Although she was by no means the first, Shirley Eaton opened the doors for a series of other actresses to appear in bodypaint (most commonly in gold or metallic) in movies or magazine spreads. More recently with the increasing use or airbrush techniques a number of actresses have appeared in science fiction movies and series sporting exotic paint jobs. There is a separate section for fake tattoos.

You will also find bodypaint makeups in the fantasy section and (of a particular sort) among the blackface makeups.
