And one woman decided to buy herself a set of pimple patches in the shape of different bakery items to keep up with the trend.
Kim, from the US, took to social media to show off her new skincare purchase, but it didn't go quite to plan.
The brunette beauty warned that while the stickers looked adorable in the package, it didn't have the same payoff once applied to the face.
Kim had used a cream cone style to cover a spot on her cheek and on her nose.
But she soon realised it looked like she had worms or necrosis covering her face.
"This is your sign not to get pimple patches that are f**king pastry party print," she said.
"What the f**k."
The beige coloured cone mixed with the dark 'chocolate' centre made it look like Kim had larvae coming out of her face, leaving her horrified.
"Out of all of the options. Thanks babe," she captioned the post.
It wasn't just Kim left shocked by how the pimple patches looked.
Social Media Reaction
People were quick to take to the comments, claiming they thought she had a flesh-eating disease at first glance.
The clip went viral on her TikTok account @ hheykim with over 10 million views and 680k likes.
One person wrote: "I thought you had the flesh-eating bacteria going on."
Another commented: "Girl, I thought there was some unknown entity eating away at you?"
"Ma'am, I thought that was an insect eating your flesh lmaoo," penned a third.
Meanwhile a fourth said: "I was so afraid for you. It took me a while to realise those were croissants, not necrosis."
"I thought you had a hole in your nose I was freaked,' claimed a fifth
Someone else added: "This was a terrifying experience, genuinely."

2025 will focus on skin repairing and texture-enhancing treatments.
Skincare
Rejuran treatment, a celebrity-endorsed procedure, will see a rise in demand this year as many seek to enhance their skin's appearance. The procedure entails injecting polynucleotides derived from salmon DNA to enhance skin texture and elasticity. 'Rejuvenation is expected to dominate 2025 skincare trends as many seek to achieve a flawless, youthful complexion.
Skincare will also include back-to-basic products for a simplified routine.
Ginseng cleansing oil and panthenol cream are among the trending products for 2025. The cleansing oil is excellent for dissolving make-up and impurities without clogging pores and is enriched with nourishing properties to leave the skin feeling and looking refreshed and radiant.

Peel-off lip stains circulated the beauty industry in 2024 and are expected to dominate in 2025.

Zainab Johnson: Toxically Optimistic review – US comic targets gun culture
'I've got a gun.' Nice to be pitched, with that opening line, straight into a show declaring itself different from the others. Zainab Johnson's maiden fringe set – although she's already a big noise in the US – gives an account of how she came to own a firearm. It's not an explicitly political show – if a show about gun ownership by a black, Muslim, American female is allowed to be anything but. But Toxically Optimistic does invite engagement with some searching questions about guns, their use, and the safety they supposedly ensure – even if, so poised is Johnson's delivery, you barely notice it doing so. Hers is that particularly American style of standup that can feel too polished for UK tastes: smiling, slick and a little bit frictionless. If a British comedian tells a dating story, you can bet they'll be the butt of the joke; when Johnson does, it's to lord it over the short guy who wants but can't have her. Small wonder she is, by her own account, an eternal optimist – even if that quality is now to be tested when a friend tells her, apropos of her buying her own house, that she should acquire a gun without delay. Is that so? Johnson resists, and keeps resisting, even when her friend drags her to a shooting range, even when she imagines the home invasion scenario that might make a gun worthwhile. She asks herself questions about fear, with reference to an odd anecdote about a homeless man and a 'bucket of shit', and about safety, which has arguably been secured, but at what cost? Delivered with authority by the Harlem comic, the tone is smooth and philosophical, with the safety catch coming off only occasionally – see the excellent joke explaining why she takes notes when out on a first date. The show's final quarter pivots to a different subject entirely – and a less compelling one, too, notwithstanding that Johnson justifies it persuasively with a take-that reveal at the end. If you didn't know she was armed and dangerous before, that fine flourish of an ending proves it. At Pleasance Courtyard, Edinburgh, until 24 August All our Edinburgh festival reviews

The Wow singer certainly wowed the fans, showcasing his broad tattoo-covered chest as he modeled a pair of camo briefs and a white cowboy hat, all while enjoying the great outdoors. The versatile undies were also worn while gathering firewood. 'That camouflage is so incredible even I can't see it,' wrote one commenter. Post Malone is bringing the heat in a new Skims campaign. The country star and single dad showed his rugged good looks and his fit form modeling new looks from the brand's men's line on social media 'He's a gentleman and she's a queen,' one person said the collaboration between the singer and SKIMS founder Kim Kardashian 'Omggggg,' stated another. Malone revealed he had lost some 60 pounds in 2023 and has maintained it since then. He's become accustomed to thrilling his fans by taking his shirt off during performances, including recent concerts with Jelly Roll on their Big Ass World Tour. The Billboard Music Award winner, who bought his own horse earlier this year, showed off his riding skills. He modeled a white T-shirt made of 100-percent cotton and a pair of dark blue jeans in a series of sexy snaps. Another showed him taking it easy in a camo T-shirt while relaxing on a fence. 'What we didn't know we needed!!!,' exclaimed a fan. 'HOTTEST COWBOY,' was another popular comment. 'He's a gentleman and she's a queen,' one person said the collaboration between the singer and the reality star. 'Post-ing up! (sorry couldn't help myself )' wrote Kate Hudson. 'If this ain't genius idk what is,' said a fan. In a video from the photo shoot, Malone is sitting atop the horse and delivered the tagline 'Everybody's wearing Skims.' The Cooped Up artist, who appears to be an enthusiastic outdoorsman, took the opportunity to work on his tan while fishing shirtless in a pair of knee-length fleece shorts. 'Okayyyy Posty!!!!' exclaimed one commenter, adding a emoji with heart eyes. 'He looks good in this,' stated another. One commenter, perhaps hoping to bring the fantasy home, shared, 'okay my man needs this collection.' In true Skims fashion, the brand is building excitement before the clothes are actually available. The new line will be launching on Thursday at 10 am ET/ 7am PT.

Tracee Ellis Ross, 52, bares it all in new campaign while unveiling new body care line
Tracee Ellis Ross proved 52 has never looked better while stripping down for a fiery new campaign to announce her latest beauty venture. On Tuesday, the entrepreneur unveiled Pattern Body, the first body care collection from her brand Pattern Beauty, with a sizzling set of promo images that immediately set the internet ablaze. In the bold shoot, Ross, who recently made headlines for her wildly unconventional in-flight beauty routine, appears nude alongside another model, both glowing against a vibrant red backdrop as they embrace and laugh with radiant confidence. Another shot shows the Black-ish star seated cross-legged in a golden bodysuit, flashing her signature smile while surrounded by the brand's colorful new products. The five-piece line, which includes a body wash, exfoliating dry scrub, lotion, rich cream, and body oil, launches on August 21. Ross explained that expanding into body care has always been part of her vision since she founded Pattern in 2019. 'It's the reason I named the company Pattern Beauty and not Pattern Hair,' she told Elle. 'These products are for every body — every shape, size, color, and texture.' And while her decision to bare it all has fans buzzing, Ross insists it's about more than creating a viral moment. 'I want you to be able to use these products and remember who you are,' she said. 'Scrub, hydrate, and love it. I want that skin to pop, glow, and look like an expression and reflection of your soul!' Additionally, she told Forbes: 'Each of these products is anchored in my personal routine.' Underneath her post, Ross' celebrity pals and fans were quick to celebrate her new body care line. '[Three heart-shaped eyes,]' Jennifer Garner commented. Another wrote: 'I am OBSESSED!!! THE PACKAGING!!! ARE YOU KIDDING!!!'

Others praised the actress for tagging 'everyone who went into making this short video.' 'I think regular people and brands alike need to get used to seeing and understanding the immense work, time, and coordination that goes into these campaigns!!' one Instagram user wrote. A second commented: 'I'm so here for not only the products but how you all have each and every person involved credit and highlighted them. You don't see brands do that too often!'
