She is understood to have been wearing a green khaki puffer jacket with a grey scoop neck jumper, black leggings and black and white high-top shoes.
Police say that she also had a black shoulder length leather shoulder bag with a mobile phone and some cash in her possession.
An inspector who released the appeal for information has said that the British Transport Police have also been contacted in case Faith has attempted to leave Leith or the capital.
Inspector Grant McCulloch, of Police Scotland, said: “We have been liaising with bus and taxi companies, as well as colleagues in British Transport Police, in case Faith has travelled out with the Leith area or, indeed the city.
“I am keen to hear from anyone who may know where she is, or who she has been in touch with recently.
“Both we and her family just want her home and so, if you have any information that will help us find her, please call police via 101, quoting reference number 1362 of Tuesday, 27 December 2022.
“We’d also ask Faith herself to return home or speak to police. Everyone just wants to make sure she is safe and well.”
