Facial makeup is less influential than other facial variations unless it is a theatrical cosmetic. Usually the face recognition system requires a certain amount of user's cooperation on this problem; that is, if you are an enrolled member in the database, it is better you do not wear a rubber mask when you are requesting for admission.

No racism here.
