Why We Created the SILKE Pillowcase
At SILKE London, everything we create begins with one belief: real transformation for your hair and skin starts with care. And at the heart of that care is silk - the fabric that shapes our products, defines our standards, and even inspired our name.
For years, our community has asked us for a SILKE Pillowcase. We didn’t want to rush it. Instead, we set out to create the ultimate version - one that truly delivers visible results for both skin and hair, every single night. That meant using the best quality silk, working with expert manufacturers, and refining every finishing detail until we created a pillowcase superior to anything else on the market - and at the best possible price for our customers.
1. Why Silk Matters
Not all silk is created equal. Most pillowcases use silk between 16–19 momme - thinner, less durable, and prone to fraying. While it may feel smooth at first, this looser weave quickly loses softness and shine. Over time, it creates more friction against your hair and skin, leading to frizz, breakage, and sleep creases.
Our 22 momme silk is stronger, smoother, and designed to last. With a denser weave, it resists nightly friction, retains its luxurious softness and sheen, and feels weighty in quality without being heavy to sleep on. It is naturally hypoallergenic, breathable, and absorbs far less than cotton – meaning your skincare stays where it belongs: on your skin, not your pillow.
2. Designed With Purpose
Every element of the SILKE Pillowcase has been carefully considered to deliver maximum performance and longevity.
- Key benefits - smooths sleep creases, softens the appearance of fine lines, calms irritation, and minimises frizz for healthier-looking hair.
- Highest grade silk – 100% pure mulberry silk, Grade 6A, 22 momme for unrivalled quality and lasting results.
- Thoughtful construction – luxuriously piped edges and a concealed zip closure keep your pillow secure while ensuring durability night after night.
This isn’t just another silk pillowcase. It is crafted to combine luxury with purpose, elevating both your beauty routine and your sleep environment.

3. The Overnight Beauty Treatment
The SILKE Pillowcase is more than a luxury accessory – it’s a nightly treatment that works as you rest. It:
- Smooths sleep creases and helps reduce the appearance of fine lines
- Soothes sensitivity and reduces irritation
- Keeps your skincare on your face, not your pillow
- Minimises friction for shinier, stronger hair
- It’s the simplest, most effortless step you can add to your nightly ritual – one that delivers visible results over time.
Looks like luxury. Works like a treatment.
