Kylie Jenner has been slammed by stunned fans who accused the reality star of 'profiting from the pandemic' by launching her own brand of hand sanitiser.
The 23-year-old Keeping Up With The Kardashians star was excited to reveal to fans that she had released a new Kylie Skin hand sanitiser in a baby pink spray bottle.
The mum of one sent social media into meltdown when she unveiled her latest product on social media, available at the cost of $7 (£5.14).
While many fans couldn't wait to get their hands on the hand sanitiser, some followers criticised the move - arguing that she was 'profiting from the pandemic'.
On Tuesday, Kylie confirmed that the hand sanitiser had dropped on her beauty website.
She wrote: "my @kylieskin hand sanitizer is here!! White heart 80% alcohol, fast drying, and formulated with glycerin to prevent dryness!"
However, fans were quick to criticise the move.
"Kylie really made kylie skin hand sanitizer............. like ? Let’s profit off a pandemic," wrote one follower.
"kylie jenner really out here selling HAND SANITIZER as if it’s something special," added another.
A third joked: "or 4 interest free payments of 1.75 you could have your very own overpriced kylie sanitizer... Kylie’s selling hand sanitizer now lol jeezus. And mf’s gonna buy it.."
Another wrote: "Can you release a vaccine already?"
A representative for Kylie has been contacted by The Mirror for further comment.
Kylie is not the only Kardashian-Jenner star to have come under fire for appearing to cash in on the ongoing pandemic.
Back in March 2020, half-sister Kim Kardashian came under fire for trying to promote her Skims collection in a post where she committed $1 million to the coronavirus relief fund.
