Kim Kardashian’s Skims is offering refunds after shoppers slammed its $148 advent calendar over an assortment of “cheap” hair accessories and keychains.
The 12-day calendar — which included hair ties, scrunchies, clips, bobby pins, key chains and a compact mirror, according to the product description — drew massive criticism from content creators and social media users as unboxing videos began to go viral.
“People buying the skims advent calendar for $150 just to get this has me rolling on the floor,” one user wrote on X, alongside a photo of the contents of the calendar.

“A $148 for a bunch of cheap plastic and hair ties. So she makes a $147 profit? Just another scam,” another wrote.
“For SKIMS to be a CLOTHING brand and not include a single piece of clothing in the SKIMS advent Christmas calendar is crazy and ridiculous actually,” another social media user wrote. “150$ for Bobby pins, scrunchies and tree ornaments WOW.”
Others dubbed the company simply as, “Skams.”
One person pointed out that the advent calendar was labeled specifically as a box of accessories, writing, “Paying for ‘Accessories’ and getting mad when its just accessories is hilarious as f— lmaooo.”
Another wrote, “On the website they listed all the things that will be in the box, I don’t understand the clout people are trying to chase.”

Since its launch in 2019, Skims has drawn attention for its various, buzz-generating products.
In 2023, Skims released a line of bras with an eye-popping addition – built-in protruding nipples that showed through clothing.
“Not your nipples but no one needs to know,” Kardashian’s company posted on X at the time.

The description for the bra read, “The perfect fullness, enhanced shape, and authentic augmentation… with a built-in raised nipple detail for a perky, braless look that makes a bold statement. Its padding gives a ‘sexy, natural-looking lift and support.’”
When Kardashian announced the launch of the perky product, she framed the “faux nipple… shock factor” bra as a solution to global warming. No matter how hot it is outside, the bra will make sure it looks like you’re cold.”
