A Centuries-Old Clean Beauty Cosmetic

Long before commercial lipsticks existed, Moroccan women created this iconic cosmetic. Poppy petals are harvested in the spring and dried naturally under the Mediterranean sun before being pulverized with dried pomegranate bark.

Beyond its stunning cosmetic color, poppy flower extract possesses remarkable calming and moisturizing properties, while pomegranate tannins act as a natural astringent and antioxidant, defending lips and skin against free-radical damage.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do you detect fake or counterfeit Aker Fassi on the market?

Fake Aker Fassi is typically made of dyed red brick dust or synthetic industrial dyes. Genuine Aker Fassi has an iridescent golden-bronze sheen when dry, turns instantly ruby-red upon contact with moisture, and smells faintly of dried flowers and pomegranate.

Does Aker Fassi stain clothing permanently?

Because it is a natural water-soluble botanical anthocyanin pigment, it washes out of fabrics much easier than synthetic dyes, though care should still be taken during application.

Can we order traditional Moroccan terracotta pots (Bellas)?

Yes, we supply traditional clay pots baked with pure Aker Fassi pigment directly on the clay surface, which activates whenever touched with a damp brush or finger.
