Kim Kardashian arrived back in LA after a trip to the Middle East to rack up some paid promotions ... and we spotted the beginnings of a cold sore on her lip as she touched down in Florida. And we can't help but wonder ... could another paycheck be in the mail?

Kim and her family are (in)famous for their shameless endorsements. Kim is the spokesperson for TRIA home laser hair removal. Her mom Kris endorses Zestra Essential Arousal Oli sex-enhancer and Poise pads for bladder leakage. I mean, really, cold sore medicine would be far less embarrassing! And probably quite profitable!

On a more serious note ... KK wasn't exactly well-received in Bahrain and Kuwait. Protestors started rioting near the capital city of Manama on Saturday and had to use tear gas to disperse the crowd. Demonstrators carried signs reading, "Kim Not Welcome" and "Syria receives martyrs while Bahrain receives w*****." Yikes!
