Preventing Baby Bald Spots: The Benefits of Silk

Naturally Hypoallergenic & Repels Dust Mites

As well as being hypoallergenic, silk is naturally mould, fungus, and dust mite resistant, helping protect your baby from a multitude of environmental irritants and allergies, making it the ideal choice for allergy and asthma sufferers.

Nasty dust mites thrive in warm environments like bedding, feeding off shed skin cells, but silk contains a rare protein that naturally repels the mites.

With its hypoallergenic properties, and gentle on even the most sensitive of skin, silk is also recommended for babies with eczema due to its numerous antibacterial qualities.

Breathable & Helps Regulate Body Temperature

As well as feeling soft and comfortable against your baby’s skin, the breathable Mulberry silk fabric will keep them warm and cosy in winter and cool and comfortable in summer, naturally regulating their temperature all year round.

Skin Hydrating

Unlike fabrics like cotton, silk doesn’t absorb moisture and natural oils, helping to keep your baby’s skin and hair hydrated.

Monday Silks has a beautiful Baby Silk Collection, which will help your baby have a comfortable, restful sleep, whilst caring for their skin and hair.

Is Silk Only Beneficial for Babies?

Silk is not just for babies. The benefits extend to older children and adults too, for many of the reasons listed above.

Monday Silks provides a gorgeous range of silk pillowcases, silk face masks and silk eye masks, offering comfort and protection for the whole family.
