Lily Kwong. Outside of Manhattan, you may not recognize her by name, and that’s okay—for the moment. The laid-back and fresh-faced Kwong, who happens to be the cousin of CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund award-winning fashion designer-of-the-moment Joseph Altuzarra, is just graduating from Columbia University with a degree in sociology and urban studies, after all. No surprise, in a matter of moments after coming onto the New York social scene, Vogue anointed the dark-haired beauty an It girl. Now she’s a front row fixture at fashion shows and frequently appears in party photos (recently for attending the Dom Pérignon party for artist Rita Ackermann and French composer Koudlam, the American Beauty book party, and Marchesa’s dinner at the Rose Bar).

My beauty routine! I was such a tomboy—I don’t think a dress was in my wardrobe until I was like seventeen or eighteen. So, I kind of missed that whole boat on the sleepovers and experimenting with makeup and putting nail polish on. My mom was really cool; she never tried to push me to be anything that I wasn’t. So I feel like I’ve learned my beauty stuff since I started modeling, kind of. I’ll pick up tips from makeup artists and it’s all random scraps of information that I’ve accumulated. I just wash my face with that Go Clear Cleanser that’s from Sephora. And then I’ve been using Lubriderm since I was a kid. I use it on my face. I don’t know if that’s bad, but I do it.
