Handwashing:
  • Fill a basin or sink with lukewarm water.
  • Add a gentle detergent specifically designed for delicate fabrics, such as silk.
  • Submerge the silk eye mask in the soapy water and gently agitate it with your hands for a few minutes.
  • Rinse the eye mask thoroughly with cool water until all the soap is removed.
  • Gently squeeze out excess water, taking care not to wring or twist the fabric.
  • Lay the eye mask flat on a clean, absorbent towel and roll it up to remove any remaining moisture.
  • Unroll the towel and reshape the eye mask if necessary.
  • Leave the eye mask to air dry in a cool, shaded area away from direct sunlight or heat sources.
Machine Washing :
  • Place the eye mask in a mesh laundry bag to protect it from possible snags or tears during the wash cycle.
  • Select a delicate or gentle cycle with cold water and a low spin setting.
  • Add a small amount of gentle detergent formulated for silk or delicate fabrics.
  • Start the washing machine and let it complete the cycle.
  • Remove the eye mask promptly after the cycle finishes.
  • Gently reshape the eye mask if necessary.
  • Leave the eye mask to air dry in a cool, shaded area away from direct sunlight or heat sources.
General Care Tips:
  • Avoid exposure to direct sunlight: Silk is sensitive to sunlight and prolonged exposure can cause the fabric to fade or become discolored. Store your silk eye mask in a drawer or closet when not in use, and avoid leaving it in direct sunlight for extended periods.
  • Avoid contact with rough surfaces: Silk is a delicate fabric that can be easily snagged or damaged by rough surfaces. Be cautious when placing or storing your eye mask to prevent it from coming into contact with sharp objects or rough textures.
  • Ironing: If your silk eye mask becomes wrinkled, use a cool iron and place a thin cloth or press cloth between the iron and the fabric. Gently iron on the lowest heat setting to remove wrinkles. Avoid using high heat or steam as it may damage the silk.
  • Avoid harsh chemicals: Avoid using bleach or any harsh chemicals when cleaning your silk eye mask. These can damage the fabric and affect its color and texture.
By following these washing and care instructions, you can help maintain the beauty and longevity of your silk eye mask.
