Miranda Kerr's Morning Face Routine Revealed
LA Times Studios may earn commission from purchases made through our links. When a press release from KORA Organics landed in our inbox detailing Miranda Kerr's personal skincare routine, it read like a wellness diary. The founder, supermodel, and certified health coach is her own best case study, layering her high-performance, certified organic skincare line every morning with the precision of a facialist and the intention of a yogi. 'Ever wondered what Miranda actually uses on her skin every day to achieve that luminous glow?' the release teased. Turns out, it's not a 10-step routine, it's a few thoughtfully chosen essentials designed to brighten, energize, and protect. 'I created KORA Organics because I couldn't find products that were certified organic, results-driven, and aligned with my values,' Kerr shares. 'I use every single product in my line, I'm obsessed with moisturizing and making my skincare ritual something that gives back to me.' Here's exactly how she starts her day, and why her morning lineup might just upgrade yours. Kerr kicks off her day with the Turmeric Glow Foaming Cleanser, a brightening wash infused with peppermint and Palo Santo. 'It clears your energy,' she says. 'I really look forward to my routine because it feels like it gives back to me.' Peppermint invigorates, turmeric calms, and the aromatherapy? Consider it a morning meditation. The turmeric-based formula calms inflammation while lifting away overnight oil and sweat, which is especially important as warmer weather kicks in. Dermatologists increasingly recommend adjusting cleansers with the seasons, as the skin can shift from dry to oily as temperatures rise. Next comes the Noni Bright Vitamin C Serum, powered by Kakadu Plum, one of the richest natural sources of vitamin C on Earth. 'I've been using this daily for about six months and have noticed a huge difference,' Kerr says. 'It's helped soften fine lines and reduce pigmentation from pregnancy.' The result? Brighter, firmer skin that looks like it had a full night's sleep (even if you didn't). What makes this formula stand out is Kakadu plum, one of nature's most potent sources of vitamin C. It offers all the brightening and collagen-supporting benefits of synthetic serums but with a gentler, plant-based twist. And yes, science backs it up: Kakadu plum has made multiple lists of most effective skincare ingredients, thanks to its impressive antioxidant profile. This rich cream doubles as skincare and a subtle luminizer, thanks to turmeric extract and licorice root. 'I wanted to create a super-luxurious face cream,' Kerr explains, 'that bathed your skin in radiance while targeting dark spots and fine lines.' If you love a moisturized glow that plays well under makeup, this one's your ride-or-die. It also taps into one of the most consistent findings in dermatology: hydrated skin ages better. Moisture is key in preserving elasticity and reducing the appearance of fine lines. And this moisturizer hits both notes, restoring water content while delivering a visible glow. Kerr wraps her morning ritual with Silky Sun Drops, a certified organic SPF that was five years in the making. 'It doesn't leave a white cast and gives your skin a beautiful, dewy glow,' she says. Plus, it wears like a dream under foundation, consider it the high-performing SPF your makeup bag's been missing. It's a final protective step that doubles as a highlighter, leaving skin radiant, not greasy. Miranda Kerr's morning routine is a lesson in quality over quantity. Each product multitasks with purpose, backed by plant science and her personal stamp of approval. It's less about chasing glow and more about cultivating it, layer by certified organic layer. Because when a supermodel shares her skincare secrets (and uses them herself), you listen. Click here to learn more about Kora Organics

27 Sephora Products With A Ton Of 5-Star Reviews
A bottle of Kora Organics Turmeric Glow Foaming Cleanser rich in antioxidants that'll remove makeup in a jiffy and make your skin ✨glow. ✨ Lots of reviewers call it the best face wash they've ever tried, so get in there and join their 5-star ranks! Promising reviews: "I was scared to try this product at first because I have dry, sensitive skin, but I still decided to give it a go. This has been the best face wash I have used and has cleared my face so well! I will buy again and highly recommend!" —Ally"I started using this face wash a couple of months ago, and it's been amazing for my skin! It has cleared up my pores and dark spots so much. It's the only face wash that makes my skin feel clean as someone who is acne-prone." —evamarunowskiPrice: $19+ (available in two sizes) Some Haus Labs (by Lady Gaga!!) medium coverage foundation reviewers going gaga for! And with good reason: buildable coverage, A+ ingredients, and the kind of lightweight breathability that will make you forget you're wearing anything at all, this foundation is abracadabra-amazing. Promising reviews: "Spent years trying to find the perfect foundation and this is it! Lasts all day, wears beautifully and perfect color match." —emily7394839"Probably one of the few foundations that not only looks good but feels incredible on the skin. Super lightweight with a natural finish and matches my otherwise difficult to match skin perfectly! Highly recommend!" —sard92"I usually wear a skin tint, but I wanted a foundation for more glam occasions. This foundation is perfection! It covered pimples, acne scars, looks like skin, and is that perfect balance of glowy and matte. 100 out of 10 recommend!" —HayleyB2025Price: $49 (available in 51 shades) Hourglass Skin Tint, aka my new holy grail that reviews convinced me to buy with my human dollars, AND I'M SO GLAD I DID. It does exactly what we want it to in the summer: perfectly blurs pores and redness without detracting from your own perfect skin. And y'all: I just put this on with my fingers. It is my new fave post-skincare sidekick. I needed something for the hot, HOT Texas summer that was going to give me an assist on facial redness, but not something that was going to melt off my face in clumps the second I stepped outside or leave me looking streaky if I sweat. I've been lovingly calling this my Balayage daily skin treatment because it blends in PERFECTLY when first applied, but doesn't make me look splotchy throughout the day. I pair this with the mini version of the Charlotte Tilbury Airbrush Flawless Finish Setting Powder and honestly? I feel like it's light enough I don't *need* to bother with much else if I don't want to. THE HYPE IS REAL, Y'ALL!Promising reviews: "I've worn this three times now and EVERY single day someone has asked me what I've done to my skin to make it look so good. Today someone asked me if I just had a facial, so needless to say this is a new staple." —RhiJulia"Lightweight skin tint with flawless coverage. I received so many compliments about my makeup. I will be wearing this all summer long." —meghui604Price: $49 (available in 18 shades) Everyone's favorite Ilia The Base Face Milk that is making the rounds on the internet for a reason: It is the perfect base for makeup and gives your skin that dewy glow without weighing it down. If you want to feel like you've been blessed by a milk fairy, this is 100% worth the splurge. See why it's worth the hype in this TikTok!Hi. Me again. I was also taken in by the hype of seeing this literally all over my FYP, and once again, the people were RIGHT. I don't use this every day, but I do have some dryness in my T-zone for which I will "pull out the big guns" for special events, etc. This is that big gun. I can see myself using it even more this summer in place of heavier hydrating review: "Improved my skin texture and dryness so much! What people don't realize is this is NOT a heavy moisturizer or face cream. It's a base. You put this on right before you use a heavier moisturizer or face cream. As someone with severe dry and flaky skin, this has stopped all of that texture and leaves my skin more glowy." —chrissyqnsPrice: $28+ (available in two sizes) The Dr. Jart+ Cicapair Tiger Grass Color Correcting Treatment with SPF 30. As a person who constantly has little red splotches on my face despite excellent skincare, I am obsessed with this stuff. The centella in this is a miracle worker and will give you an even-looking skin tone in SECONDS without needing heavy concealer or foundation. Paula's Choice 2% BHA Liquid Exfoliant — the GOAT of chemical exfoliants because it's easy to use and reviewers say it actually works to help clear blemishes, reduce the appearance of pores, and clean out all that deep-seated gunk we don't want in our skin. This is basically taking a Hoover to your pores, and you can thank me later for adding it to your cart yesterday. A Dieux Instant Angel moisturizer with over a thousand 5-star reviews and the kind of "JUST DO IT" attitude from its devotees that will have you wondering how you missed the boat. ("The boat" being peptide and lipids getting together to moisturize your face and mend your skin barrier, of course.) This product is free of parabens, formaldehyde, phthalates, mineral oil, sulfates (and other ingredients), and contains less than one percent synthetic fragrance. It is also gluten-free, cruelty-free, and comes in recyclable reviews: "I have really dry skin and am always trying new moisturizers, but keep coming back to this one. My skin absorbs it, leaving a perfect canvas for sunscreen and makeup, without an oil slick or sticky feeling that I get from other dry skin moisturizers." —lucysunshine7"I have oily, combination, acne-prone skin. I am using tretinoin, so I do get some dry patches from this treatment. I also live in Minnesota, where we have very dry and cold winters. This has SAVED my skin! My skin barrier is so much better. It no longer feels sensitive to the weather, and my dry patches are gone. It wears beautifully under makeup, and it does not make me any more oily during the day. I love the silkiness and the way it makes my skin feel. I understand the hype. I will always have this on my vanity!" —amklickPrice: $45 (also available in a value size) A tube of Tatcha Rice Wash Skin-Softening Cleanser for the gentlest wash of your life. With a texture that screams luxury, you'll actually look forward to washing off all your makeup at the end of the day because your face will feel so soft when you're done! Promising review: "Every time my friends or family come over, they use this. And every time they are like?? OK, wow, that's amazing. It's just the best. I didn't know a cleanser that's on your face for like max 60 seconds could make such a difference, but it does." —KaityLauzPrice: $18+ (available in two sizes) The Summer Fridays Lip Butter Balm because it is everywhere right now: celebrity GRWMs, "what's in my bag" interviews, and very likely your bestie's pocket, too. Super hydrating without being tacky, and with just a *smidge* of color that will have you looking like you just stepped off the set of a period drama, you're going to have a hard time picking just one. I bought three shades "to rotate between" and now they ALL live in my purse always. review: "This is my holy grail for extremely dry lips. I love the feeling, and it stays on for a long time." —relax4lfePrice: $24 (available in nine shades) Some K18 Leave-In Repair Hair Mask Treatment to revitalize your tired tresses and give them the nutrients and fluff they need, too. Simply shampoo like normal and skip the conditioning, because this tiny tube packs a BIG punch and can help you all on its own post-wash. BuzzFeed editor Melanie Aman swears by this stuff:"I bleach my dark brown-black Asian hair blonde every six to eight weeks, so I was immediately intrigued when I first heard some stylists at my salon raving about K18. And it turns out the rest of the world loves it, too, because it was sold out at Sephora the first time I tried to buy it. I eventually snagged a bottle and was gobsmacked at how much softer my hair was. Seriously. I spent the whole day touching my hair, and even my boyfriend agreed that my mane was noticeably was my go-to before I tried K18, and I still stand by it as a product, but I really love that K18 is a leave-in treatment rather than an in-shower mask. Having to let the Olaplex sit for 10 minutes felt like forever, especially when I wasn't taking an everything shower (you know, the ones where you exfoliate and shave). With K18, you let it sit in your hair for four minutes post-shower to activate, and then you can style your hair (or just let it air dry like I do). I've found that my hair is softest the next day, so don't be discouraged if your hair looks or feels the same the day you use it. One last thing: It is pretty pricey, but a little goes a long way. The full-size 50-mL tube lasts me ~four months, and eventually, K18 can become a maintenance product, so you won't need to use it every time you wash your hair."Promising reviews: "This has fixed my hair! My new hairstylist used this on me once before and told me to get some to help fix prior damage from a previous hairstylist, and this has been a life-changer! I started off using it once a week, and now I use it every few weeks." —Mjbaby23"Wow. I have never used a product where I have seen a difference in just one use. It is pretty pricy, but it is so worth it. It left my curls healthy and hydrated. I have 3a curls, divided into three sections, and I used one pump on each section. I love that this brand has light/no fragrance. Curly hair product scents can be very overwhelming and make me nauseous. I would buy this product all over again!" —AnonymousPrice: $29+ (available in two sizes) An Ilia Limitless Lash Lengthening mascara that easily rinses off with warm water so you can rock Rapunzel-like lashes by day and not fear raccoon eyes by night. Plus, it's safe for sensitive eyes and contact wearers, so no worries that your fresh lifted look is going to cause annoying irritation. Promising review: "Perfect for sensitive eyes or dry eyes. It lengthens lashes and plumps! Love." —SunnyHINVPrice: $16+ (available in two sizes and two colors) The ultra-fine Charlotte Tilbury Airbrush Flawless Finish Setting Powder to help keep your makeup in place without annoying caking. Made with rose wax and almond oil, it also helps hydrate the skin. One of these LIVES in my purse to combat unwanted shine, especially in the warmer months. Promising review: "Blurs the skin beautifully and makes my skin look so smooth. Great for setting my eyes as well. Prevents creasing and stays in place all day. This is my go-to pressed powder!" —SunnyD418Price: $28+ (available in three sizes and four shades) A Shiseido eyelash curler if your eyelashes are board-straight and that's making you straight up bored: Add a little flounce to your look with this cult-fave eyelash curler that reviewers say works so well, it makes you look like you applied mascara without wearing any at all! Promising reviews: "Best eyelash curler that helps me look awake without creating any kinks in my eyelashes. Just bought one for my tween, and she loves it! Very gentle on the eyelashes." —Tygrliliee3"This is the best eyelash curler I have ever used, especially if you have almond eyes. One squeeze, and you have your eyelashes up for the whole entire day." —Tita2011Price: $27 Internet-famous Rare Beauty Soft Pinch Liquid Blush for the kind of buildable color that is going to make you pink in the cheeks with Promising review: "I love this blush. I usually go for powder blush, and I was scared to try liquid blush, but I'm amazed with the results. Easy to blend and has a good amount of pigment. Would highly recommend." —gursimran13Price: $15+ (available in 2 sizes, 2 finishes, and in 15 shades) A tube of Clinque's Almost Lipstick in "Black Honey" so you can have that sheer, barely there, glossy look to your lips that is perfect for warmer weather. Plus, it's famously what Liv Tyler wore on the Lord of the Rings set when she played Arwen, so let those elvish vibes roll. Promising review: "This is my go-to lipstick whenever I want a pretty sheer dark cherry lip. I can describe it as biting into a cherry and having residue on your lips. I love it; it's my third time buying it." —jacquelineb25Price: $25 (also available in "Pink Honey") An Urban Decay 24/7 waterproof eyeliner if you are tired of going through the effort of getting the perfect wing only to have it smudge five minutes later. Smudge-no-more with this budge-proof liner that has over 11,000 5-star-reviews. (Shooketh, tbh.) Promising reviews: "Love using the whiskey shade to create a brown shadow liner Smokey eye! Mistakes blend nicely and lasts all night without smudging under my eye. Will repurchase other colors." —smithitten"This is the best eyeliner I have ever used. No fading, no smudging at all. Will be purchasing more shades!" —hmacleodPrice: $23 (available in five finishes and 34 colors) Tower 28 SOS Daily Rescue Facial Spray with antibacterial properties to help shield your skin from harmful bacteria, cut back on redness, and soothe irritation. Throw it in your gym bag to use before your workout and thank yourself later! Some K18 Leave-In Repair Hair Mask Treatment that's highly concentrated so a lil' bottle will last you a while, and you'll be so glad it does, because it's a leave-in treatment instead of one that you have to wash out in the shower. (Passive haircare is the BEST haircare, y'all.) Promising review: "I ADORE THIS PRODUCT! My hair is one of the few things I splurge my money on. As a college student, I need to pick and choose what things are worth spending a pretty penny on, but honestly, with how little product I use of this after every hair wash, it's not even that expensive. Before I started to use this product, I had many noticeable split ends. I like to straighten my hair once a week and wash my hair twice a week. After having used this product for the recommended five consecutive times on the back of the bottle, my hair feels UNREAL. It is silky soft, shines, and I've been receiving compliments on it ever since. Totally recommend it. I already got all the girls in my family to start using it. And no, this isn't sponsored (I wish!)." —Rachael411Price: $29 The Inkey List de-puffing cream giving your under-eyes a little caffeine boost without even having to touch your cup of coffee. (Caffeine helps relieve any water retention you've got stored up!) Plus, it goes on ~smooth~, so if you want to layer some of that Kosas concealer all of TikTok is raving about on top of your eye cream, YOU TOTALLY CAN.

You definitely see a difference within 1–2 weeks of use." —Nena08HrdzPrice: $11 An Urban Decay Naked2 matte eyeshadow palette everyone loves for its long-lasting staying power, the smooth application, and its variety of neutral shades. If you're intimidated by palettes and want to give them a go, this is an EXCELLENT choice for beginners and makeup pros alike. Promising review: "Love this little palette. All shades are velvety, and blend really well. The two middle shades are perfect neutral crease colors. The mirror bends almost all the way back, so I end up using it to do my eyeshadow most days. Will definitely buy again." —SnarlyCarlyPrice: $35 A Dae Cactus Fruit 3-in-1 Styling Cream because flyaways simply need to ~fly away~ and leave our fabulous hair twists alone, thanks. This comes with a built-in mascara-like wand to help style and slick your hair into absolute perfection.

Use on its own or mix in with your fave moisturizer for that post-beach-vacay look. Promising review: "Babes, honestly buy it. Love the bronze look, and it blends perfectly with a moisturizer. Also, if you're debating over the price, it's worth it. Mine has lasted over a year I still have product left. Like, it's shocking me!" —LadyLondon4Price: $39 The beloved Laneige Cream Skin toner and moisturizer. One full jar of moisturizer and one full bottle of toner in one glorious package? Yes, please. Whether you're looking to elevate your routine or simplify it, Laneige has designed the ideal addition to your cart. The perfect little treat, just because you've earned it.

SPF 40 Glowscreen because the #1 rule of skincare is that you MUST. USE. SUNSCREEN. Use this lightweight, no-cast formula to protect your skin and your looks, because it doubles as a primer. A Briogeo exfoliating scalp scrub shampoo that is basically a cauldron of awesome for tackling dandruff. Made with charcoal, coconut oil, and micro-exfoliants, this can help scrub your scalp squeaky clean and nourish your hair. Reviewers call this their miracle product, so maybe do yourself the favor of getting the value size for your cabinet now. Promising reviews: "This is literally one of the best products I have used!!

Just ordered full size." —traceymichelle"This is my absolute favorite face cream. Always so hydrating and actually absorbs into my skin. Feels like a dream while applying to my face." —Louloulane07Price: $30+ (available in five sizes) A Jo Malone London wood sage and sea salt cologne I was influenced to buy (you guessed it) on TikTok.

I am so picky with perfumes and usually don't agree with the popular ones, but this one deserves all the attention! So glad there's finally an attractive fresh scent without the fruity or floral aspect." —Shay100"Love this scent — I'm someone who likes to smell good/use a fragrance before bed and after the shower, even if I'm not going anywhere. THIS scent is best on your skin after a warm shower — its mineral and fresh notes are therapeutic and calming." —kyleangelPrice: $32+ (available in four sizes)

Best results I've seen in a sheet/face mask next to SK-II mask." —MegBecker"I'm absolutely obsessed with these masks! I think they are the only masks I've used that have a very noticeable impact on my skin. I use the collagen mask once a week at night and wake up with visibly plump, silky skin. Can't recommend enough, and yes, it's absolutely worth the price!" —DGrigorievnaPrice: $16 (available in other masks, including a brightening and a firming formula) A tub of Kiehl's Ultra Facial Cream so you can have rich moisture without the breakouts. Especially effective against redness and for folks with sensitive skin, Kiehl's has been around forever (1851, to be exact) and upping its game for YEARS.

Simply shampoo like normal and skip the conditioning, because this tiny tube packs a BIG punch and can help you all on its own post-dry-off. BuzzFeed editor Melanie Aman swears by this stuff:"I bleach my dark brown-black Asian hair blonde every six to eight weeks, so I was immediately intrigued when I first heard some stylists at my salon raving about K18. And it turns out the rest of the world loves it, too, because it was sold out at Sephora the first time I tried to buy it. I eventually snagged a bottle and was gobsmacked at how much softer my hair was. Seriously. I spent the whole day touching my hair, and even my boyfriend agreed that my mane was noticeably was my go-to before I tried K18, and I still stand by it as a product, but I really love that K18 is a leave-in treatment rather than an in-shower mask. Having to let the Olaplex sit for 10 minutes felt like forever, especially when I wasn't taking an everything shower (you know, the ones where you exfoliate and shave). With K18, you let it sit in your hair for four minutes post-shower to activate, and then you can style your hair (or just let it air dry like I do). I've found that my hair is softest the next day, so don't be discouraged if your hair looks or feels the same the day you use it. One last thing: It is pretty pricey, but a little goes a long way. The full-size 50-mL tube lasts me ~four months, and eventually, K18 can become a maintenance product, so you won't need to use it every time you wash your hair."Promising reviews: "This has fixed my hair! My new hairstylist used this on me once before and told me to get some to help fix prior damage from a previous hairstylist, and this has been a life-changer! I started off using it once a week, and now I use it every few weeks." —Mjbaby23"Wow. I have never used a product where I have seen a difference in just one use. It is pretty pricy, but it is so worth it. It left my curls healthy and hydrated. I have 3a curls, divided into three sections, and I used one pump on each section. I love that this brand has light/no fragrance. Curly hair product scents can be very overwhelming and make me nauseous. I would buy this product all over again!" —AnonymousPrice: $29+ (available in two sizes) An Ilia Limitless Lash Lengthening clean mascara that removes easily with warm water so you can rock Rapunzel-like lashes by day and not fear raccoon eyes by night.
