Kim Kardashian West has launched a line of facemasks under her SKIMS product line.
The reality TV star and influencer is selling the ‘seamless’ face masks in five colors: onyx, clay, sand, cocoa, and sienna. The face masks are now available for purchase through SKIMS.com, which also sells Kim K’s shapewear.
The range of reusable, non-medical masks cost $8 apiece, although you can buy bundles of two for $15 or four for $25.
Kim Kardashian announced the news via Good Morning America on May 16.
SKIMS has announced plans to donate 10,000 masks to charities in need, on top of a $1 million donation in March. SKIMS has partnered with the National Domestic Workers Alliance, L.A. Food Bank, Good+Foundation and Baby2Baby.
The 39-year old mother of four launched SKIMS in 2019 after years of creating her own shapewear at home and dying it. The company specializes in shapewear for all different skin tones and the latest to come out with is the one size fits all SKIMS Seamless Face Mask.
