Terra Moons Lunar Cosmic Chameleons Reviews & Swatches (Part 2 of 2)
Gamma Ray
Terra Moons Gamma Ray Cosmic Chameleon Shadow ($13.00 for 0.05 oz.) has a warmer, plummy-brown base with shimmer that shifted from gold to green. It had opaque color coverage in a single layer that adhered beautifully to bare skin with a smooth, even lay down of product.
The texture felt smooth to the touch, moderately emollient but not too dense, which made it easy to work with using a dry brush or fingertips. It stayed on nicely for eight and a half hours before fading 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.

Terra Moons Helix Nebula Cosmic Chameleon Shadow ($13.00 for 0.05 oz.) has a faded, bluish-purple base with shimmer that shifted between green, gold, and copper paired with a metallic finish. The eyeshadow felt soft and smooth to the touch, not too firmly nor too loosely-pressed into the pan, which helped it apply well to bare skin and blend out nicely along the edges. It had rich pigmentation that lasted well for eight hours before showing signs of fading.

Take one good guess where ALL 3 landed? I love each one of them as almost one ‘n done shades. All they really need are a transition, brown and inner corner highlight because of how the different shades play off within each shadow.
I’m loving the complexity of Helix Nebula. What a gorgeous array of shifts.
Concur!
All beautiful shades but I especially like Inertia 🙂
OMG – these are divine! I especially love Inertia and Gamma Ray – to me they would be the ‘one and done’ eyeshadow.
Like them all!
Helix Nebula made my heart skip a beat!
These are stunning! I’m heading to the site now…just lovely!
