Miranda Kerr‘s organic skincare line isn’t the only secret behind her signature glow — it’s also motherhood.
Just three months ago, the Australian-born model and entrepreneur, 36, became a mom of three when she welcomed son Myles with her husband, Snapchat CEO Evan Spiegel. And she’s loving every second.
“My heart is just so full of joy and happiness,” Kerr told PEOPLE at the launch of her Kora Organics‘ new Noni Night AHA Resurfacing Serum at SmogShoppe in Los Angeles on Thursday night. “It’s definitely busy. No day’s ever the same. But we love it. I couldn’t be happier, and I feel very grateful and very blessed to have three healthy boys and a wonderful husband.”
Along with Myles, Kerr also shares 20-month-old son Hart with Spiegel, 29, and 9-year-old son Flynn with her ex, Orlando Bloom. Before welcoming Hart and Myles, Kerr said Flynn wanted nothing more than to have a little brother.
“A long time ago, he said to me, ‘I want a brother,’ ” the model recalled. “Then I said, ‘Well, Evan and I are going to get married first.’ And then he comes running in the day we got married and he was like, ‘Do I have a brother?!’ And I’m like, ‘Not yet!’ “

While raising three boys and managing a business can get hectic at times, Kerr said she manages by planning as much as she can in advance.
“I went to a business conference many, many years ago in Australia and this woman was talking about how planning, and even mapping out things months in advance, was one of the keys to her success,” she said. “That really made an impact on me, and it’s something that I’ve incorporated into my life.”
“And if I hadn’t, it would be a lot more chaotic,” Kerr continued. “Obviously you have to be flexible, things change. But if you can plan things in advance — like business meetings around the babies’ nap schedules — it’s much more manageable.”
“Time management is something that I feel strongly about,” she added. “It’s something I feel like I’m constantly working on because time is precious, and I want to be there for my children and my husband as much as possible. But I also have a business that I’m running, and I feel that it’s important to also take time.”

Kerr said she tries to fit exercise into her schedule while doing other things, like when going on walks with her husband and children or when “turning the music on and dancing with the kids.”
“It’s like I’m secretly doing the plank,” she said with a laugh. “You make it work. Then at nighttime, I like to give the two little ones a bath and I light my candle — I clear the air with Palo Santo and I have my little ritual. The lights go down dim. And we have a nice, relaxing sea salt bath. It’s relaxing for them, it’s relaxing for me and they’re in bed by 6:30 and then I have more time with my husband.”
On top of everything, breastfeeding has proven to be an added challenge for Kerr when it comes to planning her schedule, she told PEOPLE.
“You definitely have to plan,” she said. “So like right before [this] event, I made sure that I pumped because my house is far away from here. So I pumped right before, and then I’ve got to pump any minute. It’s every three hours. Then when I’m with him, I have to pump between sometimes one and a half hours to two hours. But at least I always have extra milk at home.”
For Kerr, Kora Organics has been like a fourth baby, and she even introduced it as her “baby girl” while welcoming guests to her launch event. Kerr said that about two years ago, she first got the idea to create the new Noni Night Serum, which is an organic night treatment serum that uses natural AHAs, BHA and ferments to resurface skin and increase cellular turnover.
“I feel so blessed because our organic chemists are amazing at what they do so I come up with these ideas and then I say, ‘How can we do this to make sure it works really well synergistically with the other products in the line?’ ” she said. “It’s like a layering process, and they’re the formulators. I have the concept, and they put it all together and they send it to me and I try and test the product.”
Kerr told PEOPLE she incorporates the night serum into her daily routine, which is done in five simple steps: “Cleanse, mist, serum, moisturize, oil.” At night, she also likes to add a sleeping mask.
“They’re simple steps, and they really help,” said Kerr, who added that her routine has evolved over the years. “Now I’m incorporating the [Noni Bright] Vitamin C Serum in the morning, and this night serum at night. I feel that’s a really great combination for pigmentation, which is something I feel like I’m constantly aware of because I have three babies. I feel like I’m constantly fighting the pigmentation.”

“I want something natural that’s really going to work,” she continued. “We’re certified by Ecocert, which is like the leading certification for organics. We’re the only certified organic brand in Sephora so we’re not just clean beauty — we are so much more than clean beauty. And what that means to me is that the products are so much more powerful because they’re not just clean. They’re super powerful because they are organic, which means they have more antioxidants, which means they have better results.”
Throughout her last pregnancy, Kerr said she used all of her Kora Organics products on her body.
“I use the body lotion, the body wash and the body oil to help combat stretch marks,” she said. “It really helped maintain the elasticity of my skin.”
“I used all my products throughout my pregnancy for the last three of them,” Kerr added. “I started Kora before my first child was born, and I’ve used all the body products on my children as well since the day they were born — the body lotion, body wash, body oil.”

Kerr also said that husband Spiegel has even been using her products lately.
“My husband uses the face scrub, he uses the face oil and I’ve even put the night serum on him,” she said. “And it really helps his skin!”
While Kora Organics makes four babies for Kerr, she said she’s open to the possibly of having more children.
“I love kids, and I feel so blessed to have three healthy ones,” she said. “I love being a mother of three boys. But I don’t know. I’m definitely loving where we’re at right now with the three of them. And I’m not sure if we will or won’t. I more so know that my husband definitely, probably, wants more, but I’m open.”
