IS YOUR COTTON SAFE FOR SENSITIVE SKIN?Updated a month ago

We recommend that you test any fabric sensitivity as per your allergist or physician. 


Our cotton is 100% natural and chosen specifically for its softness and breathability, making it gentle on sensitive skin. We avoid harsh chemical finishes and prioritize comfort, so you can relax knowing our cotton is kind to you and your skin. 

Most people who have a reaction to cotton clothes are usually reacting to the chemicals used in processing the cotton rather than the cotton itself. 

Cotton is naturally soft and high-quality cotton just gets better with every wash. It’s hypoallergenic, making it a perfect choice for sleepwear and robes that are close to your skin for hours on end. Unlike synthetic fabrics that trap heat and irritate skin, cotton allows your skin to breathe all night long, which is key to a truly deep sleep. 


HERE'S MORE ABOUT THE BENEFITS OF SUPERIOR COTTON:

Not all cotton is created equal. There’s regular cotton, and then there’s good cotton. Many brands take shortcuts by treating low quality cotton with chemicals to artificially soften it. It might feel nice at first, but it compromises durability and more importantly, exposes your skin to unnecessary risks. 

I don’t believe in cutting corners. Instead, I spent months sourcing long, fine cotton fibers. This means the fibers in our cotton have been bred to be longer and smoother, resulting in a fabric that is not only naturally soft, but stronger, and less likely to get those rough and unflattering pills over time. Plus, the longer fibers mean I can weave my fabric a little more loosely, so your skin gets added breathability.
