Fabric & Care Guide

Taking care of your sleep mask helps it last longer and keeps it feeling soft and comfortable night after night.

Natural materials like linen and silk don’t need complicated care — just a gentle approach.

How to care for linen and silk

Because these are natural fabrics, they benefit from careful washing and handling.

Harsh detergents or high temperatures can damage the fibres and reduce their softness over time.

  • Hand wash or use a gentle cycle
  • Use mild detergent
  • Avoid high heat
  • Air dry naturally
  • Do not tumble dry

Why gentle care matters

Linen becomes softer over time when cared for properly, while silk maintains its smooth, gentle feel.

Taking a little extra care helps preserve both comfort and quality.
