Hi friends! I know you must have whiplash at all of the seasons that I am jumping through. Last week I posted Fall collections, this week there was a winter/holiday collection and now I am posting a bright neon pink that is clearly from a summer release. I don’t have any justifications other than I am just trying to clear out some backlog.
You will be seeing a few posts popping up over the next few days featuring Zoya. I swatched their new Fall collection earlier this week (post will be up in a day or two) and decided to also swatch their colors of the month.
I am undecided on how I feel about Zoya releasing one single polish each month but clearly, I like the concept enough that I have purchased all of them thus far for the year. I will have live swatches for this one in my Zoya fall 2023 review video that goes live this coming Saturday.
As far as I am aware, the colors of the month polishes are not limited edition and this one is still currently available on the Zoya website.

Zoya is a US based mainstream brand. Their polishes are in 15ml bottles, 10 free, vegan and cruelty free.
Zelli
Description: a vibrant hot pink that packs a punch.
Zelli is the bright neon PANK that I always love in summer releases. The formula on this one was surprisingly thick. Like so thick it felt more like a stamping polish than a regular nail polish. Despite the thickness, it applied easily and fairly evenly and self-leveled well.
If this were any other color, I probably would have more complaints about the thickness but this is a bright PANK and it’s literally my favorite color in the world.
My photos show Zelli in 2 coats plus glossy top coat. This does dry down fairly flat so you will need top coat for a glossy finish. This polish is fairly pigmented so I would recommend wearing base coat with it to help prevent any staining.
In case you were wondering if this is the same color as the hot pink cream called Yohanna Zoya released earlier this year (Beachy Brights), that would be a no. The shade of pink is different between the two with Zelli being a more saturated pink.
I will say I do find it odd that the June and July CoTM polishes are similar looks to polishes from the Beachy Brights collection.
