Movie makeup is not said to be "invented" by anyone. Man has put things on his body since before recorded history. Ash from fires, colored clay, or whatever. Cosmetics have been with us "forever" and their origin is mostly lost to history. When movies came along, it took no time to realize that attention to detail in makeup would enhance the photographic appeal of actors. Makeup was already available, and it was just a matter of adapting what existed to work "well" under the lights used in a shoot.
