I agree. Swatching each of the powders for blushes only, then highlighters only, etc was SUPER helpful and you can see the difference with the different lighting. Thank you
Thank you! 😊 Really glad it helped… those palettes are no joke to pick between, so I tried to make it as clear as possible. Appreciate you taking the time to watch!
Hi Michelle 👋 I’m so glad the group swatches were helpful for you! 😊 I always find it easier to compare everything side by side like that. It makes such a difference, right?! Thanks for watching! 💖
Thank you so much! I’ve watched alot of videos on this and yours was honestly the best!!! I’m Also going to go with the dragon after watching your video! 😊
Aah I’m so glad my review helped you decide. 😊 I think Dragon’s a solid choice, you’ll prob end up reaching for it all the time. Let me know how it works out for you!✨
Oh, I totally get it! That’s the struggle with these holiday palettes. Hourglass just knows how to tempt us, right? 😆 If it helps, think about which one you’d reach for more often. Dragon has softer shades overall and Evil Eye has punchier pink blushes, and more shimmer when compared to dragon. Glad the video kinda helped, though! And good luck choosing, you really can’t go wrong with either!
I always use the finishing powder before the highlighter because I don’t want the highlighter to spread to other areas of my face. Amazing review ❤ just subscribed!
Thx for sharing! I totally get not wanting the highlighter to move around, so using the finishing powder first makes perfect sense. Thank you so much for your kind words, and welcome to the channel! 💖 I’m really happy to have you here! 😊
Thank you so much! You really helped me realise its the dragon for me. I dont like sprakles in makeup and did not know until I saw youre video that evil eye includes sparkle blushes.
Hi Ka! Haha, right?! The struggle is REAL when you’re torn between two palettes! 😂 Thank you so much for the love and for subscribing! 💖 So happy to have you here 😃
I love how you have a structured approach to evaluating products. You have done this in your other work, and it was most helpful in comparing these palettes. I also went for the Dragon. Thanks so much for your work on this!
Thank you for this video!! Very helpfull!! It will be my first Hourglass palette and I have fair skin. I don't know about the 2 finish powders in the Dragon one but still go for this one🎉 i think 😂😅
Is Fabi short for fabulous? 💥 As always, you’re the best. I’ve been waiting for you to review these pallets and although I have found some other reviews, helpful, yours has been the most thorough. I struggled like you to make it a decision and after all the reviews, I’ve watched, yours finally helped me also choose the Dragon palette for my light, medium skin tone.
LOL, you know what? I think I’ll start telling people Fabi does stand for fabulous! 💁♀️✨ So happy to hear my review sealed the deal for you! Dragon is such a great choice for light-medium skin. Thanks for the love and for waiting on my review. I appreciate it! 💖
Hey Annie! Thank you so much, that means a lot! 😊 As for the Hourglass shimmer, if you're referring to the shimmery blushes, it's one of the more forgiving formulas. The shimmer particles are super fine, so it gives a nice glow without emphasizing texture too much. That said, a light hand is always helpful if texture is a concern. Now, if you're talking about the highlighters, they are more intense and metallic, so they can highlight texture a lot more. Hope that helps, and thanks again for your sweet comment! ✨
The Dragon was a very nice addition to my Leopard as it’s very good as you say for subtle and natural ish makeup days, being relatively desaturated. I’m around your skin tone :)
I'm so glad to hear that Dragon has been a great addition to your Leopard palette Cicely! 🐉🐆 The softer tones in Dragon def give you good options for lighter makeup days 🙌 And how cool that we have similar skin tones-makes it so much easier to follow along with recommendations!
just subbed. i ordered the evil eye case , but the lightest palette or shade 1.I am from Canada ,so $122 but i signed up to get the welcome bonus 10%.You got me when you say it's good for day look or everday look,that's what i needed,just a light make up or subtle look to go on my day.Thanks
Thank you so much for subscribing! 💕 I know I’m a little late replying, but I really appreciate your comment. Ah, the Dragon color story in the the Evil Eye case.. it's so awesome how Hourglass gives you the option to select the packaging. It’s so nice to have something subtle and easy to wear for daily makeup! Hope you’re loving it!
I get milia and something that can help you with your eye lid that is extremely effective is Paula’s choice BHA9- at least it worked for me…less invasive
I'm fair skinned and am confirming that the dragon palette finishing powders do look very different on me. One for the whole face, one for brightening. 😄
Wow, fantastic rewiev and for me very helpfull because till now I didn't which one Dragon or Evil Eye😵😵💫🤯 but thanks to you I know😊 Dragon. For the first time I watched you and I like it👍👍👍 BIG THANK YOU fo saving my money. I want buy both palette but my makeup is only daily so Dragon is the winner❤ Ps. I'm your new subscriber😊😊
Thank you SO much Aga! 🥰 I’m so glad the review helped, and yay for choosing Dragon, it’s honestly such a solid pick for everyday makeup! And I totally get the temptation to grab both, but girl, I’m happy we saved you some money! 😂 Welcome to the channel, and I’m so excited to have you here!! 💖 I appreciate your support more than you know, and I can’t wait to see you in the next video! Thanks again for subscribing! 😊✨
Love the review! Wish the finishing powder in the dragon was darker, because it would have been perfect. But I have the leopard and snake from last year, so the evil eye looks like a repeat to me
Hi Nermeen! Thank you! 😊 The Dragon finishing powders are definitely on the light side, and since they’re so similar, I totally get wishing for a darker option. They work on my skin but are still a bit light. And yeah, if you’ve got last year’s leopard and snake, I can see how Evil Eye feels like a repeat. Oooh, have you seen their latest quad?? 3 of the shades are supposedly new. The finishing powder does look light in the promo pics though 🤔 Not available for purchase yet but I did join the waitlist. I might pick that one up to review and compare. 💖 Thanks for watching!
Best demo! And definitely Lotus flower is not, even I was so tempted to get that palette bc of the shades but I’m true light skin 😳 now I think Dragon and Wvil eyes look stunning on you
Awesome....just the sort of video I needed.....I'm having a pay $140 AUD and then get it shipped here.....smh....I still don't know which one....I'm same colouring as you.....if I have to chose I need for evening colours....so the evil eye it will most likely be.....

how was dragon compared to last year's jellyfish?
Extremely helpful in deciding but I still want both ( dragon & evil eye ) 😅 but budget is tight so might have to choose. Excellent video.

This was phenomenal! Every influencer needs to take a page from your book. Does HG shimmer bring out texture? Thank you!

@@FabiMadeup can’t wait for the review!
Where did you get your headband??
My bf brought the lotus palette as a gift for me and I am light-medium skin tone. Did appreciate his effort but now I’m stressing out 😂😂😂
Best demo! And definitely Lotus flower is not, even I was so tempted to get that palette bc of the shades but I’m true light skin 😳 now I think Dragon and Wvil eyes look stunning on you
For sure, if you’re light then Lotus Flower def won’t look right. But the other 2 will work great :) thank you for the compliment! 💕
