 silky soft and great price Jun 09, 2009
By L. Welch
"Solta"
This is a great pillowcase! You only get one per pack but the price can't be beat. This is a soft, satin like finished silk. It has an envelope pocket closure so your pillow will be covered on all sides and won't have any ends flopping around. It seems a good fit for a standard pillow. Washing it with woolite has helped the silk hold up. In the past some silk pillowcases that I have had have been eaten up by traditional cleaners. For this reason, make sure the soap really is silk friendly. Be warned, because of the silk friendly cleaner requirement it can be hard to get protein stains such as blood spots off of the fabric unless you do it immediately. If you need to spot clean, try some salt. That seems to be a safe option for a stain.

Silk pillowcase for reduced wrinkles/acne Aug 28, 2009
By Sandshells27
I bought this pillowcase after attending an organic skincare products class. It was suggested, at the class, to purchase a 100%silk pillowcase for people who wanted to reduce wrinkles, acne, and allergies (from laundry detergents). I bought two so that I could have a clean one on hand at all times. I had searched around for a high quality silk at a decent price and this one was by far the most affordable and serves the purpose.

Softest pillow cases ever! Nov 04, 2009
By D. Read
"fish lady"
These are just like they sound...silk pillowcases. Soft and, well, silky!
I've used them for years and then they became really hard to find for some reason. Just since I bought these from Amazon the scarring on the left side of my face has become less noticeable again. They feel so good too.
If you are hot, just turn your pillow over and it's nice and cool. If you have really sensitive skin, these will cut down on the amount of moisture that is stripped from your skin by cotton or fleece cases.
These are not like regular cases either. They are like slipcovers for throw pillows rather than slip on like regular cases! No more pillows sliding out the case in the middle of the night or, worse, your hand getting caught inside and giving you nightmares. (a personal experience..lol)
I am so glad that Amazon had these! I ordered 2!

Satin? SCHMATIN! Get the real thing - SILK Baby Jun 18, 2010
By L. Sherman-young
"Ms. PrimandProper"
I was not a believer when I first compared this pillowcase to its satin contemporaries: How can it be real silk, at such a great price AND be machine washable? I was exceedingly skeptical. But, the bargain hunter in me said "Why settle for the imitation when you can get the real thing at nearly the same price?". I purchased, and happily, I was not disappointed.
My reasons for wanting a new pillowcase were twofold:
First, I have always had dry, sensitive skin, and had been instructed by my dermatologist to keep my skin moisturized. Plain old cotton just wasn't cutting it in that regard.
Secondly, I had recently begun wearing my hair in its naturally kinky-curly state, and began looking for ways to optimize hair retention. As curly hair is naturally the driest hair texture, I knew I couldn't stick with cotton if I wanted to protect my tresses...PLUS my old pillowcases totally frizzed up my curls, EEEK!
My search for a satin pillowcase led me to this Holy Grail of moisture retention! Some of the main plusses: it's a natural material; it doesn't have a pesky zipper, but slips over the pillow comfortably and holds confidently, and it doesn't get hot either. I live in a humid climate, and I was worried that it might get unbearably warm, but it only got as warm as any other pillowcase I've slept on, and, if I wake up at night, I can just flip it, and its nice and cool. I've washed it, and so far, I haven't noticed any change in the fabric.
After a hard day, the silky smoothness of this pillowcase beckons me to lie down and be soothed, and when I awaken, I don't have that unsightly crushed pillowface that we all dread!
At this price, do yourself a favor and get two!

 Comfortable but thin Mar 24, 2010
By sunshine
"sunshine"
The product description doesn't list its momme weight, so I had no idea how thick the silk would be before I received it. The picture shows a silver tone but it is truly pearl white with a little yellow tone, which I don't mind.
It is comfortable and good for your skin, but it is thinner than I would like. You can easily see the patterns on your pillow through it. But for the price, I cannot complain much.
So if you want to try a silk pillowcase for the first time for yourself, it is a good value for the price. But you want to impress someone else, you'd better look elsewhere.
I'm thinking of buying these 21 mm cases as an upgrade in the future:
