THIS IS THE EXACT NUDE LIPSTICK JENNA ORTEGA WEARS IN WEDNESDAY

Forget product placement, Gen Z craves authenticity. That’s why “What’s in My Bag” videos have transcended mere product showcases, evolving into intimate windows into the minds and souls of our favorite stars. Jenna Ortega’s latest offering is a prime example. It’s not just a lipstick inventory; it’s a glimpse into her beauty rituals, wellness hacks, and the ever-evolving journey of navigating mental health.

Ortega peels back the curtain, revealing not just the contents of her handbag, but the philosophies and practices that shape her inner world. It becomes a conversation, an invitation for fans to connect beyond the glossy veneer of celebrity and see the human being underneath.

So, ditch the shopping lists and embrace the deeper conversation. “What’s in My Bag” videos, at their best, are not about empty trends or fleeting fads. They’re about the human experience, shared vulnerably and authentically, reminding us that beneath the glitz and glam, we’re all just navigating our own paths, one lipstick swatch and mindfulness mantra at a time.

On November 28, Harper’s Bazaar U.K. posted an “What’s Inside My Beauty Bag” video featuring the Wednesday star. Of course, we watched the whole thing and found her favorite makeup product to be the most intriguing.

One of her most-used products is her favorite lipstick, the Dior Rouge Dior Forever lipstick ($45) in the shade Forever Nude Touch. In fact, she uses this one so much that the stick itself has become nothing more than a “nub” of pigment. She says she loves it since it’s a “very natural shade, very nude” that she will wear sheer but will also “build it up.” Not only is this lipstick color a hit, but her Wednesday Addams bangs in the Adidas promotional video are also causing a stir on social media.

Ortega says the lipstick, in combination with her favorite eyelash curler—Shiseido Eyelash Curler ($24)—is all she needs to use if she wants to feel presentable without doing a full face.

Another one of her most used products is the Elizabeth Arden Eight Hour Cream Skin Protectant ($29). For two years, this single tube of multi-tasking cream has been her constant companion, a silent witness to Wednesday’s chilling adventures and the upcoming Beetlejuice 2. Introduced by her makeup artist on set, it became a daily ritual, a shared secret between them. The thick formula acted as a buffer, protecting her lips from the dark lipstick that defined her Wednesday persona. But its magic extended beyond the screen. Ortega discovered its power to soothe and heal. “I used to have a bit of a picking problem,” she confesses, “and I feel like that’s really helped.” This humble cream, tucked away in her bag, became a silent ally in her journey towards self-care.

The product she’s had the longest is one she picked up on one of her first acting jobs. She says she saw everyone in L.A. using the Mason Pearson Pocket Bristle & Nylon Hairbrushes ($43) and couldn’t stop talking about how it was the “cool” brush to use on set. Her first hair and makeup team gave her one of the brushes as a gift when the show finished filming.

Other than beauty products, she carries a journal to practice being present and mindfulness, as well as to jot down her dreams. She says that since writing down her R.E.M. visuals, her dreams have become so much more interesting, plus they have provided inspiration for her future directorial debut.

JENNA ORTEGA HAS WEDNESDAY ADDAMS BANGS IN NEW PROMOTIONAL VIDEO FOR ADIDAS

Jenna Ortega’s Wednesday Addams stole our hearts with deadpan humor and a penchant for all things dark. And while we scream for season two’s promised “torture” (Netflix confirmed it on January 6th!), the SAG and WAG strike threatens to keep us waiting until at least 2024. But fear not, fellow Addams enthusiasts! Ortega keeps the spirit alive, not just with her upcoming Beetlejuice 2 role, but with her killer new bangs: a Wednesday-worthy tribute that channels the iconic character’s rebellious spirit.

These dark, choppy bangs are more than just a hairstyle; they’re a declaration of allegiance to the Addams family’s macabre charm. They’re a wink to Wednesday’s sharp wit and a defiant middle finger to conformity. Ortega rocks them with the same confidence her character exudes, reminding us that Wednesday’s legacy isn’t confined to the screen.

So, while we patiently wait for season two, let Ortega’s bangs be our daily dose of Wednesday Addams. They’re a reminder to embrace our inner oddball, to rock our own unique style, and to never shy away from a little bit of “torture” (figuratively speaking, of course). Until then, we’ll be channeling our inner Wednesday with every flick of our bangs!

Ortega shared he latest Adidas campaign video, where she breaks the fourth wall to “tune into a game” while wearing an all-white sweatsuit with a black Adidas logo. Ortega’s stylist Enrique Melendez paired the look with white Adidas sneakers, delicate gold rings, and a stack of thin gold chain necklaces. In this video, she proceeds to apply her favorite nude lipstick shade – the one her fans have been searching high and low for.

Ortega’s bright athleisure outfit is a far cry from the all-black goth-y pieces she wears in Wednesday—but her hair was fully Wednesday Addams. Celebrity hairstylist Jenny Cho created an ultra-sleek lob with a slight inward swoop, plus full Birkin bangs (or Wednesday bangs?) that end around her brows towards the middle and then taper out to her cheekbones as they reach the ends.

Forget bold statements, Jenna Ortega embraced a softer side for her recent look. Her manicurist, Thuy Nguyen, crafted short, chic square nails, opting for a bare-naked polish that let the natural beauty shine through. This minimalism extended to her makeup, where celebrity artist Mélanie Inglessis conjured a subtle strawberry glow.

Inglessis mimicked the sun-kissed blush of a ripe berry with a touch of pink on Ortega’s cheeks and nose, letting her freckles peek through for an authentically sun-kissed look. Groomed brows and a touch of highlighter accentuated her natural features, while a juicy tinted lip completed the fresh-faced vibe.

This departure from dramatic statements is refreshing, showcasing Ortega’s effortless charm. It’s a reminder that sometimes, the most captivating beauty lies in embracing natural radiance, allowing freckles and a touch of color to whisper their own unique story.
