The secret to smoother mornings
Why mulberry silk?
Every night your hair and skin spend hours pressed against your pillowcase. Here is what changes when that surface is silk – shown, not just told.
Under the microscope
Why hair frizzes overnight
As you turn in your sleep, your hair rubs against the pillowcase. Cotton fibres are short, twisted and textured – they catch the hair cuticle and rough it up. Silk is one long, smooth, continuous filament, so hair glides over it instead.
Cotton
Short, twisted fibres with a textured surface
- Hair catches and rubs
- Cuticle roughens → frizz and tangles
Mulberry silk
Long, smooth, continuous filaments
- Hair glides over the surface
- Cuticle stays smooth → less frizz

Skin
What silk does for your skin
How much moisture the fabric draws from your skin
- Skincare stays on your skinSilk absorbs less than cotton, so more of your night cream stays where you put it.
- Fewer sleep creasesSkin glides instead of being pressed and creased into the fabric.
- Gentle on sensitive skinA smooth, natural fibre, OEKO-TEX® tested for harmful substances.
A pillowcase won’t replace your skincare – it is a gentle addition to your evening routine.

Quality explained
What does 22 momme mean?
Momme (mm) measures how dense silk fabric is. More silk per square metre means a fabric that feels more substantial, is less see-through and holds up better to washing.
Grade 6A is the highest grade of raw mulberry silk – long, even and strong fibres for a smooth, lustrous fabric.
Myth vs fact
Silk myths, untangled
Myth“Satin is the same as silk.”
Reveal the fact
Satin is a weave, not a fibre. Most satin pillowcases are polyester, which breathes far less than silk.
Myth“Silk is difficult to care for.”
Reveal the fact
Wash it at 30°C on a delicate cycle in a mesh bag with a mild detergent and dry it flat. That’s it.
Myth“Silk is only for summer.”
Reveal the fact
Silk is a breathable natural fibre – cool on warm nights and cosy in winter.

Aurasilks - pure elegance as soon as I opened the package 🤍
The quality feels incredibly luxurious and I love how elegantly everything is packaged.
The Aurasilks pillowcase and scrunchie are made of really good quality silk! They are super soft to the touch and my hair and skin stay glowing and healthy when I use them. The scrunchy is big enough to look really luxurious in the hair!

This white silk scrunchie is absolutely beautiful and feels incredibly soft and luxurious. It holds my hair comfortably without pulling or leaving creases, and the quality is excellent. The elegant white color goes with everything and adds a lovely touch to any hairstyle. I’ve noticed less frizz and breakage compared to regular hair ties. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a stylish and gentle scrunchie!
The pillowcase in rose blush plus the scrunchie and my daughter was over the moon!
