Yes! We've had a little branding and name change, which we felt better aligned to our values (and is overall more fun!).

Btw, Argie = argent = an old school way to refer to silver. See what we did there?

Silk
Our silk products are made from 22 Momme 100% Mulberry silk (6A, the highest possible grading). The silk is treated with anti-bacterial silver ions, reducing bacteria by 99.7%.

Plant-based silk

Our plant-based silk is made of 100% 400TC bamboo lyocell, which is derived from pure bamboo pulp, a renewable plant source.

Argie naturally kills acne-causing bacteria and will help prevent:

• Breakouts (pimples)
• Dry or oily skin
• Blackheads & whiteheads

The benefits of silk also:

• Improve skin's collagen retention
• Help regulate skin's oil

Great question! Silvi's Silver Ion Technology works to eliminate two primary types of bacteria, Cutibacterium acnes (C. acnes) [1] and Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) [2]

Both of these bacteria have been linked to acne vulgaris (common acne), which causes pimples, inflamed skin, clogged pores, red papules and nodes. [3] [4]

We're based in Melbourne, Australia.

Yes, although not entirely necessary (nothing bad will happen if you don’t!). It’s always best practice to give clothes and bedding a wash before use.

• Machine delicate wash or hand wash (cold setting)
• Use pH neutral detergent
• Do not bleach, tumble dry or dry clean (no trichloroethylene)
• Iron low heat

To make your Argie last, we recommend washing every 10-14 days (yep, silver keeps your case cleaner for longer).

To maintain the integrity of the pillowcase, we recommend avoiding any products that contain the following ingredients:

• Benzoyl peroxide
• Alpha hydroxy acids
• Chlorine bleach
