Kim Kardashian BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.

Kim Kardashian has once again seized headlines this week for both her entrepreneurial drive and polarizing influence in the wellness and beauty world. On August 8, Kim spotlighted her personal *stem cell journey* on Instagram, detailing how she traveled to Mexico for treatments with Dr. Adeel Khan at Eterna Health to cure her debilitating shoulder pain and chronic back pain. She described these therapies as life-changing, claiming instant results and a dramatic end to her suffering. However, the post provoked a fiery backlash, with followers calling out the cost and exclusivity of a procedure that ranges from four to fifteen thousand dollars and is not currently available in the United States. Comments flooded in, with fans reminding her that most people cannot afford to fly to Mexico for medical relief, and others drew on her own family’s memed moments by pointing out, “Hey Kim, we’re poor,” and “Kim, there’s people that are dying,” echoing sister Kourtney’s now-iconic Keeping Up With the Kardashians retort. According to People and E! News, while Kim expressed gratitude for medical advancements, critics said she was out of touch and used the post to promote her new SKIMS face shapewear product.

Speaking of SKIMS, Kim is facing a fresh social media storm after launching the brand’s Seamless Sculpt Face Wrap, a collagen-infused jawline shaper that instantly sold out but met with accusations of cashing in on people’s insecurities. Parade and BuzzFeed captured the online furor, with users blasting the invention as “a medieval torture device for your face” and accusing Kim of profiting from beauty anxieties—though some did suggest potential benefits for people with TMJ jaw pain. Despite the trolling, the face wrap’s sellout status underscores Kim’s continued commercial touch and her tendency to turn internet controversy into sales gold.

In significant business news, Kim’s SKIMS is making bold global expansion moves, opening its first brick-and-mortar store in the Middle East at Dubai’s Mall of the Emirates, as reported by the Times of India and widely covered in Gulf region fashion media. This Dubai flagship marks SKIMS’s entry into the region’s luxury market and is a key pillar in Kim’s stated retail strategy to build a worldwide presence, with further plans for permanent stores in the UK and Mexico on the horizon. SKIMS continues to post remarkable sales and is now valued at four billion dollars, amplifying Kim’s standing as a major player not just in pop culture, but in global fashion and retail.

Meanwhile, major outlets like BrandVM.com and BuzzFeed are tying Kim into the ongoing Kardashian-Jenner saga as the world’s most visible and diversified celebrity family, leveraging everything from beauty and loungewear to private equity, making her both a commercial and cultural engine. On social media, her posts and product launches—whether loved or loathed—almost always trend and capture the zeitgeist. No major public appearances or philanthropic activities have been reported in the last few days, and rumors remain tightly focused around her business empire rather than her personal life. The headlines say it all: Kim Kardashian remains both a lightning rod and a mogul.
