France 2 talks about Maison de la soie

Maison de la Soie is featured on France 2

France 2 talks about Maison de la Soie on Sophie Davant's morning show "C'est au programme".

They talk about our silk masks and pillowcases.

Beauty columnist Laurence Dorlhac firstpresented the benefits of silk for the skin, then a cosmetology specialist explained in detail the impact of silk on skin hydration compared to cotton.

Here's what the video on France 2's C'est au Programme has to say:

Silk is "a beauty weapon

Since we spend a third of our lives in bed, sleeping with a silk pillowcase could help us age better. Silk keeps the skin hydrated and prevents wrinkles on the face.

When we sleep, we go 7 to 8 hours without drinking. As a result, our skin lacks water and "dry lines" form. To avoid this, we recommend drinking before going to bed and using a silk pillowcase. The latter will keep the skin hydrated.

Silk is a natural protein created by an insect, the mulberry bombyx. It's a molecular tissue that acts like a second skin. Silk fibers therefore help to regenerate cells during sleep.

Silk is better than cotton

Cotton is a hydrophilic fabric, absorbing around 30% of our skin's water, compared with 11% for silk. So, a cotton pillowcase dehydrates our skin and more easily forms wrinkles on our face. A silk pillowcase, on the other hand, preserves skin moisture. What's more, it absorbs creams less, allowing skincare products to work more effectively.

Maison de la Soie, France's silk pioneer

Brands and major retailers are becoming increasingly aware of the benefits of silk. They are increasingly including silk pillowcases in their product ranges and beauty departments. But as the France 2 columnist so aptly points out, Maison de la Soie has been around for a long time and "offers a very beautiful silk". In fact, as silk experts, we've been selling it since 2010.
