The globe or the emoji face may change depending on the app you are using to write in.

When you tap it you will see a whole page of emojis yes, with even more if you swipe from right to left. Some can be changed to different colour skins, some cannot. If you find the one you want and tap and hold it, if it can be changed to another colour it will display the ribbon of shades as in my photo.

Once you choose one it will stay in the first page of "favourites" for quite a while in the colour you chose.
