I know most of the sanitation procedures, but as far as lipsticks go- I know I have to dip in alcohol, wipe on a tissue, dip again- but I do i hold it upside down until it dries or can I wipe it on a tissue again? Lastly, after sanitizing the lipstick, can I use a lipbrush and work off that or...

So, I guess I'm a minority here. I'm looking to gain weight.. the healthy way that is. All my life, I've been slender- no not anorexic. In high school I was very athletic, I loved running and was on the volleyball team for 3 yrs. I'm not as active as I was then (that was 3 years ago). Now, I...
