Glamour magic is sort of the flip side of beauty spells. So, say someone is self-conscious of their teeth. They might try a beauty or appearance spell in hopes of making their teeth whiter or straighter. It simply won't work that way. A glamour, however, is about perception of the person. So, they could cast a glamour with the intent that their teeth appear lovely or that the flaws are not noticed, or simply aren't perceived as a detraction from the person's comely appearance.

One way I look at it is that it works on the way the person projects themselves. They'd (sticking to the teeth example) subconsciously convince themselves that their teeth are not an issue, even though they think they're convincing other people. So, they're not so self-conscious. Their smile can be more genuine and open, rather than guarded. Thus, in a sense, it still works because the person is not letting their own perceived flaws get in the way of being their lovely selves. I'm not saying this is how it works. I've heardclaims of some pretty interesting things, but this is one way.

Glamour magic is an occult practice focused on projecting illusionary interpretations, and is best exercised in correlation with Sorcery or self reflection based practices, since they require the user to understand personal and external psychology.

I think using teeth is a great physical example of how the practice of glamour magic can be manifested, and to play on this further and to throw in a mental example, it could even be extended to general manipulation of perception, whether its teeth, graying hair, or convincing someone that a disability doesn't inhibit you as much as it really does.

Glamour magic has its uses, but as a practice rooted in manipulation, its important that placebos aren't formed, and that you take your own mask off at the end of the day.
