Fans slam Kylie Jenner for ‘risky’ skin care range 😱

Beauty mogul and reality TV star Kylie Jennerhas branched out from the world of makeup and dived into the market of skin care, taking to her Instagram last week (10th May) to announce her new brand - Kylie Skin.

Despite multiple congratulations from friends, fans and family members, the mother-of-one has recently faced a whirlwind of backlash on social media. Specifically picking out the walnut face scrub, fans have described it as, 'too abrasive to exfoliate your face and instead you end up with micro tears on your skin' [sic].

The range features six products, allegedly suitable for all skin types. This includes face wash, toner, moisturiser, eye cream, a serum and of course...the walnut face scrub.

Taking to Twitter, one fan wrote, 'As much as I love, admire and respect Kylie Jenner - creating a walnut based face scrub is not OK. I’d rather pay a bit extra to use a product that’s not going to tear my skin to pieces. Sometimes looking for a cheaper alternative isn’t always the better option... #KylieSkin' [sic]

Another wrote, 'PSA: don’t buy Kylie jenner’s walnut skin scrub. Walnuts and other nuts are too abrasive to exfoliate your face and instead you end up with micro tears on your skin. Which leads to wrinkles and premature aging.' [sic]

Skin specialist Amanda Von Hagen spoke to Metro about the scrub, saying, "Firstly, the scrub is an exfoliant so suggesting the use to be daily is dangerous as this can strip your face of natural oils and moisture which leads to skin becoming dehydrated, flaky and prone to mass irritation.

"Even if the walnuts are crushed down to powder form, they can damage your skin and yes after time can break down your skin barriers and cause micro-tears in the skin."

Not to mention, if you have a nut allergy you will have to stay clear of the product, with Amanda suggesting you should, "in fact [steer clear of] any other of the products as there is a risk of cross contamination."

The range is set to launch on 22nd May, 2019.
