Thanks for checking in almost two years after my post, but I think you'll see that I said problematic rather than offensive, which are neither denotatively nor connotatively the same.
Now that I reread your response to me, I'm not sure what your point is. My comment was that using makeup to change your skin color is problematic. I made no conditions on that statement other than to throw out primary colors such as one might do to support a team or to be a Smurf. (in other words, colors that don't appear in nature on skin.) I didn't say that it only applied to certain people. There are problems with it. That's all I said.
