Photo: Jenna Ortega on importance of drafting ‘very clear’ creative aesthetic of her characters

Jenna Ortega is reportedly an advocate for inner beauty.

In a resurfaced interview from last year ahead of Wednesday season 2 second part’s releases, the actress had a candid chat with Who What Wear while sharing tips and tricks to look pretty.

“Beauty is the way that you’re choosing to represent yourself. It’s a pretty important piece of the puzzle,” she began.

Highlighting the importance of hairstyling and make-up for her roles in movies, the Scream actress shared, “Often with characters, it’s one of my favourite parts of the job, speaking with the hair and makeup artist and establishing what the look is going to be, because it’s the character getting herself ready every day.”

“It’s very interesting and insightful to know what is important to them and what they want to be seen as, so often, when I get ready for these characters, I play around with the makeup myself, and then we go from there, just so I have the experience of putting it on and figuring out what’s natural to me,” Ortega continued.

Meanwhile, the Hollywood actress detailed her look for her famous on-screen character Wednesday Addams.

“But it also kind of naturally lends itself, sometimes, if you don’t know who the character is fully, and you try something on, they’ll tell you what they want or they don’t want,” she told the outlet.

“For example, [when playing] Wednesday Addams, it was very clear when something wasn’t pale enough or dark enough or grey enough; it’s very intuitive,” Jenna Ortega concluded.
