Fatwa #104429 September 2000Pakistan

Can a Muslim wife adorn herself with lipstick, if it is worn only in front of the husband? Can other mahrams see her with Lipstick? Is the use of lipstick considered as imitating the Kufaar?

Answer

It is permissible for a female to adorn herself with lipstick only for her
husband. The lipstick should have no impure ingredients in it and should not
serve as a paste which prevents water from penetrating through it as that
will render the Wudhu invalid.
