Number One Nemesis

Good afternoon! I don't think I told you all, but for Mother's Day, my little ones got me the mini bottles of OPI's Spiderman collection. It came with four bottles of polish. And I plan on swatching each and every single one on here. I love love love them! It included: Number One Nemesis, Your Web or Mine?, Into the Night, and Just Spotted the Lizard.

Today I am showing you Number One Nemesis. This is the polish I've been wanting for a little while. Ever since these came out. Every time I see it on someone's blog, I drool every single time. And now I know first hand why.

Please excuse my broken middle finger, and my boo boo on my ring finger. I've had a rough week. And my hands were the victims. :(

Here I used:
1 coat Sally Hansen's Double Duty base coat
1 coat Pure Ice Black Rage
2 coats OPI Number One Nemesis
Stamped the image with Konad Special Polish in black with plate BM-208
1 coat Seche Vite

I love love love the pattern. It makes it look almost like a crackle...but it obviously isn't. My daughter, Seyhan, said it looked like spider webs. How perfect!!! :)

The application was beautiful with Number One Nemesis! (As with a huge majority of OPI polish!) I actually love OPI brushes. They're thicker than Essie's brushes, and I enjoy that. I feel like I use less polish with them...but it could be all in my head. I couldn't get any sun shots with this manicure, mainly because I've been crazy busy. So these photos were taken inside, at night, with my flash. But in the sun, this polish sparkles like crazy! It is truly gorgeous.

I seriously recommend that this polish be in everyone's stash. I think this will be a go to polish for me. I like how dark it is, but reflective, glittery, but subtle. It is yumalicious! (My girls and I have been reading Pinkalicious a lot lately...so I have been catching myself adding alicious to pretty much everything...lol)

Have any of you tried this polish? If you haven't, do you want to? What do you think of the stamping??

Until next time....

PS:
I really am going to be doing a giveaway soon. But I would love suggestions on what polish to give away. I can't do a huge giveaway...but a tiny one is better than nothin! :D




Disclosure *I was not paid for this review. I was not given the polish for this review. I paid for the polish with my own money. This is purely my own opinion, thoughts, and suggestions about this polish.*
