Frequently Asked Questions
POSHEY™
WHAT IS POSHEY™?
POSHEY™ silk is engineered for results—not just luxury.
Since 2019, we’ve developed our fabric to meet uncompromising standards in shine, softness, durability, and skin benefits. Each pillowcase is made from the highest grade (6A) long-fiber mulberry silk, woven at a dense 22 momme weight, and finished with non-toxic dyes.
Our silk has been independently lab-tested and shown to significantly reduce friction and absorb less face cream—helping preserve your skin barrier and hair moisture while you sleep.*
*Compared to standard cotton pillowcases (220–360 thread count).
BENEFITS
How does a silk pillowcase help improve skin and reduce product absorption?
Traditional cotton pillowcases are highly absorbent—they soak up your face cream, serum, and natural skin moisture while you sleep. That not only wastes your products but can leave your skin dehydrated by morning.
POSHEY™ silk pillowcases have been scientifically tested and shown to absorb significantly less face cream than standard cotton, helping lock in moisture and support your nighttime skincare routine.
They also create up to 43% less friction, reducing skin creasing, tugging, and pressure on your face—especially important if you're looking to prevent fine lines and maintain smooth, healthy-looking skin over time.*

Why is a POSHEY™ silk pillowcase better for your skin than cotton or satin?
Cotton pillowcases are highly absorbent—they soak up moisture from your face and hair while you sleep, including your expensive skincare and hair treatments. POSHEY™ silk pillowcases have been independently lab-tested and shown to absorb significantly less face cream than standard cotton pillowcases (220–360 thread count), helping your products stay where they belong: on your skin, not your pillow.
POSHEY™ silk also creates up to 43% less friction, reducing the pulling and stretching that leads to sleep lines, irritation, and premature aging. Unlike synthetic satin, which is made from petroleum-based fibers, POSHEY™ uses only 100% pure mulberry silk that’s breathable, hypoallergenic, and gentle on even the most sensitive skin.
Choosing a real silk pillowcase like POSHEY™ is one of the easiest upgrades you can make for your skin, hair, and overall sleep quality.
Can a silk pillowcase help reduce sleep creases and wrinkles?
Yes — and here’s why it matters.
As we age, our skin loses elasticity, making it more prone to sleep creases caused by pressure and friction against the pillow. Over time, those temporary lines can become more pronounced and harder to smooth out.
POSHEY™ silk pillowcases have been lab-tested and shown to reduce friction by up to 43% compared to standard cotton pillowcases.* That means your skin can glide gently across the surface—less pulling, less pressure, and less chance of waking up with deep facial creases.
Sleeping on real silk is a dermatologist-recommended tip for minimizing mechanical aging and protecting delicate facial skin while you rest.

Is a silk pillowcase better for your hair?
Absolutely — especially if you want to wake up with smoother, tangle-free hair.
Unlike cotton, which can pull, snag, and rough up your strands overnight, POSHEY™ silk pillowcases are naturally smooth and friction-reducing. Independent lab testing has shown they can reduce friction by up to 43% on average, helping to minimize hair breakage, tangles, and frizz while you sleep.*
Whether you’ve just had a blowout or you’re trying to protect your curls, sleeping on silk is one of the easiest ways to extend your style, reduce frizz, and wake up with healthier-looking hair.

SILK VS SATIN
Why Choose a POSHEY™ Silk Pillowcase Over Cotton or Satin?
Cotton tugs. Satin clings. POSHEY™ glides.
Traditional pillowcases can pull on your hair and skin as you sleep—causing breakage, frizz, sleep lines, and long-term skin stretching.
POSHEY™ silk is naturally smooth and frictionless, allowing your hair and skin to glide gently across the surface without tugging or absorbing your skincare.
Unlike synthetic satin, which is made from petroleum-based fibers, we use only 100% pure mulberry silk—dense, breathable, and dermatologically safer for sensitive skin.
What’s the difference between a satin pillowcase and a silk pillowcase?
While they may look similar at first glance, satin and silk pillowcases are completely different in quality, feel, and benefits.
Satin is not a fabric—it’s a weave or finish. Most “satin pillowcases” on the market are made from synthetic, petroleum-based fibers like polyester or nylon. These materials are often shiny and slippery to the touch, but they’re less breathable, less durable, and prone to trapping heat and sweat while you sleep.
Silk, on the other hand, is a natural protein fiber, spun by silkworms and prized for its softness, breathability, and skin-friendly benefits. POSHEY™ pillowcases are made with 100% pure mulberry silk, woven in a luxe 22-momme weight with a charmeuse finish—giving you the smoothness of satin, but with the breathability and elegance of real silk.
If you want the real beauty benefits—less frizz, fewer sleep lines, and reduced product absorption—silk outperforms synthetic satin in every way.
Look for that signature natural luster—not the overly shiny, plastic-like look of fake satin.
WHY POSHEY™?
WHY POSHEY™? AREN’T ALL SILK PILLOWCASES THE SAME?
Not even close.
While many brands claim to offer “100% silk,” the reality is that not all silk pillowcases meet the same standards for quality, purity, and safety. Some use lower-grade silk, exaggerate momme weight, or dye their fabric with chemicals that can irritate skin.
At POSHEY™, we do things differently. Since 2019, we've worked directly with our silk suppliers to ensure our products are made from the highest grade (6A) long-fiber mulberry silk, woven at a dense 22 momme weight for lasting durability and softness.
Our silk is finished with non-toxic dyes and produced under ethical working conditions—no shortcuts, no fillers, and no fake shine.
If you're looking for a silk pillowcase that delivers real skin and hair benefits while holding up beautifully over time, POSHEY™ sets the standard.
Beware of imitations with inflated claims and synthetic blends. Real silk performs—and Poshey proves it.
Who is behind POSHEY™ and what makes the brand different?
POSHEY™ was founded in 2019 as a family-owned and operated business built on one core belief: you should never have to choose between luxury and real results.
What started as a mission to create high-performance, skin- and hair-friendly silk pillowcases quickly evolved into a trusted sleep and self-care brand—loved for our commitment to quality, honest materials, and exceptional customer service.
We work directly with our silk partners to ensure ethical sourcing, non-toxic dyes, and industry-leading craftsmanship, and we’ve proudly served thousands of customers worldwide who care about what they sleep on.
From our family to yours—thank you for choosing POSHEY™.

Anyone with a head and a pillow. Seriously.
From kids and busy moms to skincare enthusiasts, grandparents, and even A-list celebrities—POSHEY™ silk pillowcases are loved by people of all ages and lifestyles who care about waking up with smoother skin, healthier hair, and a better night’s sleep.
Whether you're upgrading your beauty routine or simply want to sleep cooler and more comfortably, POSHEY™ makes luxury silk a daily essential—not just a luxury.
Join the growing community that’s made the switch since we launched in 2019—and never looked back.
Is all silk created equal? Why is POSHEY™ silk different?
Not all silk is created equal—and not all suppliers follow the same standards.
At POSHEY™, we partner exclusively with one of the world’s most experienced and reputable silk manufacturers, known for their ethical practices and exceptional fabric quality. We work closely with them to ensure every pillowcase meets strict international standards for purity, durability, and safety.
Cheaper silk pillowcases found online or in stores may use low-grade fibers, inflated momme weights, or harsh chemical dyes—and many offer little transparency around how their silk is sourced.
As with most things in life, you get what you pay for. When you choose POSHEY™, you're investing in certified quality, ethical sourcing, and true performance.
Premium silk isn’t just softer—it’s cleaner, safer, and made to last
What does ‘momme’ mean, and why does it matter when buying a silk pillowcase?
Momme (pronounced “mom-ee”) is the official unit used to measure the weight and density of silk. The higher the momme count, the thicker, more durable, and more luxurious the fabric.
POSHEY™ pillowcases are made with 22 momme silk, considered the gold standard for balancing softness, strength, and breathability.
But here's the truth: not all momme claims are honest. Some lower-quality suppliers measure silk weight before finishing the fabric, leading to inflated or misleading momme counts. At POSHEY™, we guarantee that our 22 momme rating reflects the final, finished fabric—so you get exactly what you pay for.
The result? Silk that drapes beautifully, lasts longer, and feels noticeably better from night one.
What sizes do POSHEY™ silk pillowcases come in?
POSHEY™ silk pillowcases are available in two carefully selected sizes to fit most pillow types around the world:
- 20” x 30” (51 cm x 76 cm)
- 20” x 36” (51 cm x 91 cm)
These dimensions cover the most common pillow sizes across North America, Europe, and Australia. Each pillowcase features an envelope-style closure for a secure, sleek fit.
Looking for a different size? We love hearing from our customers. POSHEY™ was built on direct feedback, and we're always exploring ways to expand our range to better serve you.

HOW DO I CARE FOR MY POSHEY™ SILK PILLOWCASE?
Silk is a delicate, natural fiber—and the way you care for it will directly affect how long it stays soft, shiny, and effective.
Yes, POSHEY™ silk pillowcases are machine washable, but they require proper care to preserve their beauty and benefits.
🧼 Washing Instructions:
Always use a pH-neutral detergent specifically labeled for silk or delicates. Harsh or overly acidic/alkaline cleaners can damage silk in a single wash.
Wash in cold water (or max 30°C / 85°F). Heat can cause silk to shrink, stiffen, or lose its sheen.
Use a delicates bag if your machine has an aggressive drum.
Hand washing is best if you want to maximize longevity and keep the silk’s luxurious glide.
🚫 Avoid:
Bleach, brighteners, or enzyme-based detergents
Hot water or aggressive spin cycles
Tumble drying — always air dry
The gentler your care routine, the longer your POSHEY™ silk pillowcase will stay glossy, soft, and skin-safe.
Think of it as beauty sleep insurance—treat it well, and it’ll treat you even better.
