The Sailor Starlights share some traits with the Solar System Guardians, having transformation devices to change from civilians into their Sailor Guardian forms, as well as having signature attacks — although they do not represent proper elements like the Solar System Guardians do. Each member of the Three Lights use their own ''Sailor Change Star'', which is a two piece set of microphone and brooch, and respectively shout the phrase "Fighter/Maker/Healer Star Power, Make-Up!" to transform into Sailors Star Fighter, Star Maker, and Star Healer. Takeuchi explained in her own notes that the brooches contain their Sailor Crystals,<ref name="Materials Collection" /> which are perhaps their most important possessions, as they are source of all their powers. The first anime adaptation clearly shows how the Three Lights change from male bodies into female ones when transforming. Unlike most of the Sailor Guardians, the [[Sailor Moon Crystal|second anime adaptation]] changed entirely these transformation sequences, especially since ''Sailor Moon Cosmos'' follows the ''Stars'' arc of the manga closer than the ''Sailor Moon Sailor Stars'' season of the first anime,<ref>{{cite web|last=Clark|first=Coleman|url=https://screenrant.com/sailor-moon-crystal-cosmos-pluto-quartet-skin-color/|title=Sailor Moon Cosmos Omits One Detail From the Manga that Would Have Made a Huge Impact|publisher=[[Screen Rant]]|date=September 19, 2024|access-date=May 9, 2025}}</ref> and thus the Starlights remain female in their civilian forms. 

In the first anime adaptation, each of the Starlights use an item called ''Star Yell'' (sometimes called the ''Sailor Star Yell''), which are palm sized star-shaped devices, to launch their attacks. Star Fighter's attack is ''Star Serious Laser'' &mdash; a focused light blast. Star Maker's attack is ''Star Gentle Uterus'' &mdash; an explosion of lights. Star Healer's attack is ''Star Sensitive Inferno'' &mdash; a circular blast of lightning. The only time the three Starlights combine their attacks occurs in the penultimate episode of the first anime adaptation, in which they join forces to launch a single attack on Sailor Galaxia, managing to physically hurt her. In the musical ''Eien Denstesu'', this attack is named ''Starlights Fusion Tempest'', which is similar in name to Kakyuu's own ''Kinmoku Fusion Tempest''.
