1016 Can a woman wear makeup while Fasting?
Scholars say that it is permissible for women to wear makeup, so long as it is not worn with the intention to show off, impress or attract others or other wrongful intentions. A woman should keep herself tidy, presentable and be graceful at all times and follow Shariah at all times.

Moving back to your question regarding wearing makeup whilst Fasting; As long as you don’t violate those rules which nullify your Fast, then all other permissible actions are fine to follow whether in Fast or not. It is important also to remember that when fresh Wudu is done, all the makeup is taken off, so that the water reaches the skin, in order for the Fard of the Wudu to be fulfilled.
