OPI Here Today...Aragon Tomorrow Suede and a Comparison

I love matte polishes and the OPI Suedes are no exception.  So when I found out that OPI was releasing a suede version of Here Today...Aragon Tomorrow, I knew I had to have it.

I went with two coats of it over a completely dry base coat for this swatch.



 And because I was curious, I topped it with a thick coat of Seche Vite for these two pictures.


With top coat, this one's super sparkly in the sun.


Since I love to do comparisons, I got out my bottle of Zoya Verushka.  From left to right, this is two coats of the OPI with top coat, two coats of Verushka with top coat, two coats of the OPI, and two coats of Verushka.  I took this picture in the shade.


I took this picture in the sun.


And I took this picture with the flash.


While matte, these polishes are really close.  Verushka is a little darker and bluer than the OPI.  The differences really come out with top coat.  With top coat, Verushka really outshines the OPI, in my opinion.  It's more sparkly and seems to have a depth to it whereas the OPI seems flat.  Don't get me wrong - I like both polishes, but I like the Zoya a whole lot more.
