When Kim Kardashian needed a special skin care product that catered to her skin texture, she followed her strong entrepreneurial spirit and created it. (Would you expect anything less from a mogul?)
The SKKN BY KIM founder tells PEOPLE that her facialist and esthetician first introduced her to pumpkin enzyme products, which she found to be great for her skin. The ingredient is known to be a gentle exfoliant that can improve skin texture, which Kardashian, 42, says is something she’s “always had a problem with.”
“[A pumpkin enzyme mask] became essential in my skin care routine, so I decided to launch the SKKN BY KIM Resurfacing Mask to share with consumers,” Kardashian tells PEOPLE. “My team and I wanted to offer a gentle exfoliation, and this mask harnesses the power of a fermented enzyme pumpkin and glycolic and lactic acid to improve skin texture and complexion, while glycerin locks in moisture for an instant hydrated glow after a facial. I like to use the mask once or twice a week in addition to my full SKKN BY KIM regimen.”

Kardashian says she likes taking time out of her busy masking schedule to give her those few blissful moments to focus on herself. As a mom of four and an incredibly busy business woman, it’s hard to experience those moments.
“It’s definitely nice to have a moment of self-care—even when I’m busy, I always make time for my skincare routine, especially at night,” she says. The resurfacing mask only requires 10 minutes to sit on the skin, and Kardashian takes full advantage of every one of those minutes. Some nights that might mean sitting still and relaxing, but most nights she says she uses those 10 minutes to get organized.
“I’ll be working on sorting through my drawers, SKIMS closet and maybe use the time to shoot some video content,” she says.

Since Kardashian has such a busy schedule, she has to find time for her skin care routine no matter what else she has — that means you might find her masking up in a few unexpected places. But when you take care of your skin, you take care of it no matter what.
“I like to mask up when I’m travelling, on a plane or in a hotel as part of my prep when I feel like my skin is looking a little lackluster, so I have that fresh, ‘I’ve just had a facial’ before any big event,” she admits.
It all stems from her desire to keep her skin healthy as she ages, she says. Although she once “care about looking younger”, The Kardashians star tells PEOPLE it’s no longer her focus. Instead, he wants to age “voluntarily”. To do this, she “takes care” of her skin in a way that will help her in this.

Kim Kardashian says dealing with acne in her 40s makes her ‘insecure’: ‘It’s really hard’
These days, she’s sticking to a “fresher” look instead of the more glamorous style she used to use, and uses some of the tips she picked up from her mom, Kris Jenner, when it comes to keeping her skin healthy and glowing. Her favorite? To get the best exfoliation for removing makeup at the end of the night, she uses a hot washcloth. It’s that simple.
After learning tips from her mom, Kardashian tells PEOPLE that she hopes to pass on her own skincare wisdom to her own children — North, 10, Saint, 7, Chicago, 5, and Psalm, 4.
“Taking care of your skin is such an important part of my self-care routine, and I hope to instill that philosophy in my kids to always make time for self-care,” she says. “It’s so important to take that time for yourself, for your mind, body and spirit.”

And for skin care lessons she didn’t pick up from Jenner, Kardashian says she turned to her esthetician… and TikTok.
“I love TikTok beauty content — I order everything to try, like skin tools and beauty products and hair hacks, although it can be hard to know what really works. I always ask my esthetician for her opinion on trends, and she always gives me the best advice. ”
