How to Care for Your La Maison du BS 🌿
To keep your favorite pillow soft, beautiful, and hygienic at all times, we recommend the following care instructions:
1. Pillowcase (Organic Cotton with Velvet Piping)
Our pillowcases are made from organic cotton and finished with delicate velvet piping. Proper care will help preserve the fabric’s softness, color, and shape for long-lasting use.
Before Washing
Always remove the pillowcase from the pillow.
Turn the pillowcase inside out before washing to protect the fabric and velvet piping.
Washing
Hand washing is highly recommended.
If using a washing machine, select the Delicate / Gentle cycle.
Use water at room temperature, or not exceeding 40°C (104°F).
Use a mild detergent, such as one formulated for baby clothes or delicate fabrics.
When machine washing, always place the pillowcase in a laundry mesh bag to reduce friction.
Precautions
🚫 Do not use bleach.
🚫 Fabric softener is not recommended
(as it may reduce breathability and the natural softness of organic cotton).
Drying
Air dry under mild sunlight or in a shaded, well-ventilated area.
Avoid prolonged exposure to strong sunlight to preserve color and fabric quality.
🚫 Do not tumble dry, as this may cause shrinkage or deformation.
2. Pillow Core (Organic Latex)
Natural latex is sensitive to heat and direct sunlight. Proper care will help extend its lifespan and maintain optimal support.
General Care
Air out the pillow in a shaded, well-ventilated area 1–2 times per month.
This helps reduce moisture buildup and odors.
If Stained
Use a clean cloth dampened with diluted mild soap (e.g., baby soap).
Wring the cloth until nearly dry, then gently wipe only the stained area.
Blot with a dry cloth to remove excess moisture.
Air dry in the shade until completely dry before use.
Important Warnings (Do Not)
❌ Do not machine wash or soak the latex pillow core.
❌ Do not expose to direct sunlight
(UV rays can cause latex to harden and deteriorate faster).
❌ Do not apply heat, such as hair dryers or irons, to the latex.
💡 Tips for Long-Lasting Comfort
Gently fluff and reshape the pillow every morning after waking up to help it regain its form and provide proper support.
Always use a pillowcase to protect against sweat, moisture, and dust accumulation.
