" When I started to get a little bit do-or-die was when it set about to deal my face , and there was a spot really close to my eye , and it would just bite a little scrap , " she said .

Over the years,Kim Kardashianhas been pretty open about her experience with psoriasis, and she recently got candid about how a flare-up nearly ruined her 2022Met Galaappearance.

On Tuesday’s episode ofSHE MD, Kim told podcast hosts Mary Alice Haney and Dr. Thaïs Aliabadi that whenever psoriasis shows up on her face, “it’s only this one spot that will itch. And it will really, really itch when it does."

“When I started to get a little bit desperate was when it started to cover my face, and there was a spot really close to my eye, and it would just burn a little bit,” she continued. “I remember I had the Met Ball coming up that week, and it was covering my face.”

“It hadn’t, no. I’m trying to think of what I was going through at that time. There’s a lot I could say,” Kim said. She added that she experienced a flare-up of psoriatic arthritis in addition to the psoriasis.

“I think I manage my stress pretty well, so it’s shocking to me,” she continued.

Kim’s 2022 Met Gala appearance came shortly after her divorce from Kanye West was finalized. Also, around this time, Ye and Kim’s then-boyfriend,Pete Davidson, werepublicly feuding.

Kim added that luckily, no one noticed her psoriasis on the red carpet. “We did put on concealer. And I remember him vividly saying, ‘It’s so crazy that your makeup is holding really well on it.’ So he wasn’t concerned,” she said.

Additionally, she adjusted her diet and “fell asleep with tar patches on [her] face and homeopathic creams. [She] was literally drinking [her] tar teas." She added, “Sometimes I get super insecure about it and I put body makeup on. And sometimes I’m just like, I really don’t care.”

“I was doing everything I could possibly do at that time,” she finished.
