I tried Kris Jenner’s bizarre morning routine – I was exhausted but I understand how the Kardashians are so successful

KRIS Jenner has revealed that she wakes up at 4:30am every morning and is in full glam before she starts her meetings at 9:30am.

I decided to give the unusual routine a try to see if it would improve my daily life.

Kourtney Kardashian re-posted Kris Jenner’s bizarre schedule, which was originally posted to Poosh’s Instagram story.

After waking up at 4:30am, Jenner stops for coffee at 5am, checks her emails at 5.30am, hits the treadmill while checking the news by 6am, showers by 7am, and gets fully glam around 8am to be ready for her 9:30 AM meetings.

I designated two days to live like Jenner to give it a fair shot, as I knew the first day would be especially difficult.

DAY ONE

My alarm blared at 4:30am, which made me immediately want to hit snooze, however, I dragged myself out of bed and turned on the lights as it was still quite dark outside.

After washing my face with ice-cold water in a desperate attempt to feel more awake, I quickly realized that this was not going to be an easy day for me.

By 5am, I poured myself some cold brew in a Kris Jenner-style glass to really set the mood. Usually, caffeinated beverages do the trick for me, but I still felt very sluggish.

I hit the gym by 6am, which was an upside to my usual evening workout. It was great to have my workout completed first thing in the morning.

I hit the shower at 7am, which gave me another jolt of energy as I opted for a cold shower to keep myself awake.

Getting glam by 8am was a fun challenge. On one hand, I felt my eyes were a bit tired due to the schedule change, but I enjoyed trying out Kris Jenner-style makeup including a dramatic black smokey eye, which I wore all day long.

My typical morning meetings are around 9:30am, but by that hour, I began feeling exhausted, causing me to reach for another caffeinated beverage so that I could participate meaningfully and without too much brain fog.

The idea of falling asleep like a baby kept me going throughout the day, but when I finally hit the sack I found myself unable to fall asleep earlier than my normal bedtime of around midnight.

DAY TWO

I woke up, still dreading the sound of my alarm, but the words of Kim Kardashian, it was time to “get the f**k up and work.”

I resumed the early bird routine and found it slightly easier on the second day.

I developed a new attitude when visiting the gym, enjoying how quiet it was and the availability of equipment at that hour.

I opted for a cold shower again — hoping for similar effects as ice baths — but still felt somewhat lethargic.

For glam, I opted for a more sleek black ensemble paired with giant statement hoop earrings — a hallmark Kardashian-Jenner look.

A welcomed benefit of waking up so early was that I had more time in the day to get more things done.

Since I had all the necessary tasks out of the way before 9:30am, I was able to catch up with friends and family, make appointments, and even take a moment to breathe, meditate, and relax.

By 12:30, I was able to make a manicure appointment having most of my other daily tasks behind me.

I headed over to LAV Nailcare in midtown Manhattan and treated myself to red stiletto nails — a manicure style that is very popular with Kris Jenner’s daughters Khloe and Kylie.

I spent the rest of my weekend catching up with loved ones and simply exploring the city on my own accord.

By nighttime, I found myself in bed and asleep by 10:30 — a bit earlier than my usual bedtime.

FINAL VERDICT

Waking up earlier than my usual 6am was shockingly difficult. Something about that extra hour-and-a-half of sleep makes a huge difference in my mental dexterity.

However, although I felt off in a way that was similar to jet lag, the number of tasks I completed in a day rose tremendously.

I now completely understand how Kris has momaged Kim and Kylie to billionaire-dom.

A loved one told me that I seemed to be in less of a rush than I usually am by day two, which I attributed to completing most of my non-negotiable tasks by 9:30am.

I felt that I could benefit by waking up a bit earlier in general, but not sure if I am ready to make it my forever routine — I guess I’d have to sleep on it.
