Although she was concerned over the diagnosis, it wasn’t much of a shock for her since her mother, Kris Jenner, suffers from the same condition.

Accepting that she might have to struggle for a perfectly clear face for the rest of her life, Kim has tried out every available ointment, cream, and herbal remedy to cope with the annoying red patches. In one episode of the show, she even applied breast milk to the flare-ups after reading that it might be helpful.

Since then, she has never stopped in her quest for a remedy that could keep psoriasis under control. Back in December 2018, she even tweeted out an urgent message asking followers for recommendations about medications.

Back in 2016, Kim revealed that she thought of psoriasis as a “big flaw”, but wasn’t trying to cover it anymore as part of learning to accept the disease as part of who she was.
