Leah is a main character in Shimmer and Shine. She is a blonde-haired 10-year-old girl with green eyes who has a genie bottle necklace on her pink shirt, which includes Shimmer and Shine. Leah is warm, caring and thrilled to have secret genies as her best friends! Sensitive to others’ feelings, she does whatever it takes to make the people she cares about happy. Leah is straightforward, honest, and very patient … and thank goodness, because her genies make a lot of mistakes! Her natural instinct is to be calm and to think things through before she acts, so having Shimmer and Shine as her genies keeps her on her toes! Leah has blonde hair held by a pink and blue star clip, and green eyes. She wears a pink shirt with white stars, a light blue skirt, gold and white sneakers and purple striped leggings. She also has the Genie Bottle. In the second season, Leah almost always wears a golden hair tie, a pink hair clip on her head, and a pink/purple genie outfit. Leah appears in every episode of the show.
