Essie’s Sure Shot is a dark iridescent magenta nail polish. The color is very deep and is closer to the purple family than the pink. The formula is very runny and it definitely requires a double coat. I found it hard to work with this nail polish. I also thought it would be nice to compare Sure Shot to another magenta color from Essie, Super Bossa Nova. This polish was included in last summer’s Color Me Braziliant collection. Super Bossa Nova it a bright magenta and very similar to Tour de Finance (swatch review), I like both these colors better than Sure Shot.

Yet another new color that I like from Essie! No More Film is a creamy deep violet that looks great with just one coat. It is the perfect 50/50 mix of blue and purple. In the sunlight, it looks purple, but in a dim lit room it looks like a dark blue.

The resort collection includes three other colors; pink-a-boo (a light sheer pink), she’s picture perfect (an iridescent lilac), and sure shot (a shiny magenta). Sure shot also caught my eye and I might color swatch and review it soon.
