Kim Kardashian recently opened up about how a flare-up from psoriasis affected her preparation for a Met Gala event shes attended in the past.

During an appearance on Tuesdays episode of the SHE MD Podcast, the reality TV star discussed her journey living with psoriasis and how she once had a flare-up leading up to the annual star-studded fundraiser for the Metropolitan Museum of Arts Costume Institute in New York City.

While describing how she manages flare-ups that occur on different parts of her body, she said that she started to get a little bit desperate when her psoriasis started to affect her face.

There was a spot really close to my eye, and it would just burn a little bit, she said. And I remember I had the Met ball coming up that week and it was covering my face.
