We have noticed that people are not well informed about what Momme is and how it affects the quality of silk fabrics, and why silk products have such different costs. We want our customers not to overpay but to buy a truly quality silk products. What is Momme? Momme (mm) is the unit of measurement traditionally used to measure the quality of silk fabrics. In simplest terms, momme measures the density of silk. A silk thread density of 25 momme is significantly higher than the 16 momme or 19 momme in silk fabric. 1 momme = 4,340 grams per square metre;16 momme = 69 grams per square metre;19 momme = 82 grams per square metre;22 momme = 95 grams per square metre;25 momme = 108 grams per square metre. The higher the momme value, the denser, stiffer and higher quality the fabric will be, hence the higher the cost.25 Momme silk products contain approximately 32% more silk than silk products containing 19 Momme. What is the silk thickness of our products? We use 25 Momme silk for our silk nightwear and all our silk accessories, but our silk pillowcases come in two qualities - both 25 MM and 22 MM. We have the option to buy both 22 Momme and 25 Momme silk pillowcases to give a wider choice for customers who are not primarily concerned with silk thickness, but rather with colour variety or their budget. If we talk about silk bed linen then we offer it in an even higher “Lux” quality - 28 Momme, woven in jacquard and satin techniques, making this one of the world's premium silk bed linens. Why do we recommend 25 Momme silk? Higher Momme makes the fabric less sheer, it will last considerably longer, is noticeably nicer to the touch and has a deeper, more vibrant colour. 25 Momme silk fabric is heavier, thicker and more durable, ideal for nightwear and bed linen. I want to buy silk bed linen, what should I look out for? If you want to buy silk bed linen, it is also very important to pay attention to the Momme, we recommend choosing 25 Momme to 30 Momme silk for your bed linen because, as mentioned above, it will be more durable, softer as well as heavier, so it will last longer. Many people may think that care is more complicated, but it is not, care is just as easy and can be done at home. Our advice to customers Our advice to customers is to always pay attention to how much 'momme' silk you are buying and in particular beware of merchants who do not indicate the 'momme' value of their products, as there is almost always only 1 reason for this - it is very low. This is the most important thing when buying silk products, so that you do not feel disappointed when you receive and use the product, and so that your impression of silk products is not spoiled. We have often heard from customers that buying silk pillowcases or silk nightwear elsewhere and not paying attention to the quality is a big disappointment because the silk pillowcases or nightwear wash out quickly and lose their “softness”! Although silk fabric is expensive compared to other fabrics, we believe that quality is the most important thing and we are happy to be able to share this with you, so we are confident that SilkWide silk products will not disappoint you.

At SilkWide, we are passionate about the incredible benefits that silk can bring to your beauty routine. Silk is not just a luxurious fabric; it’s a natural fiber that has been cherished for centuries for its unique properties. From a medical standpoint, silk is hypoallergenic, breathable, and gentle on the skin, making it an excellent choice for those with sensitive skin or allergies. Let’s explore how our silk products, including pillowcases, scrunchies, eye masks, and bonnets, can enhance your daily regimen and contribute to healthier skin and hair. 1. Silk Pillowcases for Glowing Skin SilkWide’s silk pillowcases are a game-changer for anyone looking to improve their skin health. Here’s why they are so beneficial: Moisture Retention: Silk’s non-absorbent nature helps retain your skin’s natural moisture and keeps your skincare products on your face, rather than being absorbed by the pillowcase. This is crucial for maintaining skin hydration and elasticity. Gentle on Skin: The smooth texture of silk reduces friction, which can help minimize irritation and inflammation, especially for those with sensitive skin or conditions like eczema. Hypoallergenic Properties: Silk is naturally resistant to dust mites, mold, and other allergens, providing a cleaner sleep environment that can reduce allergic reactions and improve overall skin health.

Silk pillowcases are becoming increasingly popular because of their superior properties - not only do they offer a feeling of comfort like no other material, but they also have real and practical benefits for the skin and hair. However, in order to make a successful investment and meet your expectations, it is important to know a few important details before making a purchase of your silk pillowcase. Type and quality of silk The quality of a silk is determined by its fibres and the method of production. The most popular and high-quality silk for pillowcases is Mulberry silk, known for its softness, durability and smooth texture. It is very important that the silk worms and mulberry trees grow and live in natural conditions - without chemicals to speed up the process - because only then does the silk fibre itself retain all its natural functions.The next important detail is the type of silk weaving, the most popular being satin or charmeuse.Although they look very similar, the charmeuse weave gives a more natural sheen as well as maximum softness to the touch, which is why all our silk pillowcases are woven in charmeuse.And most importantly, pay attention to the Momme value of silk - a measure of its density and quality. We recommend silk pillowcases with a Momme value of 22 Momme as a minimum, and 25 Momme for true comfort and superior durability. At our e-store SilkWide we offer both silk qualities for you to choose your desired one! Natural properties for skin and hair Silk pillowcases offer several benefits:• Less friction: helps reduce breakage and knots.• Moisture-retaining properties: silk does not draw moisture away from the skin and hair, helping to prevent dry skin and dry hair.• Anti-allergenic properties: natural silk is hypoallergenic, suitable for people with sensitive skin. Care of silk Silk is a very delicate material, but easy to care for at home:• Silk pillowcases can be safely washed in the washing machine, the main thing is to do it in the "Silk" or "Delicate" mode and add the appropriate detergent for silk.• It is important to avoid tumble drying - silk must be dried naturally, otherwise it will permanently damage its structure, making it rough.• After drying, the silk must be ironed to restore its shine and softness - this can be done either with a conventional iron or with steam, the key is to set the temperature low so as not to damage it.   A silk pillowcase is not only a luxurious and elegant accessory for the night, but also a practical solution for healthier skin and hair. We can only recommend that you try a silk pillowcase on your own skin to really see for yourself.Choose your silk pillowcase on our e-store from 10 available colors and 3 different sizes!
