Dove

this is my second Zoya polish and I’m kind of disappointed, my first one is Kelly, which is magnificent! A grey that sometimes looks black sometimes blue. I’ve never owned a grey before Kelly and since i loved it so much i figured i needed a lighter version. it just looks blahh // flat on me. i applied FOUR coats to achieve opaqueness. This brand is obviously hit or miss, i just love that they’re 5 free. i’ll possibly try one more color.

This color is ok. I have 30+ Zoya colors and this one was the first to disappoint me. On my skin its a Taupe/grat color not the shade I was expecting in the photos provided by Zoya.

LOVE!

This grey is perfect for pink skin. The grey has light undertones which is extremely flattering. Looks gorgeous on me, definitely a really nice basic grey that definitely goes with everything.

Lovely color. Polish went on very easy. Opaque in two coats. Flawless finish and it lasted well.

This may be the perfect gray (I’m always on the search for one). It’s not taupe and not blue and is very neutral rather than corpse-like (a problem I find with some of these light gray-blue-lilac tones). Lovely coverage too.

I have always been a bright polish person. Just recently I have started digging neutral creams. I absolutely love this color. It is a true grey. A little darker than I was expecting but it looks great against my pale skin. So glad I branched out of my comfort zone!!!

Dove is a soft, cloudy grey with a gently luminous creme finish. The formula was unexpectedly thin and watery; I needed three coats for opacity. It would make a striking French manicure.

It lasts a week for me with no top coat. It’s a very light grey, and looks very nice. I have a medium-olive tone skin. It goes on very smoothly, and I apply 2 coats.

this color is a nice taupey gray against my pale, pinkish, translucent skin. i like it as a neutral that i could wear to work. i actually needed 3 coats for opacity, unlike some other reviewers. i think i’d only wear this in spring and summer because like other reviewers mentioned, it could look a little too corpse-ish in cloudy or gray weather.

looove zoya polishes. they wear great. Dave however was more in the cool tone family than i expected and hoped for. it is a lovely shade and just as great quality as other zoya polishes but definitely looked a bit blue/lavender on me. not my favorite, but if cool tones work on you, it’s great.

I love Dove. It was opaque in 2 coats. Only thing about it is that it sometimes come off as a blue-grey in certain lighting.

I am not a neutral kind of girl, but when I am in the mood for one, I like Dove best of all! The name is a perfect name...if you have ever watched a Mourning Dove, this color IS that. It’s a light, very pretty gray w/ a hint of taupe. I just love it when I’m in the mood for a neutral.

I’m torn between Freja and Dove, but they both have their places - I wear Freja more in the summer, Dove more often in winter. Both beautiful. Lots of compliments on both.

I’m not really impressed with this one. I have fair skin and as a medium skinned reviewer mentioned, this color also looked very dead on me. Muted and flat cool gray.
I think you would do justice to this color with a short manicure. True to color with 2 coats. Not really a favorite for me, definitely not a repeat purchase.

I really liked Dove more than I thought I would. The grey cream is definitely unique and I really like it on my toes. It’s a very muted and relaxed color.

Dove is a medium gray cream. However, it did not look good against my medium warm skin tone. It looked like corpse nails on me. I put a matte topcoat over it which helped soften it a bit. I will have to give it away to someone more ’cool.’

I got Dove as a free color and I expected to hate it. I am just not a gray fan. Well, Dove has completely won me over. It’s a very soft, warm gray that seems to go with anything I wear. I will wear this again, and again.

This is the 2nd colour from Zoya I’ve tried, and though I’ve decided that a grey creme polish doesn’t quite suit me, I’d say that if you like the colour in the pic, you’ll like this. Mine appears slightly darker on my nails, but I think this may have to do with my colouring (very fair, pink undertones). It just doesn’t look "soft" on me. Longevity is great; not quite as long as my first Zoya polish but I think this may be due to the fact that I did the basecoat (Anchor), 2 coats of polish, and then the topcoat (Armor) all in quick salon fashion, with no drying time inbetween. I then used the Qtica Half Time Drying Accelerator (which is also fantastic). Opacity is achieved completely in 2 coats; however, if you’re short on time or just don’t want to, coverage is great with only one coat, and if you put it on a little thick, it’d be almost opaque.

This is a color for all seasons. I had my eye specifically on this one and Jules when I first saw the Intimate collection but ended up buying the entire set during the Intimate promo last month. Sure enough, I love this color as much in person as I did from the swatch. It’s he perfect shade of grey - not too dark and not too light. I love cremes, so I’m obviously delighted that this grey is a creme formula and doesn’t have anything (glitter, shimmer, metallic sheen,etc.) to take away from it’s mesmerizing color. My only complaint is that it didn’t apply as smoothly as I expected. It was a bit messy to put on and I messed up a couple nails and had to do double takes for those. The consistency is on the thick side, making it a little tricky to work with. But the shade is to die for, so that’s the redeeming factor!
