Our Story

Silk-Pillowcase Australia was born from a simple discovery that changed everything we knew about quality sleep and beauty care. In 2019, after years of struggling with frizzy morning hair and persistent sleep creases, our founder Sarah discovered the remarkable difference a genuine mulberry silk pillowcase could make. Within weeks, the transformation was undeniable—softer hair, smoother skin, and the kind of restful sleep that had seemed impossible before.

What started as personal curiosity quickly became an obsession with understanding everything about silk bedding. We dove deep into the world of momme weights, learning why 22 momme silk offers the ideal balance between durability and luxury, and how 25 momme provides that extra level of opulence for those seeking the ultimate sleep experience. We studied the differences between Grade 6A long-fibre mulberry silk and lower-grade alternatives, understanding why silkworm diet and weaving techniques matter so much to the final product.

As we shared our discoveries with friends and family across Australia, we realised there was a significant knowledge gap. Many Australians were either unaware of silk pillowcase benefits or confused by misleading marketing claims about "silk-like" synthetic alternatives. We saw people paying premium prices for low-momme silk that would pill within months, or worse, purchasing satin pillowcases mistakenly believing they were genuine silk.

Our Mission

Today, Silk-Pillowcase Australia exists to bridge that knowledge gap. We're not just another affiliate site pushing products—we're educators first, helping you understand the difference between charmeuse weave and habotai, explaining why hidden zipper closures matter for hair health, and teaching proper silk care techniques that extend the life of your investment.

Our team personally tests every pillowcase we recommend, evaluating factors that matter most: thread count accuracy, colour fastness after washing, zipper quality, and how the silk feels against skin after multiple wash cycles. We understand Australian pillow sizes differ from US standards, and we specifically seek out products that fit our 48x74cm standard pillows without awkward bunching.

We believe everyone deserves access to honest, expert guidance when investing in their sleep quality. Whether you're a first-time silk buyer on a budget or looking to upgrade to ultra-premium 25 momme silk, our comprehensive guides and unbiased comparisons help you make informed decisions. We take pride in recommending products across all price points, because we know a well-chosen 19 momme pillowcase can still deliver remarkable benefits for those just starting their silk journey.
