... silk pillowcase because I have heard of the many wonderful benefits of silk (less sleep creases/wrinkles
I have always wanted a silk pillowcase because I have heard of the many wonderful benefits of silk (less sleep creases/wrinkles, better for skin, hairstyles etc). After doing my research I decided I would only buy 25 momme silk pillowcase. I bought this one and one from Celestial silk, as I wanted to have a comparison (I also wanted two - for when one's in the wash). The both come in at the same price point. Given that in my research I came across some silk pillowcases up to $80, I thought this was a reasonable price for a high momme count (most of the cheaper ones were 19 momme or less). I pay more for a jar of face cream and a pillowcase lasts longer, so I think it's a very worthwhile investment. The Fishers Finery is slightly heavier, thicker material (we're talking about silk here, so it's a small difference) and I liked the feeling that it is strong and not flimsy. DEFINITELY comfortable to sleep on, I don't think I can go back to cotton pillowcases again. I will travel with these. This Fishers Finery silk pillowcase is not as satiny as the Celestial Silk, so not as "slippery" to sleep on. I don't mind, it's still very soft and the perfect temperature for my face/head. It may soften up more as it gets washed again and again, so I am curious to see which one wears better. I'm very happy with this purchase and am choosing this one as the one I travel with as it seems just a little bit more durable. I would give the Celestial Silk one half a star more though, just because it feels a little more silky. I put them through the handwash cycle on my washing machine and then give them a quick iron (inside out. Makes the silk feel more silky). It's about ten minutes more effort (5 mins for a separate wash, 5 mins to iron) but I personally think it's worth the energy because it feels just SO good to put my head on such a soft silk at night :)
