Chemical equilibrium

If the reactants are pure solid and we increase the concentration of products then the value of kp and kc will affect or not ???
According to the mass action law, it would not affect: if one of the substances - no matter whether reactants or products - are increased, it comes back to an equilibrium. So if one of the products is increased, the reactants increase too. Same goes for vice versa.

This prevents the disturbance of (chemical) equilibrium.
