Firstly, welcome to the forum.
Adalind never managed to slither off without facing repercussions. Plus, beauty is in the eye of the beholder. IMO, Adalind's beauty cannot make Juliette any less beautiful. It seems you considered one prettier than the other, idk. They were both beautiful women.
In S1 Adalind got her hex taken due to her actions.
In S2, she lost her mom as a result of the cat scratch incident.
Later, she regained her hex but double crossed the royals in the process by running off with the baby, but she still suffered because Diana got taken from her.
She returned to the royals with her tail in between her legs in the hopes of being a glorified babysitter to the child. The royals used her to punish the grimm by having her take his grimm from him. That act was also to punish Sean (since they de-powered his grimm). Most important of all, the royals used her and then meted out her own punishment too. Once she got to Vienna, they placed her in the hex dungeon.
Then royals used her as a pawn when they returned to Portland, then offered her up as bait to get another pawn in place, so as to take down Kelly and get their hands on the main prize (Diana). Adalind got that beat down from Juliette, so Juliette got some satisfaction. When Adalind ran to Nick for help, she was uncertain and, rightfully, fearful that he would not care about her or the baby. Thus, as leverage, she offered a hex suppressant to fix Juliette.
On the topic:
Juliette/Eve suffered as well but also had her own share of misdeeds. However, by the end of the series Juliette is back in the fold with the gang but prefers to remain as hexenbiest Eve. The story ends with everyone being very different from how they originally started out in S1. Nick, Juliette, Adalind, Hank and Wu have shown remarkable change from when we first met them. The scoobies all have battle scars and some have acknowledged, at different points during the final two seasons, that they all share some guilt. The writers left them all as friends in S6 E13.
In the blame game of who actually set everything in motion, I believe another poster traced it to the royals (Sean being part of this group). However, the scoobies all have blood on their hands. Each one of them. I don't bash one to prove another's virtue.
