AUSTRALIA, JUL 31 – Skims launches the $48 Seamless Sculpt Face Wrap to enter the growing wellness market amid debate over its impact on beauty standards and self-image.
- Kim Kardashian's Skims has launched the Seamless Sculpt Face Wrap, marking the brand’s move into wellness and skincare, retailing for $48 in two shades.
- Following its success, Skims bought Coty’s 20 per cent stake to fully control SKNN by Kim, valued at $US4 billion, co-founded by Kardashian, Emma Grede, and Jens Grede.
- Amid wellness trends, Skims’ Seamless Sculpt Face Wrap aligns with rising demand for firming masks, though experts warn effects are temporary and due to reduced puffiness.
- Online reactions ranged from intrigue to outrage, with internet users saying `she's gone too far` and accusing Kardashian of promoting unrealistic beauty standards.
- As the wellness mask trend expands, Skims is the first upmarket brand profiting from this trend, though experts like Jaimee Krawitz warn it reinforces harmful perfectionism among young people.
