The soft and smooth fabric lends these accessories a luxurious sheen

Silk is the strongest natural fibre. It's hypoallergenic, dust mite-resistant, and allows skin to breathe. And it's also said to contain natural cellular albumen that helps speed up the metabolism of skin cells.

Unlike cotton, silk does not draw moisture away from your skin and hair, but encourages a proper moisture balance, while its extremely smooth and soft texture proves to be beneficial for those with sensitive skin conditions such as eczema.
