KIM Kardashian has been slammed as “out of touch” after fans spotted the jaw-dropping prices of her new skincare products.
The reality star introduced SKKN BY KIM today, featuring products for an extensive nine-step skincare routine.
Following the announcement about the new products, an interview with The New York Times took a closer look at the philosophy behind the lengthy routine and the prices of the products.
41-year-old Kim describes her new range as “prestige”.
Altogether, the nine items, including a cleanser, a toner and an exfoliator, come to a total of $630.
Some of the specialist products, including a hyaluronic acid serum and a night oil, are $90 and $95 each respectively.
Fans of the reality star were not impressed and took issue with the high price point.
On Twitter, one wrote: “$630? That s**t better be super-sized. Who the hell could afford that?”
Another chimed in: “You can buy all of that stuff for less than $100 with other brands. None of that stuff is special.”
One user on Reddit added: “So incredibly unlikeable this makes her”.
Another described the famous family as “really entering their out of touch era…”

Despite the reaction, billionaire Kim maintains that the high prices are a “necessity” in order to obtain ingredients in the products that she “would not really miss out on”.
Speaking to The New York Times, she added: “The products I was using that were comparable were way more expensive, not to compare anything.
“I tried to get the quality for the best price that we could, especially the vitamin C serum.”
The mom-of-four also stood by the lengthy nine-step routine, insisting that all the products are “necessary.”
However, she revealed that she would be prepared to go further than using regular skincare ingredients in order to achieve the look she is after.
