A youthful, glowing complexion
- With over 18 different types of natural amino acids, the tightly woven smooth fibres of silk form a natural barrier to keep moisture close to the skin, helping prevent dehydration of the skin.
- The tightly woven fibres of silk also help protect the skin from UV damage, which accounts for 80 per cent of skin ageing, including wrinkles, and reduces skin cancer risk.
- The natural cellular albumen in silk helps speed up metabolism of skin cells and can help maintain healthy, young-looking skin.
Hypoallergenic
-
The sericin residue is a natural repellent that keeps bugs, bacteria, and mould away, protecting you from skin rashes, eczema and stuffiness — a property that synthetic fibres, wools, and some cottons simply cannot match.
Temperature control and moisture wicking
-
An all-climate fabric, silk is warm and cosy in winter and comfortably cool when temperatures rise. Its natural temperature-regulating properties give silk the paradoxical ability to keep you cool in summer and warm in winter.
-
Highly absorbent, silk can absorb up to 30% of its weight in moisture without feeling damp and dries quickly. It absorbs perspiration while allowing the skin to breathe, keeping you dry and comfortable in any climate, year-round.
