"Hi, I'm Sue, I'm here again in West Jordan, trying to remove stains. This time we're going to try to see if we can get out a lipstick stain, that you might get on a sweater, or the collar of a shirt, or somewhere. And when you get it, just take it and you want to very carefully, take some denatured alcohol, and then just lightly dab the stain. Then you could take a little bit of dish washing detergent, put it on your finger, rub it over the spot, and then take, if you have a stain stick, would be good to, to rub it over the fabric. And then go ahead and wash it, probably in cold water. And be sure to hang it up to dry, so that the stain will not stay in. And if in doubt, you may need to take it to a dry cleaner, but usually if you treat it a couple of times, the lipstick will come out."
