Discover how to wash, dry and care for your silk.
Every silk piece is a little different. Always follow its own care label. This is a general guide, with final Luxo Silk product instructions to follow.
SLOW DOWN. HANDLE GENTLY.
A simple, considered routineWash with a little love.
Keep it cool & gentle
For hand-washable silk, use cool water and a small amount of detergent specifically suitable for silk. Wash colours separately and handle without rubbing or scrubbing.
Rinse with a light touch
Gently move the piece through clean, cool water until detergent is removed. Avoid twisting, stretching or wringing delicate fabric.
Let it dry naturally
Gently press out water with a clean towel. Reshape and air-dry away from direct sunlight and heat, following the product label.
BEYOND THE WASHKeep the little

luxuries lovely.
Choose a silk-friendly detergent
Avoid bleach. Check detergent suitability for silk, including delicate trims and elastic.
Machine wash only if permitted
If the care label allows it, follow its cycle and temperature instructions and use a mesh bag where recommended.
Skip heat and rough handling
Avoid tumble drying unless your label explicitly allows it. Never wring or rub silk to remove water.
Store away from sunlight
Keep clean, dry pieces away from direct sun and rough surfaces. Check the label before ironing; never assume a hot iron is safe.
Thoughtful details.
Gentle habits.
Pillowcases
Avoid rubbing at marks. Check care instructions before treating stains; seek professional advice for stubborn stains or uncertain finishes.
Sleep masks
Filling, lining and elastic may need different care from the silk outer. Follow the whole product’s instructions and let it dry fully before wearing.
Scrunchies
Both 3.5-inch and 1-inch scrunchies need gentle handling. Avoid stretching elastic while wet and follow their care labels before washing.
