Moroccan Black Soap

  • Steam skin, apply the soap all over in a small amount, let sit and rinse off fully, then take a kerssi glove and scrub.

  • Exfoliates, softens and moisturizes skin.

Argan Oil

  • Apply a small amount to hair.

  • Smooths hair and adds fragrance.

Magic Lipstick

  • Apply to lips and watch as the color changes.

  • Made with aker fassi and reacts to skin’s pH.

Aker Fassi Clay Pot

  • Add water to the pot to activate, it’s best to use a brush to not stain your hands, then apply on lips and cheeks.

  • Made from layers of aker fassi dried to the pot.

Kohl

  • Wipe off excess, hold your eyelid taunt, then swipe between closed eyes.

  • Made of ash, good for eyelash growth and less irritating than other eyeliners.
