It's all sortof before my time, but it seems as if both sortof materialized around the early 1970's (I could be wrong here, though.)
Anyhow, I've noticed that there is a similarity between Ace Frehley's 'Space Ace' costume/makeup and David Bowies 'Ziggy Stardust' costume/makeup.
So which one was first?

Ziggy Stardust happened in '72. Space Ace was sometime in '73. So Ziggy was 1st.
By mid-1973, the unnamed band decided on a name - KISS. Frehley designed the band's unique, double-lightning-bolt logo. The band quickly decided to paint their faces for live performances, and Frehley decided to start painting silver stars on his eyes. When the group eventually decided to adopt stage personas to go with their makeup designs, Frehley became "Space Ace."
Bowie's Ziggy Stardust character became the basis for his first tour beginning in 1972, where Bowie donned his famous red, flaming hair and wild outfits.
