Vintage with a twist was the inspiration behind the makeup Orange Is the New Black [1]'s actress Jackie Cruz, who plays Flaca Gonzales, wore to the Women's Prison Association season three premiere [2] of the Netflix show. "I wanted to give Jackie a classic and timeless look with a flawless base and flush of color on the cheeks," says makeup artist Maria Ortega, who used Chantecaille products to get Jackie red-carpet ready. "The goal was to accentuate her lips and give her them a retro pop of color — not exactly a matte red, but a slightly softer firey color."

To create the look, Ortega started by mixing Chantecaille Liquid Lumière in Briliance [3] ($39) with Future Skin Foundation in Cream [4] ($75), and then applying the mixture, starting from the center of the face, working her way out with a Beauty Blender [5] sponge ($20). Next, she concealed Jackie's under-eyes using Le Camouflage Stylo in 4W [6] ($49). To give Jackie's skin a glowy finish, she dabbed a bit of Liquid Lumière in Sheen [7] ($39) on the star's temples, cheekbones, brow bones, Cupid's bow, and down the bridge of her nose. The next step was contouring her cheekbones by using a fluffy brush to dust HD Perfecting Powder in Bronze [8] ($74) on the hollows of her cheeks, jawline, and around her hairline, and then applying Powder Blush in Laughter [9] ($26) on her cheeks.

For the eyes, Ortega dusted Lasting Eye Shade in Sesame [10] ($26) all over the lid. Next, she applied Lasting Eye Shade in Shale [11] ($26) just to the crease, and blended Lasting Eye Shade in Patchouli [12] from the outer edge of her eyes and up to the crease. To brighten Jackie's eyes, she applied Lasting Eye Shade in Lantern [13] ($26), a warm golden-brown shadow, near her tear ducts. Ortega finished Jackie's eye makeup using Le Stylo Ultra Slim [14] liquid eyeliner in Black ($34) to create a kitten eye. For the poppy mouth, Ortega filled Jackie's lips with Lip Definer in Energy [15] ($24), and topped that first coat with Lip Chic in Amaryllis [16] ($36) for long-lasting power.
