silky smooth
Like fine fabric
Silky smooth describes a texture or surface free of any roughness or friction, as pleasant to touch as silk: silky smooth skin, silky smooth hair.
The phrase often appears in advertising for lotions, shampoos, and fabrics.
It extends to non-tactile smoothness—a silky smooth voice, a silky smooth golf swing, a silky smooth transition between scenes.
