Frequently Asked Questions

Is natural silk really better for the skin than cotton?

Yes, absolutely. Silk creates much less friction with the skin, thus reducing irritation, wrinkles, and acne. Silk contains natural proteins that soothe and hydrate the skin, while cotton can absorb your skin's natural moisture. Dermatologists recommend silk for sensitive, reactive, or problem-prone skin.

How do I wash and care for my silk pajama?

Wash your pajama in cold or lukewarm water with a gentle detergent specifically for silk. Avoid hot water and harsh fabric softeners that damage the fibers. Wash by hand or on a delicate machine cycle. Always dry flat or hanging, never in a tumble dryer. Proper care extends the life of your pajama by several years.

What is a fair price for a good natural silk pajama?

A genuine 100% premium quality silk pajama should cost between 120 and 250 euros. Lower prices may indicate lower quality or fabric blends. Excessive prices do not necessarily guarantee better quality. StudioSoie offers pajamas at fair prices, reflecting the true quality of the product and ethical production practices.

Does silk slip a lot during the night?

A slight slippery feeling is normal and helps reduce friction on your skin. However, well-fitting silk pajamas do not slip excessively. Make sure to choose the right size according to the manufacturer's size guide. The sensation of slight slipping is actually a benefit that protects your skin and hair.

Can I wear silk pajamas all year round?

Yes, that's one of the major advantages of silk. It naturally regulates body temperature, keeping you warm in winter and cool in summer. This exceptional thermoregulation means you can comfortably wear your silk pajamas all year round without overheating or excessive cooling.

Is silk eco-friendly and sustainable?

Yes, natural silk is a biodegradable and renewable material. It comes from the silkworm, which reproduces naturally. Ethical production practices ensure that the environmental impact remains minimal. Choosing a silk pajama is therefore also a responsible choice for the planet. StudioSoie is committed to sustainable and transparent production practices.

Are silk pajamas suitable for women with very sensitive skin?

Are there different qualities of silk to consider?
