What materials should you choose for a natural duvet cover?
If you want a quality duvet cover , you have the choice between several materials. Although some brands offer bed sets made from hemp or other fabrics of natural origin, Bonsoirs specializes in cotton and linen duvet covers , two materials that have proven themselves for years. But why is there so much difference in cotton and which material to choose according to your desires? We explain in detail the advantages of each of our materials.

What are the advantages of a natural duvet cover?
Unlike a mattress or a duvet, the cover is just a simple envelope, it has no filling. However, its choice is crucial if you want to enjoy a good night's sleep. Synthetic duvet covers often make you sweat because they trap moisture. By choosing a breathable material , you gain comfort by regulating your body temperature. A wise choice to avoid finding yourself swimming while sleeping!
When purchasing bed linen for children or adults, it is more appropriate to choose a quality natural duvet cover. Although the synthetic cover generally has a lower cost, it will however be of much lower quality. This means that its lifespan will be limited. A well-made duvet cover can be kept for up to 15 years without any worries! Furthermore, they are easy to maintain since they can be put in the washing machine.
If you don't like ironing your duvet cover, sheets and pillowcases, opt for a washed linen bedding set . This material creates pretty folds when washed, which gives a very cozy look to your bedroom. In both winter and summer, this duvet cover can be used, as it is breathable and therefore will not trap moisture in your bed!
How often should a duvet cover be washed?
If you usually shower in the morning, just before you leave for work, it's best to wash your bed sheets every week . On the other hand, if you shower in the evening just before going to bed, you can keep your duvet cover for another week before putting it in the washing machine. Note that in summer people generally sweat more, which can shorten the frequency of washing your cover and sheets…
