Pill city!
Initially I would’ve given the eucalyptus sheet set 5 stars- when they first arrived in May I was impressed with how luxurious they felt against my skin; soft, cool and silky. Perfect!
Knowing how expensive these sheets were inspired me to look after my investment. I used gentle detergent, kept the washing temperature cold and always let them air dry.
However, 3 months later and I am extremely disappointed at how much these sheets have pilled. Getting into bed is no longer a luxurious experience; they feel rough and irritating on my skin. I ended up purchasing a de-bobbler to get rid of the pills but it takes time to do and new pills always form afterwards.
This is a real shame because I absolutely loved these sheets when they were new and I prefer supporting independent businesses and making ethical choices where possible. Back to cotton it is!
