Hi! I'm Emily, and I'm just starting the Special FX makeup course here on QC.
I have a bit of a makeup dilemma, and I wonder if y'all can help me out?
Before I started the course I used one of my cream makeup palettes on my friend and I double-dipped with the brush, and didn't use any 99% alcohol either! Just straight from palette to brush to face!

My friend, however, didn't have any contagious skin diseases (or any at all save very slight acne) and I would be comfortable with using the same palette on myself. Is it still safe/acceptable to use the palette with the correct procedure?
