Design your own silk face mask

From two pieces to one

We handmake your custom silk face mask by printing your designs on two pieces of silk and stitching them together with your choice of black or white thread. The handmade nature of our masks means that a continuous print will not be matched up over the seams. This seam helps to create the structure of the mask and can elegantly complete your design. It's the perfect opportunity to print two complementary designs.

We use industry-leading techniques to print your design onto the silk. These methods produce a vibrant print without changing the luxurious feel of the fabric and don’t compromise its beautiful sheen. The inner silk layer of the custom silk face mask will remain unprinted.

How your mask will fit

The custom silk face mask is available in one size and will fit most face sizes and shapes. Refer to the maximum face size suited for this mask in our size chart. Silicone size adjusters on the ear loops can be tightened or loosened to help the mask fit. The printed silk face mask is 9.4" wide and each ear loop is 8.7" around.

Here’s how to measure your face:

1. Measure from the middle of your nose to just behind your ear, and multiply this measurement by two.
2. Measure from the middle of your nose to just below your chin

To properly wear your custom silk face mask, slip the ear loops around each ear and adjust the position of the mask to cover your nose and mouth. Mold the flexible nose bridge to your face, move the ear loop size adjusters to a place that feels comfortable, and you’re good to go.

How to care for your mask

Silk is a wonderful fabric that deserves to be treated well. To care for your silk face mask, gently hand-wash after each use to keep it hygienic. Use a mild soap or a specialized silk detergent and hang to dry. Do not machine wash or dry. Your mask can be ironed on medium heat. If you notice any creasing due to water or wear, you can iron your mask to keep it looking fresh.

Please note that this is not a medical-grade mask (which is recommended by the World Health Organization to prevent coronavirus) and does not prevent coronavirus infection. Please do not purchase this product with the false understanding that it will protect you against illness. Because of hygiene concerns, face masks are non-returnable.

A printed silk face mask is the perfect way to elevate this everyday accessory. Upload your art and choose between white or black stitching to complement your design. Featuring a flexible nose bridge and ear loops with size adjusters, the custom silk face mask molds to the face and stays in place, which can help reduce the foggy glasses dilemma. Our 100% pure silk fabric can be comfortably worn all day without causing skin irritation. Silk is naturally cooling and hypoallergenic, which makes it perfect for those with sensitive skin. The lack of friction from this fabric means it won't cause breakouts, and since silk doesn't absorb much moisture, it won't dry out your skin. Best of all, the printed silk face mask can be hand-washed and reused again and again.

How Would you Like the Edge?

We have four finishing options for your fabric order: 

• As it comes. We cut around your image, leaving a simply scissor cut, perhaps uneven white fabric border. 
• Hem with thread. We can hem your fabric with a choice of black or white thread. Please allow 1-2 days additional production time. See below for information on how hemming affects the size of your print. We offer an overlock hem, as well as a folded hem (one or two fold depending on the fabric) however not all fabrics are suited to both hem types. If you can see both options, it means both are suitable, and you will be able to choose whichever you prefer. 
• Cut on the line. We will cut neatly on the edge of your design. This means that if you have a border around your design we will cut around that border, if your design takes the whole space of the fabric, then we will neatly cut around the edge of that image. Please be aware, when we cut along the line, we have to cut against the grain of the fabric. This is the standard procedure for fabric cutting. This means that with some fabrics, for example, Georgette and Mulmul, which have a slight wave in them, some fraying will occur. This is unavoidable, as the cut follows the grain of the textile. 

All of our fabrics are cut manually by hand, with the utmost care and attention. If your fabric has a slightly uneven look on the edges or a touch of fraying, this does not indicate a flaw in the textile. It is not always possible to achieve a perfectly straight cut with certain fabrics, so please do bare this in mind when it comes to your design. If you have any queries or would like to know about our cutting methods in more detail, please get in touch and we will be more than happy to discuss them with you.

Please note: As we make everything by hand, all sizes may vary slightly.

Are silk masks better for my skin?

Silk is a hypoallergenic material that tends to absorb less moisture, meaning it won’t dry out your skin. It creates less friction and is therefore comfortable to wear for a while without clogging pores or causing irritation. The silk itself is incredibly smooth and cooling.

How long will the mask take to dry?

This varies based on climate and temperature, but after handwashing your custom silk face mask, it should air dry on its own in about 45 minutes. Heat can damage the fibers, but if necessary, you can use the dryer on a non-heat setting for 15 minutes.

Will this mask fit my face?

Our printed silk mask is one size but can be adjusted to better fit your face. It is 9.4" wide and each ear loop is 8.7" around. The ear loops feature silicone size adjusters that can be moved to loosen or tighten the mask. The flexible nose bridge molds to your face to fit comfortably which can help reduce issues with condensation fogging up glasses.
