All the Kardashian-Jenner members became the experts and trendsetters in the contouring world as they always appear with effortless nude makeup looks in the publicity. The Kardashians’ flawless contouring styles have absolutely kicked off the worldwide beauty trends. More than thousands of tutorial videos were released on social media platforms, including by Kim and Kylie. This viral shows how people want to achieve the completed looks like the Kardashians.

The contouring frenzy encouraged many cosmetics brands to produce specific kits for contouring, and the Kardashian used cream pigments instead of a bronzer to create face dimension. Nevertheless, Kim Kardashian—the well-known influencer who popularised the contouring technique, which is the makeup technique of using dark and light powders to create more dimensions of cheekbones and overall face— popped the business idea of her own products. In 2017, Kim founded KKW Beauty after the excessive success of Kylie, her younger half-sister in the beauty field. The initial collection launched the four contour kits in neutral skin shades. The medium shade was sold out in minutes, bringing in millions for the reality star.

In 2020, Kim faced the issue of uncured psoriasis. But, on the other hand, she has found a way to conceal it by producing KKW Beauty Body Makeup as the new product line.

Kim used her own KKW Beauty Body Collection to cover red marks on patches from a psoriasis flare-up. She demonstrated how she applied the liquid cover-up on her legs in a video on Instagram. Also, the before-and-after candid has been posted to show how practical and impressive the skin product is.

In an interview with Business of Fashion, Sue Nabi, chief executive officer at Coty, said their company planned to launch a skincare brand with Kardashian between April and July 2022. Also, they want to create fantastic skincare in terms of quality and ingredients. However, neither Kim nor Coty confirmed Skkn by Kim is the product line’s name.

Biker Shorts = SKIMS

Kim Kardashian was the style-setter who started to showcase this functional piece of clothing on the runways. Kim was rapid hopping on the trend, raising the attention of Chanel, Saint Laurent, Tommy Hilfiger, and more who chose to include this controversial-for-external-use clothing item in their collections. Bike shorts were popular back in the 80s and 90s, and Kim brought them back and took her love for them to a whole new level, making them appropriate for fashionable daily wearing.

In 2019, Kim successfully established SKIMS Solutionwear, the neutral shade of underwear and loungewear brand. According to Forbes magazine, the collection, which comes in various sizes (XXS to 4XL), is valued at over $500 million. 

In 2021, SKIMS had doubled in value to $3.2 billion in 9 months and was estimated to jump more than double constantly.

SKIMS the Solutionwear

The original name KIMONO sparked a backlash from netizens who criticized her use of the word “kimono,” a traditional and national Japanese costume. As a result, Kim faced accusations of cultural appropriation and the trend #KimOhNo. In addition, the Japanese International Ministry set the charge of $10 million. Therefore, she has to pay the cost and change her brand name to SKIMS.
