She is Australia’s most successful supermodels, and despite recently celebrating her 42nd birthday Miranda Kerr has barely aged a day since she walked the Victoria’s Secret runway.
The Kora Organics founder often credits her own skincare line as the secret to her perpetually youthful glow, but in a new chat with ELLE magazine divulged her favourite daily beauty ritual.
‘A beauty routine I swear by is dry body brushing,’ Miranda said in a video shared on Thursday.
‘I just love the way it boosts circulation. It is something that I do every morning before I get in the shower and I just feel really good.’
Dry body brushing is a technique where a dry, bristle brush is used to exfoliate and massage the skin to help boost circulation and stimulate the lymphatic system.
It’s a form of self-care often associated with Ayurveda – a traditional Indian system of medicine.

‘Dry brushing is sometimes associated with improving skin texture, reducing the appearance of cellulite, and even supporting detoxification, although scientific evidence for some of these claims is limited’, Healthline says on its website.
Using a brush with coarse, natural fibre bristles in a circular motion is believed to help improve blood flow and improve the skin’s ability to eliminate toxins through the pores by exfoliating the dead skin cells.
This makes it easier for the body to sweat, which in turn reduces the amount of toxins flowing through the lymphatic system.

Fans of the beauty ritual believe the process may also support collagen production and reduce the appearance of cellulite.
There is little scientific evidence to support these claims, but dry brushing is unlikely to cause harm to most people.
To dry body brush, Miranda uses long sweeping motions in the direction of her heart, working upwards from her feet.
She uses circular motions on sensitive areas like the tummy and armpits and when she is finished, ends with a shower and moisturises her whole body.
‘I feel it’s because I use powerful and effective organic skincare,’ Miranda continued in her video.
‘Certified organic ingredients contain up to 60 per cent more antioxidants and no nasty chemicals.’

On a more personal note, the model opened up about the reason she became so passionate about skincare in the first place.
She said she created her Kora Organics line after her mother Theresa Kerr suffered a scary health issue.
‘My mum was diagnosed with tumours in her spleen, so as family, we had to research what goes in and on our bodies,’ Miranda said.
‘And what we learned is that what you put on your skin soaks in.’
