Zoya Beachy Brights 3 for Summer time 2026, Swatches and Evaluate

Press Pattern

Oh hey! Over right here sharing Zoya’s summer season assortment. I like a brilliant neon assortment for summer season as a result of these are the colours I crave! It is a cohesive assortment that has all the colours of the rainbow with just a few shimmers and glitters thrown in, so let’s test it out  

Returning Favorites are marked with an asterisk. For five of the returning polishes, I reused swatches as a result of it is the identical shade and I’m frankly uninterested in swatching them lol. You may see these 5 in my publish right here. I’m additionally sharing my similar assessment. I actually saved my nails lengthy simply so I may have the same nail line once I swatched the remainder of this assortment after which I chopped my nails off instantly after lol.

Alora*: 2 coats. A summer season maraschino pink. That is the third or fourth launch of this one. Whereas it’s a good pink, nothing stands out to me with this shade to always re-release it as one thing particular. I’m assuming this shade should go over properly with a mainstream crowd. From 2024, “I saved swatching this one for final as a result of the mini model of this
stained me so dangerous that I used to be actually nervous. A few colours did
go away some staining akin to Avani and Marisol however a lint-free wipe
fixes it. This didn’t stain as badly as final 12 months, however I’ll admit
that I used to be very fast with this swatch as a result of I didn’t need to threat it.
It’s an amazing pink, however not some factor I gravitate in the direction of.”

Rio: 2 coats. A molten red-orange shimmer. Sure, you possibly can see my seen nail line, however this polish was by no means going to cowl it. This shimmer jogs my memory of older polishes from once I first obtained into Zoya like 2012’s Myrta, or 2015’s Ember, or Marigold in 2018. The shimmer is tremendous sturdy and actually fairly and I actually suppose it is a throwback to older Zoya polishes that we haven’t seen shortly. Simply to say, I did attempt a 3rd code and the image nonetheless confirmed my nails so I saved it at two as a result of that’s extra life like of what I’d do in particular person.

Aja: 3 coats. A sun-washed pastel neon orange. I may inform that this might be my favourite of the brand new colours. It jogged my memory of Bodie which launched in a earlier summer season assortment and I completely love that shade and have an enormous dent in that polish. This one is a beautiful creamsicle shade and jogs my memory of different pastel neons that indies have launched after which discontinued. The truth is, colours like these are my favourite for pedicures. I actually love this one and I’m pleased to have one other pastel neon orange like this in my assortment for once I run out of the others lol. I do want it was just a little extra opaque, however I’m simply pleased to have the colour.

Taji*: 2 coats plus prime coat. A vibrant yellow cream. I occur to like yellows so I do attain for this so much with nail artwork, however I don’t put on it by itself. This has the slightest trace of shimmer, however it’s so slight that Zoya calls it a cream. From 2024, “This
one wanted a topcoat as a result of it actually wasn’t leveling out by itself.
This one has ever so slight shimmer. I’m down for a very good yellow and this
will certainly be one thing that I take advantage of in my nail artwork as a result of it’s
vibrant with an honest components. Simply watch out with making use of as a result of I
was just a little sloppy, which is why it isn’t as leveled. Additionally this one
isn’t actually neon in comparison with the opposite colours.”

Avani*: 3 coats. A key lime ice-cream inexperienced. Once more, that is always re-released. Like Taji, I attain for it so much for nail artwork, however I don’t find it irresistible on my nails by itself. From 2024, “I
love this inexperienced, however it’s undoubtedly patchy. So that you need to watch out
as you placed on the coats to ensure you don’t get a lot of bumps and
actually put on a ridge filler. I don’t put on inexperienced nails like this, however
that is undoubtedly a shade I’ll use for nail artwork.”

Marisol*: 3 coats. A daring turquoise cream. This was the August 2024 shade of the month and I imagine it bought out. It’s a nice blue and I lately used it for nail artwork. Do I want two? Probably not. However it’s a nice shade to put on by itself. From 2024, “This
one is also just a little patchy, however it’s a lovely, good blue and I
find it irresistible. I feel if the climate had been a bit cooler, that two coats is
all you want, however it was just a little patchy most likely due to the warmth in
my room. Marisol was the primary ever shade of the month and I believed it
regarded surprisingly near Pluto, which was a part of the unique Beachy
Brights. You’ll see in my comparability that they don’t seem to be the identical and
Marisol suits the motif a lot better.” 

Cruz: 2 coats. A radiant clear-water blue holographic glitter.  This one jogs my memory of Cove from the Beachy Brights in 2024. I did evaluate them and Cruz is unquestionably a darker extra sapphire-like blue.

Soraya*: 2 coats. An ultra-bright orchid purple. One other shade I have already got 3-4 of. It’s a advantageous purple, however once more, undecided it warrants yet one more re-release. The excellent news is that the older variations haven’t light but, in contrast to comparable colours on this shade household. From 2024, “This
one is also a one coater as a result of it’s so opaque. It’s a true
neon and dries utterly matte so I’m exhibiting that as is. Two coats is
all you want. My publish final 12 months talked about that the polish stained, however I
didn’t expertise that this 12 months.”

Leeloo: 2 coats. An orchid pink holographic glitter. I do like that this one has the slightest tint of purple so as to add to the pink and I feel it makes it actually fairly. I feel Zoya has been utilizing this glitter shimmer mixture for lots of polishes and I’m not mad at it. I undoubtedly put on these colours extra as a gradient or an accent now than a full manicure, however it’s so superior and sparkly.

Coralie: 2 coats. An electrical watermelon pink. This shade is unquestionably electrical watermelon and pulls extra pink than pink on my nails. I did two coats and there’s a little little bit of seen nail line, however I don’t thoughts for colours like this as a result of often a 3rd coat doesn’t make a distinction. That is undoubtedly a nail artwork shade for me or a pedicure shade. It’s actually enjoyable for a pink because it has that good trace of pink to make it particular. I wore this for a couple of minutes and it’s stained my nails so remember.

Pinkie: 2 coats. A tropical pink cream. I can see the place they name this a tropical pink as a result of it undoubtedly is an ideal island shade. Once more, nothing groundbreaking, however it has an amazing components and is actually efficient as an excellent brilliant pink with a pleasant components.

 

Zelli*: 2 coats. A punchy sizzling pink. I truly do not have this one because it was the July 2023 Shade of the Month and my data present I began receiving CotMs in November 2023! There’s nothing that’s completely groundbreaking about this pink, however it’s a nice sizzling pink. Once more like lots of the pinks and reds, these colours by no means totally cowl in two coats, however they nonetheless don’t cowl in three coats so I often name it a day at two.

I like a brilliant and enjoyable summer season assortment. However 3 of the returning favorites are actually all the time “returning” and I’ve three bottles of it, so we will simply cease re-releasing these. It could have perhaps been higher to simply have the brand new shades as a smaller summer season assortment. 

These colours retail for $14 every. There are all the time gross sales, so I’d personally maintain off till that. They promote them individually or as an entire set, however there isn’t a low cost for the set and also you threat re-buying colours it’s possible you’ll already personal.
