Anastasia Beverly Hills Tamanna Palette Review
I’ve finally got the Anastasia Beverly Hills Tamanna Palette review for you. This is a gorgeous Fall themed palette that’s available now from Nordstrom, Sephora, and Anastasia’s website. This palette was created for Tamanna @dressyourface. In addition to my review, I have this palette compared to the Maya Mia and Amrezy, as well as a tutorial with it.
Anastasia Beverly Hills Tamanna Palette Review
You can see my Maya Mia, Amrezy and Catwalk reviews. You can also see my reviews of the Lavish Set and Hypercolor Brow Powders.
About the palette
This collection of versatile shadows constitutes Tamanna’s “must have” shades to achieve her most requested looks on any skin tone. The combination of warm and cool tones combine to create anything from smokey eyes to intricate cut creases, all from a single palette. Specially formulated, high-impact pigments in rich neutrals and shimmering jewel tones go on smoothly and eliminate the need for overbuilding when applying.
- 10 x 0.025 oz Eye shadows in Sangria, Venezia, Custom, China Rose, Fresh, Chocolate, Bengal, Noir, Gilded, Blush
- Cruelty free
Price
$29
This palette does contain carmine.
It comes with 5 look cards.
All eyeshadows are swatches on Coastal Scents Step One primer.
Fresh
pale peachy pink matte. To me this is great for a matte highlight or a base shade. Nude from Maya Mia is deeper and more tan toned.
Blush
pale icy peach shimmer. Glisten from Maya Mia is deeper toned.
China Rose
orange-toned coral with gold shimmer. Fresh Peach from Maya Mia is similar, but China Rose has better color payoff and strong gold iridescence.
Gilded
gold with brown tones shimmer. Topaz from Amrezy is more brown toned.
Custom
taupe with purple tones shimmer. Warm Taupe from Maya Mia is more brown toned and matte
Venezia
light metallic teal. Aqua from Maya Mia is lighter and more matte.
Bengal
satiny caramel. Caramel from Maya Mia is deeper and more matte.
Sangria
burgundy metallic. Nothing like it in Amrezy or Maya Mia.
Chocolate
smooth dark chocolate brown matte. Lighter than Deep Brown from Maya Mia and lighter, less plum toned, than Deep Plum from Amrezy.
Noir
soft black matte. LBD from Amrezy is very similar. Can be built up to a more solid black.
You can see that Fresh (Tamanna) is much lighter than Nude (Maya Mia). Blush (Tamanna) is much lighter than Glisten (Maya Mia and Amrezy). China Rose (Tamanna) has strong gold iridescence that Fresh Peach (Maya Mia) does not.
Gilded (Tamanna) is like a lighter version of Topaz (Amrezy). Custom (Tamanna) and Warm Taupe (Maya Mia) are nothing alike.
Venezia (Tamanna) is metallic and deeper in tone than Aqua (Maya Mia), which is a matte. Bengal (Tamanna) is satiny and lighter than Caramel (Maya Mia).
Chocolate (Tamanna) is lighter and more brown than Deep Plum (Amrezy) or Deep Brown (Maya Mia). Noir (Tamanna) and LBD (Amrezy) are very similar.
I used Fresh, Noir, Sangria, China Rose, Bengal and Blush for my tutorial.

Just like with the Maya Mia and Amrezy palettes, you’re paying $29 for 10 eyeshadows that are .025 oz each. Your average single eyeshadow is .05 oz. In Urban Decay, you would pay $90 for 5 eyeshadows that added up to .25 oz of product. With this palette you’re getting .25 oz of total product for only $29. I think this is a pretty good deal for the price, even if I do wish the shades were larger.
I do like the packaging for the Tamanna palette, but I definitely think that the Maya Mia is more to my taste. The brush included is soft. You can use one side to apply shadow to the lid and the other for the crease, or use it to highlight.
Overall, I feel this palette has the least amount of similar shades between the Amrezy, Maya Mia and Catwalk palettes. I feel like the colors in this palette, which leans warm, to be really pretty. The colors blended together easily. I really liked that I could laye Sangria on top of Noir to create a sort of metallic burgundy shade. China Rose blended into Sangria without effort.
I really like that you get 5 look cards to get you started and give you ideas on what to wear and how to coordinate the shades.
The colors had good pigmentation to me and my look wore for 12 hours on primer before I took it off with no creasing or fading. I felt like this palette didn’t have any shades that lacked pigmentation.
I do wish that Custom was a jewel toned purple. I also wish that Gilded was a slightly more golden shade. I also wish that Venezia was a deeper teal, because it feels too much like a summer teal to me.
You can buy this palette now from Nordstrom, Sephora, and Anastasia’s website. I believe Nordstrom has a sale going on.
Pros
- Cruelty free
- Nice mix of shades
- Nice mix of textures
- Great for travel
Cons
- Leans warm. If you don’t like warm palettes you may want to skip this
Sangria is a winner!
can you compare pink sapphire and sangria?
Which palette is pink sapphire from?
I love what you did with your eyes. It’s so pretty!
Thank you!
Loving the look. I need to try one of these palettes from Anastasia. I have yet to pick any of them up.
I’d say this one or the Maya Mia 🙂
Ooh yes! This eye look is awesome, Phyrra!
Thanks Kristen!
So pretty, and it love the look you created…especially that ombré lip! China Rose is such a beautiful shadow.
China Rose is definitely a show stealer!
This looks amazing! I love the get the look cards, I always lean towards using a guide when it’s available.
Me too! I really like to see what companies put together.
China Rose is a gorgeous color!
It’s definitely one of the prettiest shades in this palette
I think that this is one of their prettier palettes they recently released.
Agreed!
I ordered this palette and can’t wait for it to arrive! The colors in it are gorgeous and I LOVE the look you created with it
Yay I hope you enjoy playing with it
Beautiful colors, and they’re very pigmented. Love it
I do love their pigmentation
This looks and sounds like a great palette. My favorite shades from this palette are Gilded, China Rose and Custom.
So glad you like it!
This is gorgeous! I regret not buying it now =(
It’s still available!
Beautiful look! I want this palette sooooooooo much.
You can still get it!
I like the warm shades here…
Lots of pretty shades 🙂
Cute packaging! I think China Rose is just my shade 🙂
It’s very flattering!
I know you’ve said that yellow-based colors don’t look best on you however, you are stunning in these shades! It brings out the natural light in your complexion and your eyes glow!!
Aww thank you!
Such a great shade selection!
I feel like it was very well thought out
I really like the shades in this one and the packaging looks so Bollywood to me!
It does!
I agree with you Phyrra – the teal should have been a deepened colour. There are a few colours in the palette that look a little too similar to each other and they could have added a blue/green or purple shade to suit more skin tones. This palette, overall is fantastic quality, but I am over neutral palettes per se.
Agreed!
I think I prefer this to the Maya Mia (which I almost bought). The Tamanna has been sitting in my Sephora cart for a couple of weeks now. 🙂
While both are good palettes, I feel like this palette definitely has better overall pigmentation and the shades blend together easily
The colors are all pretty. I like the packaging too.
It’s definitely pretty packaging 🙂
Ah, these shades are so amazingly pigmented! Love the shimmer 🙂
They really impressed me!
Those are pretty colours and the shadows looks so pigmented and rich. I love the eye look you did.
Thanks Erika!
Gorgeous, Indian-inspired shades, I think. And a good price too
Definitely reasonably priced!
