placeholder

I have a form with inputs having placeholders showing * for required field in addition to helper text. What i want is to change the color of * i.e. last character of placeholder <input type="text" placeholder="Name *" /> Is there any selectors for that? In addition to below selector, selecting a placeholder ; input::-webkit-input-placeholder (for webkit browsers) thanks in advance!
