Kim was diagnosed with the autoimmune disease in 2011 and has tried virtually everything to combat the symptoms. She recently launched her line of KKW Beauty body foundation, which she uses to cover her scaly patches when she needs to look picture perfect.

“I’ve learned to live with and not be insecure of my psoriasis, but for days when I want to just cover it up I use this body makeup. My formula is so creamy and buildable and has a smooth satin finish. It builds easily for a more full coverage if needed," she revealed during a product demo on social media.

Her condition has worsened over the years and recently spread to both her face and her groin. "I think the time has come I start a medication for psoriasis. I’ve never seen it like this before and I can’t even cover it at this point. It’s taken over my body. Has anyone tried a medication for psoriasis & what kind works best? Need help ASAP!!!" she tweeted in December 2018.
