No. Every pair has a cotton lining inside the pouch, so the embroidery sits on the outer layer and never touches sensitive skin directly. The raised floral texture is only on the outside — the inside feels smooth and soft.

Hand wash in cold water with mild detergent, or use a mesh laundry bag on a gentle cycle. Never use a dryer — hang dry or lay flat. The embroidery thread is stitched through the mesh, not glued, so it holds up well with gentle care. Avoid wringing or twisting.

The raised embroidery texture can show under very tight or thin fabrics like leggings. Under jeans, chinos, or anything with structure, they sit flat and invisible. If you want a fully smooth line under tight clothing, our ice silk or cotton styles are a better choice for that.

Lace is a woven pattern in the fabric itself — it's flat and uniform. Embroidery is thread stitched on top of the fabric, creating raised, three-dimensional floral details you can see and feel. Embroidered pieces have more visual depth and a more handcrafted look than lace alone.
