LULUSILK Mulberry Silk Pillowcase for Hair and Skin, 100 Pure Silk Pillow Case Cover 16 Momme with Hidden Zipper, Silvergrey, Queen Size, 1 Pack

I really love this pillowcase! I bought a 2nd one last week. I bought both in the light blue color, it is very beautiful. I was a little hesitant to buy this because in the pictures it did not look very silky but trust me it is! The pictures do not do the product justice, the fabric is so silky smooth just as you would expect from 100% silk. The price is very reasonable, even cotton pillowcases are not cheap! It is so much more comfortable and cooling to sleep on compared to cotton. They have washed well in a laundry bag & I hang dry them, they wrinkle some after being washed but smooth out when you put them on your pillow. Be sure to order the right size, they come in 3 different sizes. I was also hesitant to buy because the zipper, I thought the zipper would get in the way and annoy me but I don't even know it is there. I highly recommend these pillowcases! I plan on buying more for other family members. My hair has never looked better, now I want a silk comforter & sheets too!**Update** My 2 pillow cases are still washing/wearing great, they still look and feel like new! Very very pleased with this product!

I was skeptical at first, but I've already noticed improvement in my hair and skin after sleeping on these silk pillowcases for a few weeks, instead of cotton ones. I'm able to wear my hair on top of my head while I sleep without worrying about breakage in the back, which keeps the skin on the sides of my face much clearer. I have fewer flyaways/broken hairs visible when I wear my hair up in general, and my hair just looks smoother, shinier and healthier overall. I have wavy, very thick hair that doesn't have much shine without products, but most products make me break out, so I don't use them. This pillowcase is a nice workaround - my hair looks healthier (and seems to be breaking/falling out less) without the use of some goop or spray. Good for low-maintenance folks like myself!As for the material they're made of:The pillowcases I received are definitely not polyester or any kind of synthetic fabric. I can't say with 100% certainty that they are silk, but they do feel and look it. They passed the "burn test" (where you remove a few threads and carefully burn them): synthetic threads will ball up into a plasticized clump, and threads from natural sources, like silk, cotton, or wool, will shrivel, burn and turn to ash. The threads from these pillowcases turned to ash.The color (taupe) is quite true to the picture shown, although every computer monitor is different. And they feel quite nice to sleep on - almost like nothing.The packaging is far from elegant or gift-able: it is a frosted plastic zip bag with the pillowcases wrapped in cellophane and tightly packed inside. If you want to give this to someone else and have it seem *~*~*~luxurious~*~*~* you might want to repackage it yourself.

These silk pillowcases are satiny smooth but not "slippery" or "slimy" feeling the way artificial silk is. Upon arrival, I inspected for any defects and was impressed with the zipper. I hand washed these in a little dish bin with mild natural soap, and rinsed with a natural coconut conditioner to keep them smooth. Hang to dry and by the next morning they are done! Putting the pillowcases on the pillow when they are *just barely* damp helps prevent any wrinkling. My pillow was the exact measurements of the case, so slipping it into the case was a touch tricky but I can definitely get used to it. I'm more accustomed to the envelope style case, where the pillow just drops in. These require about a minute each to equip the pillow, which is really no time at all. They stay on the pillow much more firmly and I was highly impressed with the feel of the pillows throughout the night. They do not bunch up, wrinkle, slip off the pillow, feel sweaty, or cold. These are thin enough (16 momme) that my gel pillow still cools the skin. I totally recommend these cases, and high suggest people hand wash and dry, it only takes a few minutes and actually saves a ton of water and energy. Walmart sells dish basins that are about 6 gallons for right around $4. I hand wash these pillowcases with my bras and lingerie. Great quality product and I've already recommended to my roommate, coworkers, and friends. Well worth the price!

Just received these 2 pillowcases. The colour is beautiful, soft to the touch. One of them had some shreds, hopefully will not contribute to breaking too quickly. This is my second silk pillowcase pair, the first one was from another brand. There is a remarkable difference of feeling/ sleeping on silk compared to cotton or satin silk. Absolutely worth money spent. I hope they also last long enough: doing laundry using laundry bag, only cold water and gentle cycle.

This is not real silk despite the tags and description. It feels like polyester or satin at best. I knew the price was too good to be true. I purchased a silk pillow case a few months ago that was much more expensive and there is a huge difference between these and the one i purchased. Was really hoping these would be the same but sadly they are really cheap knock offs. Do not recommend.

I have purchased five or six silk pillowcases from various vendors and this is by far the best quality, so soft and smooth. The color was perfect and I received it in two days. Highly recommend!

I just got these pillowcases and have only used them for one night but so far, I'm happy. I hand-washed them in my sink before using, and there wasn't a lot of bleeding from the dye, which was nice. (I ordered them in black.) I got the two pack, as it made them a little cheaper per pillowcase. The silk is fine, not the nicest or smoothest but still nice. I have waist-length hair and usually wake up to a tangled mess, and I can feel my hair snagging on cotton pillowcases. I got sick of waking up and looking at my messy hair, which is why I finally got these silk ones. Why did I wait so long?! This morning I woke up and my hair was fine, no big tangles and it wasn't as ratty looking. If you have long hair, it is absolutely worth the investment. I wish I had bought these years and years ago. Time will tell how my skin responds to this, but I'm happy knowing that these pillowcases don't suck the moisture from my hair and skin the way cotton does.

This pillowcase is not silk. It’s 100% polyester. Based on that, these pillowcases are horribly overpriced. I was hoping to replace my silk pillowcase with a new one and unfortunately, the difference between the two was very noticeable. The hand-feel of silk should be smooth and organic, not slightly scratchy, like this one. The colour was as advertised (natural white) and it LOOKS nice, it’s just not silk. Be forewarned.

It's NOT silk! I've bought silk pillow covers from Sephora and they DO NOT feel like this. Real silk is much smoother and feels much lighter. This still feels good like polyester, but giving it one star because it's not silk!

I bought this pillowcase, and waited for it to arrive (which took over a month). When it did arrive, and I checked the washing instructions it said "imitation silk pillowcase" Material: 100% polyester. I am extremely disappointment, I paid for a silk pillowcase, and got polyester! They advertised that it is crafted by 16 Momme pure mulberry silk, and that it is 100% silk - NOT TRUE ... its 100% polyester! See photograph of washing instructions tag on the inside of pillow case.

I loved these pillow cases, they arrived in a very nice package, beautiful colour but very poor craftsmanship, the stitches ripped after the first use, both pillows are good for nothing now. I expected these to last for some time, very disappointed.

Always great products from LuLuSilk, however colour faded dramatically with 2 washes. Purchased in black, but now more of a slate colour.EDITCompany reached out due to fading and sent replacement sham. What's more, did not request anything in return. No review edit, nothing. Cheers to LuLuSilk
