What is Glamour?
Glamour is an attractive illusion. Anything can be glamour as long as it is alluring. The purpose of glamour is to draw people in. It's not the same thing as lying though. Sometimes it's just dressing up the truth to make it seem prettier. Keeping up appearances of perfection by not letting on that you're struggling emotionally while going through a breakup is a great way to make people think that you have your love life altogether, for example. Glamour is designed to fascinate, tantalize, and attract people to you. It makes you seem exciting and admirable, and makes people want to be near you. It doesn't create a false image exactly, but an enhanced one. One Zodiac sign that is fascinated with beauty is Libra and you can read about them here: Libra Traits | Star Sign in the Spotlight
What is Glamour Magic?
Glamour magic is any magical operation that you use to make yourself more enticing, alluring, or somehow attractive. It's just influencing other people to perceive you the way that you want them to. It can alter appearances and therefore influence how people perceive you and can be used to endear people to you or to get them to do what you want. Sometimes this is done by artificially enhancing beauty and other times it's done by projecting radical confidence. It doesn’t change reality. It manipulates people's perception of it.
Glamour isn't just designed to make you look good. It's designed to get responses from people that are favorable to you. It can entail positive affirmations and using the right words to make people do the things you want. Some people think that spells take a long time in order to be effective but the truth is you don't even have to use a spell to use glamour magic. You can just walk in the room with the right attitude and people will automatically be drawn to you. Read about how to begin candle magic here: Beginning Candle Magic
Why Bother with Appearances?
What's the point of creating an illusion to begin with? It's to convince somebody of something. If you're fighting with your significant other and you don't want anybody to know, you can always pretend that everything is fine. If you're struggling with serious debt and you don't want people to know about it, there are ways to make it seem that you have more wealth than you do. If you're struggling with confidence, you can pretend to be confident even though you're panicking on the inside.
People react to what they believe is happening. If you would get an unfavorable reaction from people for something, creating an illusion of something that they would like can make them have a better reaction to you. It can also do things like help to keep the peace. Magic is all about moving energy in conformity with your will to meet goals. If creating an illusion will help you meet that goal, that is the purpose of creating appearances and illusions. Even a little white lie can be glamour magic, but is it ever ok to do that?

Shouldn’t I Keep it Real?
Some people take pride in the fact that they are always honest. What good is it going to do to tell your neighbor that you think she's ugly? What good will it do to tell someone you don't want to date that you think they have bad breath? What good will it do to tell your coworker that you hate them? It would be far better to respond to the question from your so-called ugly neighbor of “How do I look?” with, “You look sharp and professional.” It would be far better to tell the person you don't want to date that you don't think your personalities are compatible. It would be far better to tell your co-worker that you keep your personal life separate from your professional relationships than to tell them you hate them.
There is a time to be blunt about personal weaknesses, and a time to make them look like strengths. When you are applying for a course of study before your school loans have been approved, don’t tell admissions that. Project confidence that the funding will come through and if it doesn't, you can deal with it when that happens. If you're still getting over heartbreak, but are making new friends, not discussing what's happening might be best for new relationships. Revealing everything that is happening to everybody who you meet can make them very uncomfortable or feel imposed upon, so sometimes creating a respectful illusion instead of keeping it real is the best course of action.

How to Use Glamour Magic
If you agree that glamour magic is important, this next section shares some easy, foolproof ways to use glamour magic on the job, in your personal communities, and in your own relationships. Simple things like praising people who you don't think deserve that much praise, keeping the peace, and controlling your personal availability will create appearances that will benefit you.
On The Job
Creating appearances at work is very important. To get ahead in business, you have to promote yourself well, and sometimes that means bragging. You also need to take opportunities to brag about other people, even if you feel like they could improve in some areas. Finally, you have to find a way to get along with people who you cannot stand, even if you have to pretend that you like them.
Toot Your Horn
Most of us are painfully aware of our imperfections. There's nothing wrong with admitting that you've made a mistake or need some help. However, if you lack too much confidence at work, people are not going to have any faith in you. Especially if you're new to your career, be proud of all that you do, and promote yourself. Proudly state the things that you do well. If you are always on time, and administration says they will reward punctuality, go ahead and tell your coworker who is always late that you're glad your employer is rewarding you for always being on time.
Praise Others
Don't take all the credit for everything at work. Most especially, create an illusion of being an advocate for all of your coworkers or employees by praising people who aren't the best employees on the team. The person who underperforms but somehow manages to keep their job will appreciate it if you mention how well organized their desk always is. When you have to give somebody criticism, focus on something they do well first. For example, if someone has not met their sales goal for the quarter, remind them that they always gone above and beyond before, so you know they can do it again. If people feel like you're on their side, they're more likely to be on your side. Other people at work matter, but sometimes their opinions don’t, or do they?

Get Along With Jerks
Fights in the workplace reduce productivity, compromise team cohesion, and make people look bad. Don't be one of the people who looks bad because you can't get along with people. If it gets on someone's nerves when you close the door loudly, close the door quietly. If someone eats all the candy on your desk, buy more. If someone loves to gossip and you can't stand to listen to it, quietly make yourself unavailable instead of telling them to shut up. Even the biggest jerks at work can do you favors if they think that they get along with you.
In Your Community
The general public is a place where glamour can be beneficial to you as well. Be friendly to everybody but control how available you are to people. This will help people to respect your boundaries, and make sure to respect theirs.
Pretend to Be Friendly
You worked hard all week and you just want to sit on the porch and relax. That annoying neighbor keeps coming over to talk to you and you just want to be left alone. Instead of telling them to buzz off, pretend that you really want to talk to them, but you can only visit for a short time because you have a long distance phone call to make. Tell them that you would like them to come to dinner next week sometime, then go inside to some peace and quiet. Next time your car breaks down, they will probably be the first one to volunteer to drive you someplace. Keeping up the appearance of neighborliness will make people be neighborly to you.

Control Your Availability
Don't be overly available to people or it will give them the impression that they have full access to you. Instead of yelling at people for knocking on your door at a time you don't want them to, just don't answer the door. Instead of volunteering for every neighborhood picnic, be the first to volunteer only for things that you want to and then don't volunteer for anything else. Don't let people talk you into things that you don't want to do. This will create the impression that you want to be involved, but it won't make people think that you want to be involved with everything.
Respect Boundaries
Don't overstep your boundaries in your community either. Don't play your music loud early in the morning. Don't blow snow from your yard into your neighbor's yard. Don't let your dog bark all hours of the night. Don't gossip about neighbors. In your community, if you want people to treat you well, treat them well first and most people will respond in kind.

In Your Personal life
Your personal life can be trickier to work glamour magic in because people know you too well to fall for illusions- or do they? Keep the peace with a brawling family member even if you don’t want to, keep quiet when you are called to a fight, and be the first to reach out to mend bridges even if someone else burned the bridge to begin with.
Keep Family Peace
We all have that one family member we pray won’t attend the family gathering, except they always do. You just can’t stand them and you never miss an opportunity to correct everything they say and do wrong. This isn’t the best way to keep the peace at a family gathering, though, and your family might be counting on you to make things bearable. Chances are, everybody else agrees with you, but your annoying family member is not going to stop acting the way they do. So, cast the illusion that they don’t bother you. Act like you are genuinely happy to see them, ignore their frustrating behavior, and focus on enjoying a peaceful day with your adoring family.
Say Less
When your significant other tries to pick a fight, don’t be drawn in. Even if they're not picking a fight, there may be some things that you would like to say but you know better than to. If you want to tell her that yes indeed those jeans do make her look fat, you better not. Simply tell her you like the other pair better because it accentuates her curves. If you share every opinion you have, people are going to get sick of hearing from you, so learn to keep some things to yourself in your relationships. Learn when to be quiet here: When to Be Silent
Reach Out First
It's not easy to be the one to reach out to make peace especially if somebody else is at fault. If the relationship is important to you, do it anyway. You don't have to say that they didn't do anything wrong. You don't have to say that you will tolerate what they did ever again. Keep that to yourself. Work on creating peace and mending the relationship first, and later you can address the offensive behavior.
Some people think glamour magic is dishonest, but it creates the honest reaction you're looking for. All you have to do is control the illusion that you want people to believe, and you will get the result you want. You can do that by praising underperforming coworkers, refusing to be overly available in your community, and not escalating what could be a sticky situation in a relationship by being quiet. Glamour magic as a simple way to use your magic to create the life that you want. So, use it. It’s honest magic.
