When it comes to lipstick, the two most important factors are the color and how long it lasts. Many of us spend countless hours and resources searching for the perfect lipstick that complements our skin tone and withstands the demands of an all-day, all-night assessment. Unfortunately, most lipsticks fail to meet both challenges.
But what if there was a lipstick that not only lasted all day but also guaranteed a perfect, natural pink shade every time? It sounds too good to be true, right? Wrong. This article delves into the world of Moroccan lip stains, exploring their unique properties and long-lasting effects.
Henna Lipstick and Magic Moroccan Hare Color Changing Lipstick
The product in question goes by many names, but is most commonly referred to as Henna Lipstick or Magic Moroccan Hare Color Changing Lipstick. For starters, there is no hard-hitting proof that there is any actual henna in this lipstick.
While there is an elusive product type only available in Morocco (some secrets you just can't get to) that could possibly contain the flower dye, the options available for purchase most likely retain the moniker as a nod to the long-wearing color. They are actually more similar to mood lipsticks of the '80s and contain Red 27, a synthetic dye that reacts to the pH of your lips and accounts for the variation of color from person to person.
Furthermore, many henna lipsticks are made with argan oil, or "liquid gold." Basically, you've got yourself a custom, moisturizing color without emptying your pockets.

The Experience
After a few swipes, the color began showing clearly. The pink was a bit brighter than expected (mostly because I NEVER wear pink lipstick), but it was still very natural. I see it as part of the whole no-makeup makeup ordeal. I slightly reapplied after lunch to even out the color but by evening, my lips were still pink. I had to break out the makeup remover to get it all off at night. The moral of this story: don't use the magic lipstick wand on days you're planning to wear lipstick for a night out-because that rosy color is a 24-hour commitment.

How to Apply Aker Fassi
Tired of blushes that fade within minutes? Here's how to use Aker Fassi:
- Lip: Soak a brush (or finger) in water or oil, rub it lightly on the terra cotta and apply to the lips.
- Less Intensity: The pigment can be controlled by adding more water/oil.
- Argan Oil: Skin care and makeup in one? Add 1 drop of InayaMorocco Pure Argan Oil to your brush/ finger instead of water for endless skin benefits.
Do not apply water/oil directly to the Aker Fassi.
