Formula Overview
$17.00/0.05 oz. - $340.00 Per Ounce
The formula is supposed to have a black base and "intense color changes" that are best applied with fingertip or a dry brush, as they are "very pigmented and smooth." The brand recommends not to blend them too much to "preserve the extreme multichrome shift."
The blackened base was noticeable, but often, it wasn't quite as dark or as intense as I've experienced with other black-base multichromes, so they were a little more forgiving if one blended them out a little too much. Most of the shades lived up to the "extreme" part of the shift, too!
They were richly pigmented with a soft, smooth consistency that was lightly emollient but not too thick or too densely-packed into the pan, so it was easy to pick up product with a dry brush as well as fingertips/dampened brushes if preferred. The eyeshadow applied evenly to bare skin and blended out well along the edges. They lasted between seven and eight hours on me before creasing visibly.

Formula Overview
$15.00/0.05 oz. - $300.00 Per Ounce
The formula is supposed to be a cross between "vivid metallic and iridescent chameleon," so they have a stronger color base but a multichrome shift. The brand recommended applying over an eyeshadow primer and in a thin layer to "intensify the shift," though I did not personally find that primer necessarily impacted the shift as they were readily apparent used on their own.
They were richly pigmented with a soft, smooth consistency that was lightly emollient but not too thick or too densely-packed into the pan, so it was easy to pick up product with a dry brush as well as fingertips/dampened brushes if preferred. The eyeshadow applied evenly to bare skin and blended out well along the edges.
The vivid, more colored base helped make these easier to incorporate with other eyeshadows, too, so those who find multichromes daunting may like to start with this type of multichrome. They lasted between seven and eight hours on me before creasing visibly.

Another set of stellar multichromes from Terra Moons. All of them look so vibrant. Atomic Division has caught my eye – that gorgeous blue in it.
I’d have to say that Cosmic Collision is the one for me, because it is a way to get away with wearing something almost in the light “blue” family, although it’s not truly “blue”.
The sheen on these! They look so luxe.
Protostar looks like a beautiful complex shade in your swatches, I may get this in the future if Cosmic Collision and Atomic Division work well with my skin tone (pre-ordered those with a couple other shades). I’ve had a much easier time learning to work with the translucent and lighter based shades from Terra Moons. The black based shades are more of a challenge IMO. 🙂
I *rarely* comment here but my goodness, my jaw just dropped at these swatches! I need me some of that gorgeous industrial multichrome lovefest!
To the debit card, we go … le sigh lol
Wow! These are stunners!
They are all stunning!!!!! TM is killing it!
Oh my, these are all so inspiring! Honestly, these was the kind of artistically inspiring shades I was expecting from PMG’s Mothership X.
