Care Guide

At a Glance

  • Be sure to remove cosmetics, sunscreen, harsh skin, and hair care products before bed as they may contain bleaching agents and cause discoloration.
  • Remove jewelry, watches, or other accessories as it may cause damage to the fabric.
  • Do not use liquid fabric softeners, chlorinated bleach, dryer sheets and powerful stain-removing detergents as these agents may weaken fibers, cause discoloration, and impact the longevity of naturally smooth Egyptian cotton fibers over time.
  • Avoid over filling the washing machine by only washing one unfolded bedding set at a time. Do not combine sets or with other items. Gently fasten any zippers prior to washing to avoid breakage.
  • Don’t use hot water and excessive heat to prevent shrinkage and weakening of natural Egyptian cotton fibers. For sheets, primarily use cold water or warm water if necessary.
  • We recommend using three sets of sheets in rotation: one on the bed, one in the wash, and one in the closet. Doing this allows each set to rest from use and washing.

Prior to Laundering

  • Separate like colors, whites, and dark colors into individual loads.
  • Avoid over filling the washing machine by only washing one unfolded bedding set at a time.
  • Turn pillowcases and duvet covers inside out prior to washing, ensuring that all zippers are closed.
  • Pre-treat any stains by spot treating the area with warm water and a small amount of detergent. Let the spot treatment soak for 15 to 30 minutes before gently rubbing the stain. Wring out any excess water and wash as normal following the care instructions on the care tag.

Washing

  • Do not wash linens with other items in the wash as it can abrade the fabric.
  • We recommend using a mild, liquid and biodegradable detergent that is free of strong stain-removing chemicals, whiteners, brighteners, softeners or bleach as these harsh chemicals can weaken the fine Egyptian cotton fibers and cause color-loss over time.
  • Fill the washing machine with cold water and add ½ of the recommended amount of detergent, unless the linens are particularly soiled then use warm water with the recommended amount, before submerging the linens. Do not pour detergent on top of the linens.

Drying

  • After removing your linens from the wash, gently shake out and unravel your bedding to minimize wrinkles in the drying process.
  • Line-drying your linens is the preferred method to protect and increase the longevity of your linens; however, using a low-heat setting on your dryer such as delicate or permanent press will do.
  • Similar to washing, avoid overloading your dryer and remove your linens just before it's fully dry so it may remain smooth and wrinkle-free.
  • Refrain from using excessive or high heat on Egyptian cotton fabrics, as it can weaken the natural fibers and increase shrinkage.
  • Preventative care is the key to natural wrinkle-free linens! Remove your bedding just before it's fully dry and make the bed to ensure it doesn't shrink & wrinkles don't set in. When closing or opening zippers after drying, slowly and gently fasten to avoid breakage.

Ironing

  • Iron on “cotton” setting to regain lustrous sheen as heat from the iron will not damage the fabric.
  • Check your device for any browning prior to ironing as this may transfer onto your bedding.
  • Avoid ironing directly onto zippers and metal enclosures.
  • To remove tough wrinkles, use the steam setting on your iron or a spray bottle filled with water. Spray directly onto the wrinkle and re-iron the area until it is fully dry and smooth.
  • To preserve stitching and embroidery, reverse the bedding and use a cloth or towel underneath to iron on.

Storing

  • Natural fibers such as Egyptian cotton need to breathe: store bedding in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area.
  • Bedding stored long-term is best wrapped in the original Pure Parima fabric pouch provided and then placed in a recyclable bag or box to avoid permanent yellowing or outside dirt or odors from seeping in.

Tip: Use the Pure Parima box your items came in as a storage solution.

Down & Down Alternative

Dos

  • Machine washable in cold water and gentle cycle (front load machines for inserts).
  • Dry fully in the dryer on LOW with Wool dryer balls or tennis balls to properly fluff and redistribute down.
  • Hold at corners and shake to fluff.
  • These items can be dry cleaned if preferred.

Don'ts

  • Do not use fabric softeners, dryer sheets, harsh liquid, or powdered detergents.
  • Avoid excess detergent.
  • Don't wash with clothing – zippers, hooks, etc. cause abrasion.
