Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you might want to know before adding the Silk Ritual Cloth to your ritual — what it is, how to use and care for it, and how ordering works.
The Basics
What is the Silk Ritual Cloth?
It is a reusable face cloth woven from mulberry silk rather than cotton terry, made for the moment right after cleansing. You fold it, press it gently against damp skin to dry the face, and then apply your serum and moisturizer. It is a skincare accessory — not a cleanser, exfoliant, or medical treatment.
How do I use it?
Cleanse as usual, then press the folded cloth against your face to lift away water. Press, never rub. Once your skin is dry, apply serum and moisturizer as normal. The whole idea is a softer, lower-friction final step to cleansing. Full detail lives on How to Use a Silk Face Cloth.
How is it different from a cotton face towel?
The difference is the weave. Cotton terry is looped and raised, which drags on the skin; silk charmeuse is flat and smooth, so it presses water away with far less friction. We cover the comparison in full on Silk Face Cloth vs. Cotton Face Towel.
Who is it for?
Anyone who follows a skincare routine and wants a gentler way to dry the face after cleansing. People who are mindful of friction on the skin often prefer pressing with silk to rubbing with a rough towel. It is used by all skin types and by anyone, regardless of gender.
Skin & Materials
Is it good for sensitive or acne-prone skin?
Many people choose silk precisely because it is smooth and low-friction, which means less tugging and dragging than a standard terry towel. A fresh, clean cloth each use is also easy to keep hygienic. That said, the Silk Ritual Cloth is a skincare accessory, not a treatment, and it does not diagnose, treat, or cure any skin condition. If you have a specific skin concern, follow the guidance of your dermatologist.
What is it made of? What does "25 momme Grade 6A mulberry silk" mean?
Each cloth is cut from double-layer 25 momme, Grade 6A mulberry silk charmeuse and finished with French seams. Momme is the weight of the silk (25 is a dense, substantial grade), Grade 6A is the highest filament quality, mulberry is the fibre source, and charmeuse is the smooth weave. We explain each term on What 25 Momme Grade 6A Mulberry Silk Means.
Will it pill or fall apart?
At 25 momme with a double layer and French-seam construction, the cloth is built to hold up to daily use. Silk is far more affected by heat and harsh chemicals than by ordinary use, so with correct washing it stays smooth and intact for a long time. The main thing to avoid is bleach and high heat.
What size is it?
Each cloth measures 18 × 10.5 inches — generous enough to fold and press comfortably against the whole face.
Care
How do I wash it?
Wash in cold water with a gentle detergent made for silk, no bleach, and low or no heat — lay flat or hang to dry. Heat and harsh chemicals are what damage silk, not everyday use. The full method is on How to Wash a Mulberry Silk Face Cloth.
Do you make something to wash it with?
Yes — the Silk & Intimates Wash — No. 01 Lavande ($38) is a pH-balanced wash created for silk and other delicates. It is the companion made to keep your cloth in its best condition.
Colors, Pricing & Sets
What colors are available?
Seven considered colors: White Pearl, Blush, Champagne, Silver, Sea Mint, Navy, and Onyx. Each is a separate cloth, so you can choose the shades you like. Browse them all on the collection page.
How much does it cost, and why?
Each Silk Ritual Cloth is $52. The price reflects genuine 25 momme, Grade 6A mulberry silk charmeuse, a double layer, and French seams — a cloth made to be reused for a long time rather than replaced. It is one considered purchase that becomes a permanent part of your routine.
Do I need more than one? Is there a discount for buying several?
One cloth is enough to begin. Many people keep a few so a fresh one is always ready between washes, or choose different colors. Buy any three or more cloths and an automatic 15% discount is applied at checkout — the easiest way to build your set is the Build a Set tool on the collection page.
Is this the same as a silk pillowcase or hair towel?
No. This is a face cloth made specifically for pressing the face dry after cleansing. It is smaller and made to be folded and pressed, not slept on or wrapped around the hair.
