Negative HTTP_HOST match in .htaccess

I am trying to deny access to a folder, unless it is on two specific subdomains. Having a bit of a time getting it to work. Here is what I am trying, which works:

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^allowed.subdomain.com$
RewriteRule ^(hidden) - [F,L]

When I add the second subdomain it fails to work:

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^allowed.subdomain.com$ [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^secondallowed.subdomain.com$
RewriteRule ^(hidden) - [F,L]

So that the hidden folder is forbidden on all domains, except allowed.subdomain.com and secondallowed.subdomain.com

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^allowed.subdomain.com$
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^secondallowed.subdomain.com$
RewriteRule ^(hidden) - [F,L]

This appears to work, if anyone would like to provide a better explanation how the [OR] operator works here as opposed to removing it, I will accept that answer :)

Try below rule I am assuming subdomain.com is same for both the subdomains,

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^(allowed|secondallowed).subdomain.com$
RewriteRule ^(hidden) - [F,L]
