A bold red lip is often associated with powerful and confident women, but thanks to The Dropout, rouge has a scandalous new meaning.

In addition to green juices and black turtlenecks, Theranos founder Elizabeth Holmes was known for her signature red lipstick among other things. To achieve the scandalous pout, The Dropout's head makeup artist Jorjee Douglas used Lancôme's Rouge Drama Ink Lipstick in shades "French Touch" and "French Bisou" on Amanda Seyfried, who plays the disgraced founder in the new hit Hulu series. 

Not only was the color combination and intentional ragged application of the liquid lipstick brilliant for depicting Holmes onscreen, but the non-drying, semi-matte, ultra-pigmented lipstick required little upkeep on set and didn't smudge when Seyfried had to wear a mask. We don't know about you, but keeping lipstick intact while repping a mask is a true art form.
