The idea that any comment about a group of people is inherently stereotypical is silly.

Perhaps a more suitable word would be overgeneralizing? If American women wear too much makeup and color their hair, then it follows that European women bathe once a week and use perfume to cover their body odor. Gimme a break. The idea that any comment about a group of people is anything other than complacency and fosters biases is ludicrous.
If your proclamation makes something a beauty standard, that's definitely not Shell's problem.
