The Ruling on Using Makeup While in Ihram

Question:
Honorable Shaykh, a woman says: I performed Hajj with a group in one of the previous years, and the women were in a place reserved for them. I had applied adornment and makeup to my face, knowing that it did not contain clay. One of the female callers to Islam rebuked me, stating that applying it while in the state of ihram is not permissible. Is this correct? Knowing that when we are taken to the men's gathering, we cover our faces completely?

Answer:
No, we do not mean money; what is forbidden is perfume. The woman in ihram does not touch perfume, neither the woman in ihram nor the man in ihram; one does not touch perfume, and one does not apply perfume while in ihram. As long as these dyes do not contain perfume, there is no harm in using them, on the condition that she veils herself when she goes out to the men, and does not display her adornment or her dyes. She must veil herself and cover her body, and ihram is not invalidated by the issue of dyes and powders that do not contain perfume. Yes.
