Kim Kardashian and her beauty brand SKKN are being dragged to court for alleged trademark infringement.
s, SKKN and SKKN BY Kim. The reality star and cosmetics mogul is accused of"willful infringement" of an allegedly pre-existing brand name and logo, in a lawsuit filed by Beauty Concepts, a small, Brooklyn-based cosmetics company.
Kardashian's lawyer, Michael Rhodes, denied the allegations made in the lawsuit, telling ET on Wednesday,"This lawsuit is not what it seems. SKKN BY KIM is a new brand that follows in the footsteps of Ms. Kardashian's successful KKW line of products. Building on independent research and development, her company filed a trademark application for SKKN BY KIM to protect the new branded products.
"Undaunted, Beauty Concepts then tried to make its business seem more than it was – it leased a new storefront, changed it website, etc," Rhodes alleges."Several times we reached out to Beauty Concepts, trying to find a sensible path to coexistence. We pointed out that running a small esthetician business in Brooklyn does not give it the right to shut down a global skincare line. In the end, Beauty Concepts didn’t really engage with us beyond demanding a lot of money.
