Why is mulberry silk so prized? It all starts with how it's made

“Holy s***, it’s so amazing!” 

This is something we often hear from our customers. Even though they’ve heard all the buzz about mulberry silk, they’re still absolutely enthralled by the difference it makes to their skin, their hair, and the comfort and quality of their sleep.

But just what it is that makes mulberry silk such a self-care superstar?

Aside from the fact that it’s the crème de la crème of materials and the absolute best silk that money can buy, it all starts with how it’s made.

Before we dive into the specifics of how mulberry silk is spun from busy (and well-fed) silkworms, let’s take a look at what sets it apart from ordinary silk.

How is mulberry silk different from regular silk?

Since silk is already considered such a gorgeous, indulgent material, it begs the question: what makes mulberry silk different from — and better than — regular silk?

Like so many high-quality items, the difference is in the details. Mulberry silk strands are uniformly smooth and unbroken, which means that when they’re woven together to create a textile, the finished product is a luxe, smooth material that feels like pure opulence against the skin. There’s nothing else quite like it.

Here’s just a quick list of mulberry silk’s virtues:

• It wicks away moisture for a fresh, clean feeling.
• It has anti-microbial properties that fight dirt, mould, and mildew.
• It reduces friction and static, so it’s gentle on your hair and skin.
• It provides a cooling effect that allows for a deep, comfortable sleep.
• It is non-toxic and hypoallergenic.

This beautiful fabric is used to create luxurious products that provide a range of health and wellness benefits, from improved sleep to clearer skin.
