Does Applying Cream invalidate wudu?
Question: 21791
Summary of answer
Applying cream on the face does not break wudu nor does it break the fast.
Answer
Praise be to Allah, and peace and blessings be upon the Messenger of Allah and his family.
For a woman to use cream on her face does not break wudu, neither does it break one’s fast. Similarly, using lipstick does not break one’s wudu or one’s fast . When one is fasting and these cosmetics have any flavor, they should not be used in any way that may lead to the flavour reaching the throat.
And Allah knows best.
