Leah’s 12 Days of Christmas has consisted of many different creative designs, including this Candy Cane Queen design using the Red/Green Elf Contact Lenses. In this look, Leah has used the classic candy cane colours of red, white, and green in a swirling pattern across her chest and up the neck; the face is contoured using red face paint on painted white skin and complete with candy cane patterns and gems. Putting even more attention on the candy cane colours, Leah has added the Red/Green Elf Contact Lenses. These vibrant green and red contact lenses combine classic festive colours to enhance the cheerful aesthetic of this creative makeup look. Not only are these lenses a perfect match for the time of year, but they also work perfectly with the colour combination Leah already uses in this Candy Cane Queen look

If you would like to create a look similar to this by Leah, here are some more contact lens options that we think would make great alternatives:

  • Green Elf Cosplay Contact Lenses
  • Breaking Dawn Cosplay Coloured Lenses
  • Jade Green Natural Coloured Lenses
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

It’s been getting pretty chilly nowadays, with winter beginning to truly set in. Inspired by the drop in temperature, Leah has chosen to create the appearance of frostbite using SFX techniques, and the result is truly icy makeup! Throughout this makeup look, Leah has focused on creating a finish that imitates the nasty effects of frostbite by creating the appearance of ripped skin and bloody wounds all over the face. To enhance the winter weather vibe, white mascara and brow gel have been added to her eyebrows and eyelashes; the Silver Mirror Cosplay Contact Lenses are the perfect finishing touch for this frostbite makeup look, providing a cool-toned eye colour to match the colour palette. 

The Silver Mirror lenses are great for this ice makeup look, but if you are looking for an alternative pair of lenses for a similar finish, try these:

  • Cold As Ice Blue Natural Coloured Lenses
  • Elven Blue Cosplay Coloured Lenses
  • Sapphire Blue Natural Coloured Lenses
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

Finally, one of our favourite looks from Leah during the 12 Days of Christmas trend is the Snow Queen. This beautifully detailed Snow Queen makeup features a selection of blue-toned face and body paints, alongside a white paint for highlighting. In this look, Leah has chosen to use snowflake stencils around the outer circumference of her face; this acts as a border and also creates the cut-out appearance of snowflakes in her makeup, adding even further interest! To complete this Snow Queen face makeup, Leah has added the Snowflake Cosplay Coloured Lenses to enhance the snowy and cold feel that this character portrays. These bright blue contact lenses are unmissable and are the perfect option for winter makeup looks

For your Snow Queen makeup, if you would like to try a different contact lens design for this character, check out some of our favourite options:

  • Galaxy Blue Cosplay Coloured Lenses
  • Shiva Blue Cosplay Coloured Lenses
  • Super Sky Blue Coloured Lenses
  • Frozen Blue Cosplay Coloured Lenses
