I voted for Make-up effects, because most of the times body makeup is effects makeup - except for adult movies 

Quote:
The work and responsibilities of a movie makeup artist are constrained by film production contracts and union rules.

A movie makeup artist applies cosmetics from the top of the head to the top of the breastbone, from fingertips to wrists and from toes to ankles. A movie body makeup artist applies cosmetics to any area of the body that a regular movie makeup artist cannot:

On the other hand, Makeup Effects is makeup including the application of prosthetics to the performers face and/or body.

I disagree with the above.

To try and make it absolutely clear, look again at the rules here: they differ between head (make-up) and rest of body (effects).

I don't see a distinction between head and body in the Invelos crew table.

Based on what I have read here from the links, I have changed my vote to "shouldn't be entered at all". Body Makeup is not one of the credits that we track. Would I like to track it, yes, but until it's qualified...I'm out.

I disagree with the above.

Again, in the text TheMadMartian linked, it explicitly says that a Make-Up Artist deals with the head (and hands and feet) of an actor/extra/whatever, but a Body Make-Up artist does more than that. This is what ObiKen said – and nothing else (I think it's rude to misquote someone). A Body Make-Up artist do the special make-up that is not involved in the job or is allowed per the union rules for a regular Make-Up Artist.

So it's irrelevant how, when or where the credit "Body Make-Up" appears in any feature.

Again, we are all bound to abide by the contribution rules;
Make-up Artist
Basically all credits here point to the head and around it.

Make-up Effects
The definitions of credits here don't list a "Body Make-Up" credit per se, but they do indicate that it's other than the make-up for a cast member's head but also another kind of make-up.
I.e.;

Quote:
Make-up Effects,
Special Make-up Effects [by]
Prosthetic Make-Up

Another quote to help differ between the both and that one has to do more about head make-up and the other about desired bodily effects;

Quote:
Body makeup artists work on areas of the body other than the face to apply many of the same makeup products that a standard makeup artist would use but they may also apply latex or other cosmetics to the body.

The underlined part here completely suggests to me that we're talking about Make-Up Effects.
Otherwise this category of credit would lose its meaning, and "everything" would plain and simply be "make-up".

Quote:
Some body makeup artists also skilled in special effects makeup, and are responsible for applying physical features such as a sternum, added limbs, or other features of the body that a character may not naturally already have.
