Kim Kardashian’s shapewear and clothing brand, Skims, is offering customers full refunds or store credit after its $148 (£110) advent calendar attracted widespread criticism on social media over the quality and value of its contents.
The 12-day accessories advent calendar was marketed as offering customers “twelve days of fun surprises”. However, several buyers and social media users have questioned the selection of items included, with some describing the products as underwhelming for the price.
The calendar contains items such as hair ties, hair clips, keychains, a teddy bear keychain and a compact mirror. The contents have prompted online jokes, with some users comparing them to miscellaneous items found at the bottom of a handbag or down the back of a sofa.
