Source · high confidence. Wikipedia says she founded KKW Beauty and KKW Fragrance in 2017 and that both operated until 2022. Coty bought 20% for $200 million at a $1 billion valuation (announced June 2020; Fox Business and Beauty Matter, opened 2026-10-18; Fox reported closing in early January 2021). An earlier version of this profile said she kept 72%; no source opened states that figure, and Coty's own release could not be opened, so it was removed.
