillowcases maintain a more comfortable and cooler temperature throughout your sleep which reduces sweating and unwanted hot flushes.
Have You Ever Slept With A Silk Pillowcase?
Is there a woman who hasn’t wished there was a way to eradicate the morning bedhead?
DREAMSILK™ helps busy women avoid the morning bedhead by sleeping with quality, frictionless silk to wake up with luscious frizz-free hair and greet the world with a natural, radiant glow.
The whole idea behind DREAMSILK is less is more. Women shouldn’t have to be slaves to dozens of different makeup products, applying expensive night creams and hair oils — especially in their 40s, 50s, 60s and beyond.
You should be able to simplify your bedtime routine. For half the price of these expensive night creams which last 3 months, you can try a silk pillowcase which we guarantee will last at least 10 years.
Try sleeping with a silk pillowcase instead to allow your hair and skin to look your best.

What Else Are Women Saying About DREAMSILK?
★ ★ ★ ★ ★
“I've been using silk pillowcases for ten tears or more now and always bought the John Lewis brand. However, these are truly a dream compared. I love the zip fastening, and Dreamsilk is cheaper too. So, to sum up, I couldn't be happier.”
- Sabine

"I have nothing but praise and glowing reviews. The silk pillowcases were exactly as advertised, impeccably constructed and very beautiful.
After a year and a half of online shopping this has been, my best experience so far. Thank you DREAMSILK"

All DREAMSILK™ Products are tailor-made for environmentally conscious women.
We care about making our products safe and healthy for you—and our planet.
Whilst rayon brands itself as a natural fibre, the plant matter is heavily processed with toxic chemicals to produce a pulp which is then squeezed through spinnerets to produce a fibre.
Unlike these heavily processed materials, silk is produced in a much more natural, sustainable and environmentally friendly way.
Silk is produced by the silkworm, which produces a fibre with which it builds its cocoon. This natural material has been produced in a sustainable way for over 7,000 years!
We use no toxic dyes and no extra packaging.
