Kim Kardashian is once again facing accusations of Blackfishing thanks to her latest makeup tutorial.
Last week, Kardashian took to her Instagram Story to share a video of herself getting ready, which is par for the course. However, it was her hand that ended up raising more than a few eyebrows online.
While applying lip gloss, she added the caption, "don't judge me for my pale hand" — something that drew further attention to the fact that her hand was, in fact, significantly lighter than her face.

And while some reasoned that she may be staying inside or that her "foundation prolly doesn't match her hand," given Kardashian's past history of incurring similar criticism, the majority of people were less than pleased with her preemptive "apology."
"Sorry for being white," comedian Jay Versace corrected, while others straight up called Kardashian out for Blackfishing again.

"She likes being in Blackface," as one commenter wrote, before another person added, "she's so in denial of her true skin color."

I decided to edit Kim to see how she would look if her face matched her hands. And.. well... pic.twitter.com/DeUegmUC1G

Isn’t the first rule of wearing foundation is to choose one that matches with your skin? She probably picks hers based off her kids’ complexions
