Silk Pillowcase?

21 replies

WineGetsMeThroughIt · 05/05/2021 22:24

Can anyone recommend a good quality silk pillowcase that stops your face from creasing up by the time the morning rolls around? I wake up with such deep pillowcase creasing ok my face now that they can take up to an hour to fade away 🤦🏼‍♀️

Is it possible to get a good quality double sided one for less than £40?

Watching with interest, hoping a silk pillowcase will help me avoid the crispy hair bird's nest every morning

I found that a silk pillow case didn’t make any difference to me, but a silk eye mask has. I usually wake up with two diagonal lines cutting through my eyebrows, but they have pretty much gone since I started wearing the mask (just a cheap one from Amazon)

I think slip does them

I have satin pillow cases

I bought one from amazon. It's great for my hair, no more bed hair. I sleep on my front /face, no more crease marks on the side of my face!

I have a lovely one from John Lewis, it was £45 though

Silkytots. They do a few different patterns and are quite reasonable at £45. There's a option to sign up to their newsletter which will get you a discount code or freebie.

DH and I have one each, I got a mate one for Xmas, and she in turn got her mum one, so it's safe to say they're pretty good quality!

I have lilysilk pillowcases, they're lovely and reasonably priced (c£29), I have eczema and these are much better for my skin.

I use an eBay store direct from Vietnam. SpiritsofVietnam. Double sided 25 momme silk pillowcase with a zip. Usually cost around £20. Excellent quality.

LongIslandIcedT · 05/05/2021 23:15

I tried Satin but they were too slippery and I kept falling off the pillow.

wingsnthat · 05/05/2021 23:18

This happens? I can honestly say I have never experienced this with any pillowcase

I have the expensive slip silk pillowcases. I can’t say whether they are worth the cost yet but they look good, feel comfortable and wash well so I can’t complain. I think my hair is less tangled in the morning. I don’t think it’s made any difference to my face though but I never experienced creasing to begin with

Jas1985 · 05/05/2021 23:19

I have a silk one from a company called onlycurls. It was £40 but it’s lovely quality, washes well and their customer service is great. It doesn’t have that shiny slippery feeling you get on cheaper satin ones either

seepingweeping · 05/05/2021 23:36

I have a slip one that I gave to my mum. I bought a much cheaper one from Amazon and it's amazing. It doesn't do much for my face but my hair is less static and out of control in the morning

I bought some from John Lewis to help with my hair. They have definitely reduced /eliminated morning face creases too

cardoon · 06/05/2021 00:11

ZIMASILK is my favourite one from amazon £23'ish

Mrstwiddle · 06/05/2021 01:50

John Lewis, I picked up a new one on eBay for £30 and it is definitely worth it. On a cotton pillowcase, face creases the next day can last hours for me!

Mrstwiddle · 06/05/2021 01:51

Haven’t noticed a huge difference to hair though.

Grohlsguitar · 06/05/2021 01:55

I buy satin ones on Amazon and really like them. I'd like silk even more, but it's not cruelty free.

ToManderleyAgain · 06/05/2021 05:05

I had one from John Lewis that I ruined by accidentally putting it through a hot wash and then the tumble drier. It’s now falling apart. If you have form for this type of behaviour then I wouldn’t get a spendy version!

I used one from Morton Mulberry Silk and they are amazing. Haven't tried them from anywhere else but would highly recommend trying one.

Here are the ones I bought:
