* ''Fanfic/VowOfNudity'': Kay'la uses a glamour prism to hide her armor so she can claim to be "the world's first naked knight" while actually fully-protected in plate mail. Seducing, distracting, or unnerving her opponent with her 'nudity' is a regular trick in her playbook.

* In ''WesternAnimation/TheOwlHouse'', Edric and Emira Blight both use Concealment Stones to appear more well groomed than they actually are. They can also be used to take on another person's appearance, but to do so, you need to use them to scan said person you're trying to impersonate.

* One ''ComicBook/Superman'' story would reveal that ClarkKenting works because he's always putting out low-level hypnotism to push people to believe there are physical differences when Clark is in disguise or not. Superman discovers this when he actively hypnotizes people into resisting further hypnotic suggestions to thwart a villain, and suddenly everyone sees him as Superman wearing Clark's clothes.

* In ''Literature/{{Pact}}'', the fair folk make heavy use of this, a substance that they use to create objects that appear perfectly real, influence others, and change their shape, but which can be broken by crudity. It's suggested that, as glamour is inherently deceptive, the fair folk have even fooled themselves--they may well be simply magicians who have lied to themselves so well that they can't remember ever being human.

* ''VideoGame/VermintideII'': {{Discussed|Trope}} regarding a painting of a [[OurSuccubiAreDifferent Daemonette]] of Slaanesh, Chaos God of Desire:

* The personification of [[SevenDeadlySins Lust]] in ''Webcomic/{{Widdershins}}'' has a magnetic personality with a supernatural edge that blurs the line between TheCharmer and this trope.
--> '''Henry''': Bloody hell, I got out-flirted by a two-hundred-year-old dead bloke?

* "The Thnikkaman" (AKA Bubs with sunglasses) in a few [[WebAnimation/HomestarRunner Strong Bad E-Mails]]. His very appearence, whilst doing nothing impressive, can pretty much lead to both character and plot derailment due to characters fawning over him. Did we mention that his CatchPhrase, which no one seems to mind, is "yeah, shut up kid"?

Characters with this power become the center of attention. Anyone who looks at the character will suffer effects similar to LoveIsInTheAir: they'll consider the character to be flawlessly beautiful, smart, funny, and fall over themselves to do whatever the character says.[[note]]Even if the character in question is hideous, dressed in rags, covered in garbage, clumsy, and has the IQ of room temperature... in Celsius![[/note]] While this isn't direct MindControl or a CharmPerson, it does affect people psychically by making them want to help the character. Sort of a cross between MassHypnosis and TheCharmer. While weak glamours or strong willed characters probably won't do unethical things or that go against their interests, they ''will'' act at least slightly [[OutOfCharacterMoment out of character]] while under its effects: disliking the character will seem unnatural, arguing against them impossible, and attacking the character would be like committing blasphemy. When it's a powerful glamour (or a WeakWilled victim) victims won't hesitate to obey any of the character's whims.
