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.

I guess it’s nice that Butterfly Nebula is a potential alternative for Callisto…because I went to TM’s site the other day and it looks like the Pastel Multichromes are discontinued ðŸ˜
Just beautiful – especially Butterfly Nebula.
Even though I doubt that I’ll be buying the more loosely pressed shades reviewed above, I REALLY love Mystic Mountain and Ultraviolet! Truly beautiful shades that I know would make the green in my eyes pop!
Love all of these multichromes, for me Ultraviolet is my favorite, but not a fan of the loose pressed which can lead to fallout. Don’t know if glitter glue would prevent that, but there is still probably fallout during application which I find is a pain to clean up. If I want sparkles on my face, I’ll put them there.
I do like Ultraviolet. I put it on my WL for the future.
Generally I don’t think like multichrome’s for my own makeup. I love looking at your swatches, but I find that most have a shift I don’t care for, and I also have very hooded, rather small eyes, so I don’t think the shifts would show up.
Getting some I would really, really love later on is my idea for all multichrome’s right now.
