Draps en soie, ne transpirez plus la nuit

When we perspire, our night quickly becomes unpleasant. But choosing silk sheets can change all that.

First, find out why you may be prone to excessive perspiration at night. Then, why silk sheets alone are the ideal solution for a peaceful night's sleep.

Why do we sweat at night?

Night sweats can be triggered by a variety of factors. These include

  1. Hormonal fluctuations: Hormonal changes, particularly in women during menstruation or menopause, can influence night sweating.
  2. Stress and anxiety: stress or daily preoccupations can activate the sympathetic nervous system. This can lead to excessive sweating during sleep.
  3. Illnesses: all illnesses lead to an increase in body temperature, and hence excessive sweating.

But all these reasons can be accentuated by your choice of bed linen.

When you choose synthetic or poorly breathable fabrics, they hinder your body's proper skin ventilation. This contributes to the accumulation of heat and humidity.

This makes it difficult for your body to maintain a comfortable temperature. In response, it sweats.

The fabric used for your sheets plays an important role in your night-time perspiration.

Silk sheets: the solution to stop sweating

Silk's natural properties produce a high-quality fabric, ideal for dry nights.

Bed linen benefits from silk's important advantages in regulating perspiration. These include

  • Exceptional thermal regulation: silk acts as a natural thermal regulator. It adjusts body temperature throughout the night and across the seasons. Thanks to silk, your body stays at an ideal temperature every night.
  • Increased breathability: silk lets the skin breathe freely. This optimal ventilation is essential for healthy, soothing sleep.
  • Eliminates excess moisture: By absorbing and wicking moisture, silk maintains a dry environment, reducing night-time perspiration and contributing to a feeling of freshness.

Other benefits of silk for your sheets

In addition to the benefits of silk for perspiration problems, silk sheets silk sheets offer unrivalled comfort and softness.

Skin is protected from friction, making silk sheets ideal for sensitive or irritated epidermis.

Do silk sheets really stop you sweating at night?
Yes. Mulberry silk, with its naturally breathable fibers and excellent moisture wicking capacity, creates a dry, cool sleeping environment by effectively regulating body temperature.
How does the structure of silk help to limit perspiration? data-collapsible-body="" class="accordion__body rte">
Silk fibers have a microporous structure that promotes air circulation. They absorb perspiration and then evacuate moisture quickly, reducing the feeling of wetness during the night.
Doesn't silk overheat? Some say it can be insulating...
Indeed, silk can, in some cases, retain a little heat - especially if the room is already warm or if you're a warm-blooded sleeper. However, its natural thermoregulatory properties mean that, in most situations, you can maintain a comfortable sleeping temperature.
Are there any additional benefits to sleeping with silk?
Silk is hypoallergenic and resistant to dust mites and bacteria, making it ideal for sensitive skin. It's also soft and non-abrasive, reducing friction on skin and hair. And it's more durable and elegant than a simple functional fabric.
What weight of silk (momme) should I choose for a good compromise between comfort, durability and freshness?
A grammage of 19 to 23 mommes, particularly in charmeuse weaves, offers the perfect balance: dense enough to last, without being too warm or heavy, while retaining a beautiful softness.
