Silk is a beautiful natural fibre, and with the right care, your BlissSilk pieces can stay lovely for a long time.
The best way to wash silk is by hand. Use cool water and a gentle silk safe detergent. Avoid bleach, harsh chemicals, fabric softeners, and strong stain removers, as these can damage the fibres or affect the finish.
After washing, do not wring or twist your silk. Instead, gently press out excess water with a clean towel. Then lay flat or hang in the shade to air dry. Direct sunlight and high heat can affect the colour and texture of silk, so it is best to avoid tumble drying.
If your silk needs ironing, use the lowest heat setting while the fabric is slightly damp, or place a cloth between the iron and the silk. A garment steamer can also be used gently.
If you use oils, hair masks, leave-in treatments, or skincare products, allow them to absorb before wearing or resting on silk. This helps reduce marks and keeps your pieces fresher between washes.
Silk care does not need to be difficult. A little gentleness goes a long way.
