Question

Is one permitted to apply “lip-ice” whilst fasting?

Answer

If a person licks the “lip-ice” off the lip and swallows it, then the fast will be nullified. However, if after licking it he spits it out, then the fast will not be nullified, but doing so is Makrooh-e-Tanzeehi. [Re:- Ahsanul Fataawa Pg.452 Vol.4]
