15th January, London: According to The Sleep Council of the UK, 40% of people are sleep deprived, and a lot has to do with their sleep environment, which includes the quality of their bedding.

A good night’s sleep is very important for every person. The body rests and rejuvenates whilst you sleep so that you can wake up with zest. A good sleep reflects well on the emotional, mental and physical well being of a person- and this is where sleeping in a silk duvet set can help.

Deep restful sleep in what is the most luxurious material out there in the world - pure silk.

The benefits of sleeping in silk from head to toe are numerous. Silk is very kind on your skin and hair, helping them retain the natural moisture, lustre and beauty.

Silk keeps you warm in winters and cool during summers which is a great thing about a material. It has the wonderful feature of regulating the temperature of the body while you sleep. This enables you to have deep and rejuvenating sleep, which helps you wake up fresh the next day.

A silk duvet set made in pure mulberry silk is mite-resistant, antibacterial and hypoallergenic, making it a great choice for those suffering from allergies, eczema and other skin inflammations. When it comes to choosing a silk duvet set, it is important to check the quality of the silk, the momme (weight) of the silk and the durability to check if it can last for long. As per a recent survey by MayfairSilk, sleeping on 22 momme silk is ideal. Momme is to silk what thread count is to cotton. It is also important that the silk duvet set is made from materials that have been tested to be free from harmful chemicals and dyes.

Self-care is becoming increasingly important as people are recognising the importance of everyday pleasures. A double silk duvet set may come across as expensive at first, but when you take into account the daily pleasures and benefits it delivers towards your sleep, it is well worth it. Also, by following simple care instructions (link to: https://mayfairsilk.com/pages/care-instructions?_pos=2&_sid=97904d372&_ss=r) to wash the silk, the silk can last for years and even decades.
