Why silk as a gift for New Mums?

Silk, known for its unparalleled softness and numerous beauty benefits, makes an ideal gift choice for new mums who want to improve their self-care routine and love a touch of luxury.

For Sleep - As a new mum, it can be incredibly challenging to get good quality sleep. The temperature-regulating properties of silk help keep mums cool in summer and warm in winter, contributing to a more peaceful and undisturbed sleep. Silk’s naturally smooth and luxurious texture also helps to create a more comfortable and restful sleep environment. 

For Skincare - New mothers struggle to find time for themselves, let alone to run through a complicated 10-step skincare routine each morning! Incorporating silk accessories like a silk pillowcase provides effortless skincare each night with minimal effort. Silk is renowned for its smooth texture, which helps reduce friction on the hair and skin, preventing creases and wrinkles forming. Additionally, silk's moisture-retaining qualities keep skin hydrated, promoting a healthy and youthful appearance. These benefits are especially valuable for new mums who may be experiencing changes in their skin and hair due to postpartum hormonal shifts.

For Haircare - Post-birth hair loss is a common issue many new mums face, often due to hormonal changes. Silk pillowcases and silk hair accessories can be a great support during this time. The smooth surface of silk reduces friction and tension on the hair, helping to prevent breakage and split ends. This is an effortless way to encourage healthier, stronger hair growth during the postpartum period.

Our Top 5 Silk Gifts for New Mums

1. Silk Pillowcases: Beauty Sleep each night

Our best-selling silk pillowcase is an all-time favourite gift for new mothers.

Benefits of a silk pillowcase for new mums

  • Anti-ageing: Hailed as an ‘anti-aging pillowcase’, silk pillowcases not only provide a luxurious sleep experience with its smooth texture, but silk pillowcases also by reduce friction on skin to prevent sleep lines and wrinkles, keeping the skin looking youthful.
  • Hydrated skin: Silk's natural properties also mean it absorbs less moisture than materials like cotton, which helps to maintain the skin's moisture balance, promoting a hydrated and radiant complexion. 
  • Thermo-regulating: Silk pillowcases also have natural thermo-regulating properties, keeping you cool in the summer and warm in the winter. This makes a silk pillowcase ideal for year-round use.

2. Silk Eye Mask: Enhance Sleep Quality

We all know sleep is a precious (and rare!) commodity for new mothers, and a silk sleep mask will be a game-changer for their sleep routine.

Benefits of silk eye masks for new mums

  • Better sleep - Eye masks are an essential sleep accessory to help to block out light, creating a dark and serene sleep environment as you sleep, which is essential for getting quality rest and avoiding disturbances.  Silk eye masks are also lightweight and breathable, ensuring maximum comfort throughout the night.
  • Beauty sleep benefits - Using a pure silk eye mask also has a number of additional beauty benefits beyond sleep. The gentle touch of silk on the delicate eye area helps reduce puffiness and dark circles, leaving new mums looking refreshed. Silk’s naturally smooth surface also prevents lines forming around eyes each night as you sleep - it will be their new beauty sleep essential!
