Silk isn’t just about feeling fancy — it’s got a long list of benefits. Here’s why everyone (myself included) is making the switch:

1. Hair Care: Silk’s smooth texture causes less friction, which means fewer tangles and less frizz. If you’re prone to bad hair days, this can make a world of difference.

2. Skin-Friendly: Silk is gentle on your skin, helping to minimise irritation and reduce the chance of waking up with those pesky sleep creases.

3. Temperature Regulation: Silk helps regulate body temperature, keeping you cool in the summer and warm in the winter.

4. Moisture Retention: Unlike cotton, silk doesn’t absorb as much moisture from your skin or hair, helping you retain hydration overnight to make the most of that 12-step skincare routine.

I always felt a silk pillowcase was a bit of a luxe treat, but after seeing the rave reviews I thought it was time to put it to the test. I’ve got wavy hair that’s regularly on the frizzy side, and I’m a bit lazy when it comes to styling. Anything that promised less frizz with zero effort immediately caught my attention. So, I bit the bullet and treated myself to a Fleur Silk Pillowcase in the new (and totally cute) Marshmallow hue.

First Night: I went to bed as usual, half expecting to wake up with the same frizzy hair that I usually deal with. But to my surprise, the morning after, my hair was smoother than usual. Not totally frizz-free, but definitely more manageable. I also noticed that my pillowcase felt incredibly cool throughout the night — no sweaty wake-ups here!

After One Week: A week into using the Fleur Silk Pillowcase, I noticed even more changes. My hair seemed to be maintaining its waves better, without that dreaded morning puffiness. And when it came to my skin, the pillowcase really felt soft against it — no tugging, no irritation. I started to get what all the hype was about.
