A Gold & Plum Look with Anastasia Soft Glam
of 5
About this Look
Here’s a look using the Anastasia Soft Glam palette, which is what Bad Habit’s Arabesque palette is supposed to be a dupe for, so I wanted to apply each palette side-by-side using the same brushes (but separate ones for each brand) and one-by-one in order to really see and notate any differences in color, finish, application, along with longevity. Bad Habit Arabesque is on your left, while Anastasia Soft Glam is on your right.
(You can view the look details for Bad Habit’s version here.)

I can’t tell the difference , they both look very nice. I guess it will depend on the longevity of the shadows. Wonder if ABH the more expensive palette last longer on the eyes? Otherwise might as well buy the cheaper palette.
We shall see! Just because something looks the same doesn’t mean it performed or applied the same (true of anything that may appear similar).
