The answer

Interacting with women and sharing beneficial topics with them, and using fruits or vegetables to treat skin problems, is permissible. Furthermore, the one who does so will be rewarded if their intention is to call to Allah and spread good, provided there is no extravagance. Sheikh Ibn Uthaymeen was asked about the ruling on using eggs, honey, and milk to treat freckles and melasma, and he answered that it is permissible, citing Allah's saying: (It is He who created for you all that is on earth), and that Allah is beautiful and loves beauty. He added that extravagance in beautification, to the extent that a person neglects the interests of their religion and worldly life, is not appropriate. The fact that these remedies might be used by someone who adorns herself immodestly does not cause harm, as long as the intention is directed towards one who uses them in a permissible manner. It should be noted that a woman displays her adornment to her husband and her mahrams.
