When you’re treated to three minutes with one of the fashion industry’s most in-demand talents, you have to make the most of it. And that’s just what we did with Estée Lauder’s stunning new Global Brand Ambassador, Adut Akech: a rapid-fire quiz round to understand everything from her desert island must-haves to the profession she’d choose if not for modeling.

Beyond blazing a new trail on fashion runways and lending her signature serve to print editorials, Adut backs up her style with substance, working with the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) to promote causes that support refugees around the world. Adut spent her early childhood as a refugee in South Sudan, and hopes that her own story can serve as inspiration for many to become more invested in alleviating the plight of refugees.

Watch her video now to learn even more about Adut and the one product she can’t seem to
get enough of.
