Zoya Starlette, May 2025 Color of the Month

 Press Sample

I will say that Zoya actually shipped this polish out April 30th. But then it took a cross-state tour of New Jersey for almost 2 weeks! UGH! Then life got in the way and I did not get a chance to post this but good news is that I checked and it is still available on Zoya’s website. Since it’s already June, I noticed that they did not release a June color of the month which they didn’t do last year either. I want a June color for my birthday month. But anywho, here we go. 

Zoya’s May Color of the Month is Starlette

Starlette feels like it was truly born under the stars—a luminous lilac, electrified with brilliant holographic shimmer (think a lilac more holographic version of Twinklette). It’s the kind of shade that captures the soft magic of spring, then takes it to a whole new level—bold, dimensional, and unforgettable. Whether you’re grounded in Taurus season or embracing Gemini’s dual energy, Starlette mirrors the moment: elegant, expressive, and always catching the light.

 

 

Starlette: 3 thin coats plus topcoat. I love this glitter and it is super pretty. You could certainly layer one coat over a pastel purple or use this as gradient tips. It is lovely! The removal is a mess, but the pay off for glitter nails like this is probably worth it. I actually have a glitter base peel off coat type base coat that I only just remembered, and I should try that again! 

 

Of course I had to take pictures outside. If you could not see the sparkle in the indoor pictures, then here ya go. But it is sooo sparkly!

Of course, I had to do a little comparison so from the left to right, we have Twinklette, Cosette, Starlette, and Fairleigh (I just noticed the -ette theme). These are all in the same vein of color, but do you have subtle differences. I really thought Fairleigh was going to be a dupe of Starlette and I was very wrong. But I’m wondering if I need all four of these. 

 

Like I said, I want a June color of the month. Instead, I got the press release that they are releasing a summer collection, where seven of the colors are repeats or re-releases. They keep releasing the same neons over and over again and I really don’t need a third Yohanna, Loni, and Brinkley. I do appreciate they added Paisley which was a color of the month from last year, but it’s just not exciting for me to see 7/12 colors be re-releases. These actually just came in, but I will post whenever I get to it! LOL.
