Impetigo would be contraindicated for makeup application primarily due to its contagious nature. Impetigo is a bacterial skin infection that causes red sores and blisters, which can easily spread to other areas of the skin or be transmitted to others through contact. Applying makeup over an active infection could aggravate the condition, potentially worsen the infection or delay healing. Furthermore, it poses a risk to spreading the bacteria to the makeup tools, applicators, and others who might use them.

In contrast, conditions like vitiligo, broken capillaries, and papilloma do not have the same infection risk associated with them. Those conditions may require careful management in terms of makeup application, but they do not inherently contraindicate the use of makeup as long as proper hygiene and application techniques are followed.
