Kardashian Klan could be left with an expensive legal bill after they were sued for allegedly stealing the name for Khroma Beauty, for which they are guaranteed to make up to $6.2 million.
Make-up artist Lee Tillett is seeking $10m in damages from the sisters and Boldface Group Inc, which markets their line. She claims it infringes on her Kroma Make-up line, which she founded back in 2004.
Florida native Miss Tillett told the Orlando Sentinel: 'I developed the Kroma line myself, built my business through my own hard work, and took the legal steps necessary to protect it.
'And yet I have now been forced into legal battle with the Kardashians simply because they have decided to take something that doesn't belong to them. She has sent a letter to them via her legal team to stop using her name. No deal was ever reached, but if this is true she could have advance knowledge the name was already in use. Kardashian spokesman Todd Wilson claims the sisters 'have acted properly at all times'.
This is not the only lawsuit the product line is engulfed in at the moment.
Los Angeles-based Chroma Makeup Studio is also suing for alleged trademark infringement.
