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.

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Darul Iftaa Mahmudiyyah (AskImam). It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
