Gonna be bringing you something slow today, just a review of a Nail Lacquer I acquired recently, of the famed OPI range, Your Web or Mine :)
This Shade is a part of the OPI "The Amazing Spiderman Collection", with other colours in the collection including:
- Call Me Gwen-Ever (coral red)
- Into The Night (shimmery royal blue)
- Just Spotted The Lizard (duo-chrome green gold)
- My Boyfriend Scales Walls (white creme)
- Number One Nemesis (murky green shimmer)
- Shatter The Scales/Green Shatter (teal crack polish)
Source: eBay
As you can see, it is a bright pink shade with a slight pearl finish, and as with all other OPI Nail Lacquers, it doesn't contain DBP, toluene or formaldehyde.
After applying the nail polish, it comes off as looking a little frosty, not like how it looks like in the bottle. For me, it's a pro and con thing, cos it looks nice on my nails, but it looks different on my toenails :/ In the applications below, I have applied two coats, and you can see for yourself how pretty they look.
This is the colour against the sun, it looks darker and metallic-ish.
This is the colour with the sun behind me. The colour turns a little lighter, and much more suited to those working in a more corporate environment.
Verdict: 7/10. You would expect the quality of the nail polish to be good, considering it's OPI, and it is. It lasted me almost two weeks, without a chip, and even when it started chipping, chunks of it doesn't come off, like other polishes that just disintegrates once it starts chipping.
It looks good applied on the nails, making your hands looks very feminine, but personally for me, I feel that it's a very big NO NO if you want to apply it on your toenails. If applied on the toenails, the colour comes off as looking a little gypsy-ish, and not my cup of tea.
Repurchase: Maybe, cos RM63 really is a little steep for nail polish, especially if you don't always use them in the first place
Last comments: On it's own, it's a fairly good shade to own if you love pink or the variable colours, but if it were to be part of a collection, I wouldn't say it should be in the Amazing Spiderman Collection, it would suit the Minnie Mouse Collection, or even the Mariah Carey Collection more.
The OPI Nail Lacquers retails for RM63.00 at selected Nail Parlours, and is also available at Amazon.com for $9.00.
Til the next time, stay beautiful!

My cousins love OPI. It would be awesome if you can draw some web on those nails! ^_^
That's a cute collection! haahah I'm not sure I like this shade too because it is a bit too shiny/frosty for me :) It looks nice on you though :)
I absolutely love OPI polishes, but I tend to wear color on my toes more often than I do on my fingers, so I may have to pass on this one, based on your recommendation! Great, thorough review!
love this colors
I didn't buy anything from this collection and I totally agree with you, this colour doesn't look like it's part of the Spiderman collection. It looks too cute for that.
I've never tried a nail of this brand even if everybody talks about it. I'm sure I have to try it. The color you are wearing is bold and warm...perfect for this period of the year while the summer is leaving us.

Lovely shade, great for Fall!
OPI Spiderman collection has really weird names but gorgeous colors indeed :-D
How weird that the shade differs on your nails and toe nails. I can assure you that the shade is lovely on your nails :)
I'm not a fan of the color but I think it wil look lovely with an accent? :D
I wanted to get the OPI set on hunger games have you seen that?
I love this color!
Everyone's talking about Nail Lacquer these days.. Never tried these.. I guess I'll put them on my shopping list for the Month :) Great post btw
xx Chaicy - Style..A Pastiche!

I love the shade! I wish I could have gotten the box collection, but they didn't sell it here. Only the individual shades :(
i love the shade! :D i didn't even know opi had this spiderman collection!
The shade is quite pretty.. like an everyday nail polish.. personally I prefer brighter one's on my nails.. and you are right, this does look from a Minnie mouse collection :D
RM 63 is too much for an OPI nail polish! In the US, they sell them for half the price >.<
Lovely shade.
I love that OPI is a 3-free brand. It sounds pretty good if it lasted a full two weeks!
Gorgeous colour and so awesome that it lasted so long! xx
haha lovely idea for the collection... got me thinking for a while looking at the box
I love OPI. This is a lovely color and I like the name, your web or mine. haha
This color look so good on you!!
That color is gorgeous!
they do??? OMG I would love to get that set!
They also don't have the boxset where I come from, but I got this as part of a beauty box, so they only gave individual colours :p
I'm thinking of trying it out with some shatter polish, see how it looks :p
thanks dear! :) I myself am quite partial to pearl colours as well :)
they do don't they? Wished I had the entire box!
definitely. Trying to pair this with other variants as well to see how I can make full use of it
it is isn't it :) perhaps I should pair it with coral :)
haha especially considering it's pink >.< I think red would suit more
definitely! I think they should include a bold red colour instead of this one
OMG the colour is killer. I've always had a weakness for this shade. It's so pretty it looks gorgeous on anyone. And it defo suits your nails. Love it! :)
Opi!! always love opi nail polish :D it looks pretty on you!
Love the colour on you Nail girl... Everyone's talking about Nail Lacquer these days .. I'd love to try one.. This goes into the shopping list of the next month !!
