Why Use a Silk Sleep Mask For Sleeping? 5 Silk Sleep Mask Benefits - SYLKE The Label

Getting good quality sleep is an essential factor affecting our overall physical and mental wellbeing, however we all know how difficult it can be to achieve a deep and restful night's sleep. If you are someone who struggles to get to sleep but you aren't sure if a silk sleep mask is for you, then keep reading!

Using a sleep mask can be a game-changer for the quality of your sleep, and using a silk sleep mask has even more benefits than a regular sleep mask!

In this blog we will go through the key benefits of using a silk sleep mask for sleep and why it is one of our must-have bedtime essentials to help us fall asleep faster and get better quality sleep, whilst also providing a range of natural skincare benefits.

5 BENEFITS OF SWITCHING TO A SILK SLEEP MASK

1. Better quality sleep

Using a silk sleep mask will help to block out the light so that you can enjoy a deeper and more restful sleep. If you are a light sleeper or very sensitive to light, regular use of a silk sleep mask will help you to achieve a deeper night's sleep each night by reducing your exposure to light throughout the night. This is especially important if your bedroom tends to have light streaming in during different points of the evening, which can lead to disrupted sleep.

Not only is it a more affordable option compared to blackout blinds, but it is also the perfect travel accessory that you can take wherever you go! This is especially useful for helping you to get to sleep on long-haul flights and journeys.

2. Hydrated skin 

Using a silk sleep mask has many benefits for skin as well as your sleep. Organic mulberry silk is significantly less absorbent than other materials such as cotton. This means that silk sleep masks absorb less moisture from your skin whilst you wear it overnight, which in turn helps to keep your skin hydrated.

Not only will it keep your skin naturally hydrated, but if you use any overnight eye creams or face creams, using a silk sleep mask will also help to keep them on your skin rather than absorbed into your pillowcase!

 

3. No creases on your skin

Another benefit of using a silk sleep mask for skin is that silk is anti-crease. Silk creates less friction against your skin compared to other materials like cotton. It is estimated that mulberry silk has up to 30% less friction compared to cotton, which helps to reduce creases forming on your skin overnight (which in turn also helps to prevent wrinkles forming!). Therefore, using a silk sleep mask for sleep will also give you natural overnight skincare!

4. Suitable for all skin types

Mulberry silk is a 100% natural material which is also naturally hypoallergenic, which means that silk can be used for all skin types including sensitive skin.

At SYLKE The Label, we only use organic 100% mulberry silk which has been OEKO-TEK certified. This means that our silk is guaranteed to be free from toxic chemicals and dyes that may be harmful for skin and the environment.

5. Temperature-regulating

Mulberry silk is a natural, breathable fabric and also has heat-regulating properties which means it will help to keep your skin temperature regulated throughout the night. This is especially useful during the warmer summer months to help keep your face cool during the summer nights. 

6. Ultimate comfort

At SYLKE The Label, our pure silk sleep masks are made from the highest grade 100% mulberry silk with a luxury thickness of 22 momme (30% higher than the standard 19 momme silk sold in many retail stores). This means that our silk sleep mask has a luxurious feel and is extremely soft against your skin.

On top of that, our silk sleep masks are lightly padded with a 100% silk filling, which makes it even more comfortable for all night wear.  

As you can see, a mulberry silk sleep mask is a bedtime essential and makes the perfect gift for anyone who struggles to get to sleep at night. Not only does it add a little bit of luxury to your sleep routine, but it also has a wide range of benefits for your skin and quality of sleep.

Sweet Dreams!
