are you all sanitizing powder products with alcohol? Like eyeshadows?

Not me. Just creams and my instruments. Powders just need wiped with a tissue as they don't harbor bacteria.

So those sanitizing sprays from Beauty So Clean for example don't do anything for powders?

No. As long as a powder isn't used wet (with the exception of mineralize powders) they won't harbor bacteria.

Speaking of mineralized, how does one recover a wet MSFN? I saw someone mention using alcohol on the product, but I don't know if that's a spritz or what.

Your best bet is to scrape off the bit that got wet. That's the one mineralize product that can't be used wet.

Yeah it's the exception to the rule, like with the EDSFs-not to be used wet. Hopefully there's minimal scraping needed.

On me, Flamingo is way pinker than Jazzed - almost a little too pink to suit me. I needed a bit of a tan for it to start working but when it did, it was good. It's got plenty of brightness to it, if that's what helps.
I do well in peachy and orange lipsticks, but Cut a Caper (more peachy than Flamingo too) looks hideous on me - the texture doesn't sit smoothly on my lips and settles in this weird way, also isn't opaque enough to cover my natural lip color and not sheer enough to blend with it either. Some people love that one, but I have never wanted to own it. I can wear Jazzed just fine, especially in the summer, Playing Koi when I'm on the pale side in early spring, and I looooooooove Reel Sexy, which is my favorite out of all of these shades.
Side note: if you look good in Playing Koi, you would love the pale peach in Baking Beauties - that one is close to PK, but with a bit nicer texture. I only skipped it because I've got plenty of PK and was trying to save a few bucks here and there.

I ordered five lipsticks except for RD and NO yesterday and it'll arrive today!
I can't wait to see them esp. Flamingo and SK.
I'll let you know how they're during the weekend or so.
