Miranda Kerr “Kora” Organic Skincare: Is It Cruelty-Free?
Written by Vegetarian Star on October 7th, 2009 in Cosmetics And Beauty Products, Models.
Miranda Kerr has launched a line of 100% organic skin care products.
The range, Kora, is named after a type of meditation in the Tibetan Buddhist tradition. It is currently only available in the Australian department store David Jones, where Miranda is the Brand Ambassador.
Organic ingredients are exciting, but has Miranda run the entire ethical gamut and ensured her products are animal free with none of the ingredients being tested on animals?
Earlier this year, Miranda helped launch Victoria Secret’s PINK-a collection of animal-friendly vegan products with natural ingredients like soy milk.
We hope Miranda’s own launch is just as cruelty-free.

What you can do is save yourself a ton of money and simply buy a jar of organic extra-virgin coconut oil. I use this on my skin, hair and body and it works wonders. A jar will set you back only $8 and will last you well over a year!

I received an email from Tammy at KORA today confirming the products are vegan. No ingredients were derived from animals and the products have not been tested on animals. This is really exciting because it means I can actually buy them!

I have acne-prone skin so someone recommended I try Kora because it was Ecocert organic, so I tried the Exfoliating Cream and Purifying Day and Night Cream. I’m sorry to say that the condition of my skin actually worsened after using them…in addition of not helping to control the acne, my skin became really dry, itchy and blotchy. I wrote on the Kora blog asking about it and was told it could be my “hormones” acting up and perhaps I should change to another Kora product. That in itself tells me that the people who sells these products don’t actually care for the clients at all, just how much they can make off guillible people.
I have since wrote back and stated that I would like to return the products and get a refund, and have been totally ignored.
Well, I wrote to Ecocert asking them about Kora Organics’ claims to be Ecocert certified organic and have been informed that of all the range, only the Balancing Rose Mist and Energising Citrus Mist are actually certified organic by them…NOT ANY OF THE OTHERS. I think it is very shameful of Ms Kerr to fraudulently claim her products as Ecocert certified organic when they’re not. I’m now back to using doctor-prescribed skincare products.
