Nice, good price
The Celestial case is nice. Great presentation, though an excess of plastic. I bought this pillowcase and another, more expensive one from Sephora. The pillowcases rated the same-- 5 stars for smoothness, sheen, comfort, etc., until I washed them. Both were machine washed and line dried. Both wrinkled about the same. Without ironing the Sephora case continues to feel silky. The Celestial case does not. It also lost some shine and feels rough against my skin. I need to iron the Celestial case to see if the sheen and smoothness return. On the other hand, I prefer the zipper case that Celestial offers.Likely, the satin weave of the Sephora case has a longer float than that of the Celestial. Thus, it feels smooth and silky without ironing. There is a considerable price differential between the two pillowcases, also something to consider. For what it's worth, my cat likes both! My husband does too.

No longer silky after first wash following manufacturer's instructions
I wish I listened to the other reviewer's advice that this pillow case is terrible after the first wash. I purposely ordered one pillow case instead of two, so I would not waste double the money if my pillow case came out bad after the first wash. I followed the manufacturer's instructions and used a mild detergent, gentle cycle, cold water, and line dry. I even have a front loading washer so there is no agitator; additionally, I put this in a delicate's bag and it still came out not silky like it was when I first got it. There is the faintest silky feeling to the pillowcase. This is not a cheap pillow case and I'm extremely disappointed my money was wasted. After researching other silk pillowcases, this one had some of the highest ratings and I liked that it was zippered and 25 Momme and the natural color. I'm curious if I steam cleaned this pillow case if it would remain as silky as it was when I originally received the product. The pillow case was packaged in a nice box with a hand written note, but that doesn't mean anything if the product is ruined after one wash and following the manufacturer's instructions.

Disappointed and angry
Hand washed today in cold water and the color bled. Silk does not bleed. I so wish I could return but sadly now that I have washed it that is impossible. For the price I paid for this pillowcase it disappoints me.

It’s real, you just need to take care of it the right way
I understand a lot of people don’t think this is real silk because the texture changes after the first wash. However, there is a proper way to take care of it that restores its initial super soft and silky texture.1) Wash it inside out and zip it part way so it can’t flip in the wash. The silky side should only brush against itself in the wash. This is on top of following the manufacturer’s directions of cold water delicate cycle and delicate detergent.2) Hang to dry. I don’t care if you dryer has an air dry setting. Just hang it. It’ll be dry in like 2 hours on a cold day with no sunlight and in half an hour on a warm day with plenty of sun.3) Iron it inside out. This is the most important step, this is was makes it soft again. Use the silk or low setting on your iron. Don’t steam it, the heat is too high and will cause damage over time.The key with maintenance is to be gentle. If you throw it in with your regular wash, use the wrong detergent, and put it in the dryer it’ll have holes in it within a year.I’ve have mine for three years and it’s made a noticeable difference in my skin and hair. My skin is dry and sensitive and with this pillowcase I don’t wake up with dry patches around my chin and mouth anymore. My hair is less frizzy and greasy too and doesn’t break as easily as before. This is definitely worth the money but you do need to take the time to properly take care of it once a week.

This pillowcase is like botox for your face and a hair straightener for your hair :)
Once you sleep on a silk pillowcase, you wont go back to any other material:) I am that person who sleeps with face squashed into the pillow ,so i wake up with million lines on my face and when you over 35 yrs old those lines stays on your face for half a day ! I can't say i wake up without Any lines on my face with this pillowcase ,but its minimal sometimes no lines at all and only ,because i sleep with my face squashed into the pillow ! I also have a very thick and freezy hair ,so i go to bed with a crazy unruly hair and wake up with silky smooth hair ,it looks like someone straightened my hair while i was asleep! Overall i love this pillowcase and i cant recommend enough for minimizing sleep lines and getting a silky smooth hair !UPDATE: i took off 3 stars as the quality went down drastically after a first HAND WASH ...this pillow case is no longer smooth and silky as it was prior the wash. Not sure now if its a real silk and why this pillow case feels and looks like crap after the wash ...

Not real silk this is polyester satin. Totally fake.
Not real silk. Color has faded significantly with each wash which doesn't happen with real silk so its definitely polyester satin. Also hand washing with hang dry leaves this rough still as it's not silk. Total waste of money and time. Beware of all of the fake reviews check fakespot to see its f rating

Great silk case!
So I had bought the ever so popular "Alaska Bear 19momme" silk pillowcase for my mother's birthday. To put it short I wasn't impressed out of the box. It felt kind of scratchy and very thin as you'd expect.But I bought this Celestial Silk 25momme Thicker silk pillowcase for myself. The silk was very noticeably SOFTER and thicker. It felt more higher quality too. This actually came in a nice box with a nice hand-signed name at the bottom detailing who wrapped up the pillowcase.I would definitely recommend getting this thicker silk pillowcase over the Alaska Bear's 19momme.

25 Silk Pillowcase - Real or Not Real?
ANSWERS ARE OUTSTANDING- cases were unwrapped in the delivery package- no labeling to confirm the material as 100% mulberry silk- no labeling to confirm the silk weight as 25 momme- actual dimensions are 19" x 29" versus the advertised 20" x 30"- side zipper was short length and located on the side, but managed to put in a Queen size silk pillow. This acceptable. However, the threading work is not robust and questionable to how long it will work before the joints separate.*** Need confirmation that material is indeed 25mm silk as advertised... "100% Silk Pillowcase for Hair Zippered Luxury 25 Momme Mulberry Silk Charmeuse Silk on Both Sides". Would actually request a copy of the labels that are missing. This is very important to me personally and is very important to Canadian consumers.*** Please note that we did a burn test on a piece of the threading and it proved to not be silk. Why is this when this is supposed to be Luxury silk? Puts great suspicion on whether the fabric is 100% Mulberry silk as advertised.*** Will be willing to upgrade the 2 Stars upon satisfactory response to these concerns.

Poor quality
The silk is poor quality and the pillowcase came with snags in the silk. In addition, I received a different colour than I ordered (blue instead of charcoal gray)

Not roomy enough
Silk fabric is lovely, however, the length of the pillowcase is a few centimetres short and buckles the pillow slightly. I’ve tried it on a couple of pillows with the same result. The Australian standard pillow seems to be bigger than the standard pillowcase supplied.

Was NOT Silk
This product description is inaccurate and is cheap polyester fabric. I would NOT recommend purchasing this product unless you want the look of shinny pillowcases.

Not great
Was not sent the correct colour. Doesn't feel like real silk. Will probably not survive being washed more than once
