Miranda Kerr’s stunning Met Gala glow was thanks to a lightweight, innovative serum-foundation hybrid.
Her makeup artist used the best-selling Ilia Beauty Super Serum Skin Tint SPF 40 Foundation.
The serum has rave reviews and contains skin-loving ingredients like squalene, hyaluronic acid, and niacinamide.
The chaos that is the Met Gala is enough to give anyone a sweat-induced natural glow. But Miranda Kerr’s red carpet luminosity was seriously next level this year. Not only that, her face makeup was completely undetectable—it looked that natural—and that was thanks to a best-selling formula beloved for its barely-there finish, medium coverage, and natural shine. The magical product in question? Ilia Beauty’s Super Serum Skin Tint SPF 40 Foundation.
The perfect pairing with her all-white ball gown, Miranda’s makeup look was a twist on classic Hollywood glamour—understated eyes and a bold red lip—which called for the skin to shine in a way that didn’t look heavy or cakey. Ilia’s Super Serum was a perfect candidate, per InStyle, because it’s lightweight texture melts easily into the skin, and it contains powerhouse skincare ingredients like squalene to moisturize, hyaluronic acid to hydrate, and niacinamide to smooth—leaving the complexion suppler and brighter.
The skincare-makeup combo has become quite the fan-favorite since its release, garnering over 280,000 “loves” on Sephora’s website. “My skin has never looked so beautiful & glowy. I have dry skin & this just adds so much life & radiance to my face. I’m never going back. It’s BEAUTIFUL,” one reviewer writes.
“Looks beautiful on my 41-year-old skin,” another reviewer adds. “I didn’t think I’d like a serum skin tint, but boy was I wrong! It’s VERY dewy, but it blurs imperfections and makes my skin look healthy and glowing,” another raves.
Makeup artist Ericka Verrett was responsible for creating Kerr’s timeless look, which was beautifully complemented by a low chignon bun. To add extra coverage where needed, she concealed specific spots with Ilia’s True Skin Serum Concealer with Vitamin C and then added the brand’s cream blush. For eyes, she used The Necessary Eyeshadow Palette, the Clean Line Gel Liner, and the Fullest Volumizing Mascara. And of course, the look wouldn’t be complete without the Color Block High Impact Lipstick.
Whether you’re attending a world-famous gala or are simply going out for date night, it’s a look worth keeping in your back pocket when you want to look naturally fresh with a bit of glam.
