This is a really nice creamy grey, the formula is awesome and I went 5days without any chips. Will definitely repurchase!

This is a creamy light grey. It's a really lovely almost concrete grey. The formula is great.

I got this as part of the Zoya intimates set but don't really like it.
The formula seems thick and streaky to me and it takes 3 coats to eliminate seeing my nail line through the polish and to cover the streaks.
The color is also not good against my skin tone - I'm NC25 and lightly tan,and the polish pulls blue on my nails and just looks odd. I wouldn't repurchase.

This is a very soft, light, cool-toned gray. Despite being a neutral, it's still quite eye catching. I needed two coats for it to reach opacity. The wear on it is good, but both times I wore it I got pretty bad bubbling. I will try thinning it out a bit, and if that helps I will definitely update my review because it really is a beautiful color.

beautiful soft gray- strongly resembles wet cement, though that sounds weird, I love it! wonderful glossy smooth formula, goes on beautifully and wears excellently. I used it to create a super sweet cinder block manicure I'll post momentarily. awesome!

This polish is gorgeous! It is the perfect soft grey, in my opinion. Its richly pigmented, but at the same time a lovely creamy soft tone. The name Dove suits it perfectly, as it is exactly what I would think of if someone said a color was a dove grey. I found it to go on perfectly true to the color in the bottle in two coats, and I finished it off with a coat of Seche Vite. So far, so good, and I've received several compliments on the color too...always nice!

Dove is the perfect cement grey! The color is not necessarily unique, but it is in my collection. I got quite a few compliments on this color, and I really loved it on my skin tone. The consistency was a bit more toward the thin side, but luckily it wasn't difficult to work with. Dove does not play well with Seche Vite top coat though. Not only was there a ton of shrinkage, but it also caused cracking on each nail.

I bought the entire Zoya Intimate Collection on sale and even though Dove is not one of my favorites, it's still a nice polish. It's a cement gray, but it still feels very soft and feminine.
The formula is good - two thin coats was perfect for me. It took about 10 minutes to dry. Because my nails peel, I did notice that this polish clung to ridges and uneven areas, making imperfections noticeable. I was a bit bored with the color after a day, so I layered on China Glaze Crackle Glaze in hot pink and the combo works!
I would not buy it again simply because it's not a color I see myself wearing often.

Received this from swap. The color is exactly like the grey concrete flooring. Funny but not quite attractive on my nails. May look good on fair skin but my slightly tan skin doesn't work well with it. Zoya seems to have a thicker consistency than essie, or is it a swap I got that has started to dry out a bit? Not sure. Quite pricy for $8 - same price as essie but for half the content, with the cheap looking bottle and cap. However, after searching for other colors from the same collection, I'm so eager to try all of them, if I can get them at a lower price. Dove is from 2011 intimate spring collection.

This is a timeless shade for all seasons. I love it to bits and pieces. This shade, along with Jules, were the two shades I had my eye on since I first saw the Intimate collection. It is the perfect tone of grey, not too light and certainly not too dark. It complements my cool-toned skin very nicely.
I love its creamy texture, too. However, the application does go on a bit on the thick side, so just beware. For a couple of my nails, it required double takes. Also, it ended up chipping by night's end (!), which was rather dismaying. But I removed the nail color that started chipping and applied a brand-new layer and it's wearing OK three days later. Please do bear in mind I do not use a base or top coat, just the polish itself, so that could be it. Despite the messy application, I adore the color way too much to be bogged down by the way it applies. It's a very pretty and feminine color, perfect for spring (or any time, really)! 5 out of 5, easy!

I got this today in my birchbox and omg I loooove it. I've heard rave reviews about zoya and I gotta admit it stomps opi in the ground. Such a sweet beautiful color!

Like another reviewer, I wasn't really excited about Dove when I got the Intimates collection. I thought I'd just use to for stamping and that was it. Wow, was I wrong! This is actually my FAVORITE from the collection. It's classy, simply, and unique out of my nail polishes. Despite it being cool toned (almost the whole collection is), it looks good against my skin. It has the usual Zoya cream formula, so it goes on smoothly and you only need two coats, though, because of the paleness, you might want to do three.

Got this in the Intimate's Collection and it was the one I was least excited about - however, it was SUCH an awesome surprise to find that I absolutely adore this color!! Such a simple but gorgeous gray creme. The formula is perfection.

Dove is the gray polish I have been waiting so long for... it is precisely what I wished ChG's Recycle would be on me. Hell, I mixed my bottle of Recycle up with white polish to get it to look like this. Tried so many different types of grays that turned out to look much darker on my hands than in the bottle, but Dove fit the bill perfectly. It's a light, very slightly cool toned grey creme with no frills, just glossy, creamy brilliance. Wore it for only one day and already I got a dozen compliments on it. I absolutely love it and will always have a bottle in my staple collection.
