LEGIT silk pillowcases!
I went down a bit of a rabbit hole looking for the most affordable real silk pillowcases on Amazon. I had previously ordered a two pack from another vendor claiming to be 19 momme silk but they failed the burn test. Realizing you get what you pay for I upped my budget. I ordered both these and the 19 momme cases from Alaska Bear. The Alaska Bear ones were nice, but very thin. You can feel the difference with these. They have more weight to them. Reminded me of what an evening dress would be made out of. But what really sold me was the burn test. I pulled some loose silk strands from the seam. You can see the strands are hairlike. Burning the strands gave the faint smell of burnt hair. Furthermore the ash fully disintegrated. The two pack I had initially purchased from the other vendor burned to a plastic thing. I never tested the Alaska Bear ones as I preferred the feel of these. So I’m fully confident in the quality of these pillowcases. My hair has almost zero frizz when I get up in the morning. They stay cool to the touch and just feel luxurious. I went all out and opted for the queen size. My pillows are only standard size. But I’d prefer there be a bit of slack to the case to prevent any stress in the zipper, seams when you’re tossing in your sleep. A bit of a hit to the wallet, yes. But if you can afford it, go for it. Life’s short. Treat yourself!

Highly recommend, and high maintenance
I was looking for real silk pillow cases to help my hair, skin, and especially my eyelash extensions. I sleep on my side and with cotton pillowcases I noticed the outer corners of my lashes were shedding faster on the side I favored. Since buying these pillowcases I've had less lashes shed on the outer corners, no breakouts or super oily skin in the mornings, and zero frizz to my curls. Highly recommend!I wash it every other day while I'm in the shower just before I get out with tepid water, hang them to dry on my shower rack and when I get home from work they're dry and ready to go back on my pillowcase. DO NOT USE REGULAR DETERGENT. I found that if I use my rose Love Beauty & Planet body wash it's gentle enough to get the job done and smells amazingggg. Also, don't wring it out, do your best to be gentle as possible when distributing the cleanser, and rinse really well. To add more softness just put a little bit of conditioner (again, I use Love Beauty & Planet) on it then rinse it out good again. Roll it loosley on a towel to excrete some moisture before hang drying is helpful too. None of my pillowcases have any rips or tears after numerous washes so I know I'm doing something right.

Exactly as pictured
Oh yeah, these are the ones. I have never tried silk, but after reading about the health benefits and quality (I have very sensitive skin) I was convinced. I ordered 3 (2 pink and one silver, or "light grey" as its called) and decided to try one out and return the other two if I did not like the feel. I spent one night on these and absolutely loved them. They look incredibly elegant, are very cool to the touch and as soft as you would imagine silk to be. They did not come with any kind of smell and arrived in all of two days. I would absolutely buy from this company again and will be checking to see if they have silk sheets to sell as well!

So soft
This pillow case feels so nice and soft. This is really easy to clean and it did come with washing instructions. I chose to hand wash this pillow case and when it comes to drying, I follow the instructions which states to wrap in a towel. I have thrown this in the dryer but I put it on either low or air dry. This does help get the wrinkles out but once you fold it, the wrinkles do come back. Was afraid that my oily skin would stain this but it doesn't and still hasn't. What I thought was really cool about this pillowcase was that it has a zipper. Was afraid this would get caught up in either the pillow or the pillowcase itself but it really doesn't. Fits my memory foam pillow and not matter how much I toss and turn, the pillowcase stays which is why I love the zipper feature on this.

Real silk needs to be hand washed but it sure is worth it.
Be aware that if you decide on this pillow case you will need to chase it around the bed the first night. It’s that slick and silky. I loved the color and the hidden zipper means your hair won’t get caught in it. I ordered 2 and hand washed the 1 that I wasn’t using. It made a difference, not in the silky feel but in not having to “chase” it. Yes, I’d buy from this seller again.

Soft, Smooth and Cool
These pillow cases are awesome. They are so soft and smooth. They're also great if you sleep hot because if the area you're laying on gets warm it will cool off very quickly if you flip it over or move to another spot. Perfect for me! I originally bought just one pillow case but after I received it and used it for couple of nights, I immediately purchased another for my second pillow. Now I'm considering purchasing two more so I can swap out when I need to wash them.

Buttery soft pillowcase, love it
As soon as I took it out of the box I was super impressed. I never write reviews but this pillow case made me do it. It came quickly, nicely packaged, came with care and washing instructions.The feel: super soft, silky, buttery between your fingers, it feels like a fine silk materialColor: I got the lighter pink and glad I did cuz it looks great. I used flash in my photo but there's a photo I didn't use flash in to see the color, and my eye cover is also pink so I put it there for reference. It's more of a mauvey, cool toned pink.I have yet to sleep on it but I did put my head down on my pillow and it was cool to the touch and soft against my face and hair. I really hope I love it!I also steamed it before putting it on and the wrinkles came out nicely!

Good purchase!
I am really pleased with these pillow cases! I wanted to buy an additional set of navy silk pillow cases but the ones I purchased two years ago on Amazon are no longer available. I took a chance and ordered these and I like them even more than the original ones i purchased. Once you use silk, you will not want to go back to regular cotton pillow cases. You spend about a 1/3 of your life in bed - make it luxurious! The silk is thick, the zipper is unobtrusive and I was able to fit a standard on a queen pillow. I may have to order more...
