One of the classic items in Moroccan cosmetics is the Aker Fassi, or Berber lipstick.

This Berber lipstick gives your lips a touch of healthy, natural color that lasts for a very long period, as well as beauty and sensuality effects.

clay disk, like a sort of bowl, with an entirely crimson interior. The pigment is a powder made from dried poppy petals that can be used with terracotta if it is slightly damp. To apply the color to the lips, simply dip a moist fingertip or brush into the Aker Fassi bowl. The bowl is once more dry and prepared to be placed in the bag without any chance of stains in less than a minute.

Amazingly, Aker Fassi provides the lips a color that ranges from a brick orange to a carmine red depending on the amount applied. It is a strong but completely natural red that carries with it all the earth's tones. It is advised to add a drop of almond oil (or Argan, to stick with the Moroccan theme) to the mouth after using it because it has a tendency to somewhat dry the lips.
