Aker El Fassi is a completely natural cosmetic made ​​from poppy and pomegranate extract that has been traditionally used by Berber women to makeup lips and blush.
In Morocco you can easily find the Aker El Fassi as lid made of clay, like the lid of a tajine. You can use it very easily: just wet your finger with saliva and wipe the clay lid, which is impregnated with a red dye,  then apply it to your blush and lips and voila, you are already makeup. The red colour of your finger disappears with a little water.

You know that the poppy has an emollient effect and pomegranate is rich in antioxidants, potassium, calcium, magnesium, iron, manganese, copper, zinc and vitamins C, B ​​and E. The Aker El Fassi powder  should not be applied directly to the skin because it is highly concentrated. Just mix half a teaspoon of powder with an oil or cream and apply it to your face, the body, including hair. I've tried it with Argan oil and I can say that the skin becomes smoother. Do not worry about the red tint because it leaves no traces on the skin. It may also be mixed with a little honey as lip gloss. Mixed with henna is a good hair conditioner.
