First to be featured is Daul, a rosy, violet metallic. I had no issues with application, but with removal...dang, I hate micro shimmer removal. It's like shimmer herpes. Anyway, two coats covers well. I've heard a few people wonder how this polish compared to Zoya Faye, but I can't answer that...I don't have Faye to compare.

Next is FeiFei! I'm gonna tell you first that I don't particularly care for this polish. Second, I think it looks cool. So why don't I like it? The color...it's a blue foilish metallic. It looks like a week-old bruise. To me, it looks like Crystal and Faye had a baby. To me, the combination is odd. I don't think it's flattering hahaha BUT the formula, you know, standard Zoya! Silky smooth application :)

And now time for Song! I love this color! My bottle is a little thick (or maybe the formula is?) but it took a little doing to get this polish on. It still appears a little goopy in spots. Zoya calls this an "Egyptian blue," and I like it! It reminds me of ORLY Royal Navy!

Can I get a "yay!" for Ray? Hahaha, silly me. But, yes. This color is awesome! This deep green is shimmery goodness all the way! No problems with application - actually, if played right, Ray could be a one-coater. I love those :)

And now it's time for Suri, the belle of the purple ball. She's a gorgeous royal purple shimmer...and I noticed when it intense sunlight, there's red and blue little micro shimmers swimming around! You can see it in the first photo. I will say that while the application was better on this polish, it applied quite like Song...as in a little goopy.

And now for my favorite of this collection - Elisa! I love the crimson metallic glow she has...makes her kind of look like fire! :) I loved wearing her, and I look forward to wearing her many times :) Formula is top notch; applies like a dream :)

And there you have it! The Diva Collection! What do you guys think? See any must-haves? I will have the Designer Collection and the Gloss Collection upcoming here in the next few days!
