I'm so confused

...Isn't this the cultural equivalent of blackface...insert alt text here
"You can use it all over, but you have to use at your discretion, because it can damage your face and … we are not responsible for it," said one salesperson.

"Customers love it but it can be very damaging. Very, very damaging."

And other stores made promises of "whitened" skin within two weeks. Or, as one saleswoman said, "in seconds, become white."
Maybe somebody at Marketplace can explain the rules to me again.

FROM THE COMMENTS:
"Can't I simply "identify" as having a different skin color than the one I was born with? It would be quicker, safer and cheaper. And political correctness would protect me from criticism."
