Answers:
Herpes only survives outside the body for a matter of seconds, a couple of minutes at most!. Even in ideal temperature-controlled lab conditions, it only survives for about an hour!. It is a very fragile virus!.

And, that is if she was even shedding the virus - shedding only happens about 5-10% of the time!.

You have nothing to worry about at all!. there is no chance you can catch it from your lipstick!Www@Answer-Health@Com

If you cleaned it, you should be okay!. She would have been more thoughtful than to use your lipstick if she had a cold sore!. However, you should also not judge her because she has oral Herpes!. 80% or more of people have oral HSV1 even though some never have any symptoms!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

If she took the lipsick and indeed asked you "if the herpes is very evident now", I would have her buy you a new lipstick!!!

As for you getting it from her!.!.!.!.chances are pretty slim but I'd probably take the same precautions you did!!!Www@Answer-Health@Com

you are kinder than i
i would been madder than hell!.
thats so rude!.

since you fixed it yea!.you shouldnt get a cold sore!.
keep your lipstick the heck away from this woman tho!.
especially if you like expensive makeup!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

i think you will be just fine and by the way you dont even know she has it do you i think you are just tripping and you should be but everything will be okayl :)Www@Answer-Health@Com

The problem with lipstick is that it retains moisture!. Cleaning will not remove the virus!. Cut off a good portion (which you said you did) and you should be fine :)Www@Answer-Health@Com

She only touched the top surface to her lips!. Cut off the top portion and it will be okay!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
