a cleansing ritual does not have to be complicated! this ritual is intended to be as simple or complex as you desire. at its core, it is all about visualization- add herbs, scents, and portions of your routine as you see fit.
what you will need:
your shower, of course
whatever shower items you want to use (shampoo, conditioner, body wash, shower oil, so on. this is YOUR ritual, you can make this as involved or laid-back as you want)
optional: an herb sachet, a shower steamer, candles, crystals (be certain your crystals are safe to have in/around water!)
the ritual:
make your water temperature comfortable, whether you love your showers hot, cold, lukewarm. whatever will make you feel most comfortable. if you are choosing to use a shower steamer, herb sachet, candles, etc, make sure you place these in appropriate places; I often hang a sachet of herbs that align with my intentions from my shower head and let the steam do the heavy lifting.
stand under the water spray and close your eyes. envision the water running down your body, picturing it washing away what you wish to release. every droplet that trickles down your body catches those bits of negative energy, exhaustion, stress, and sends it all down the drain.
begin your shower routine, whatever that may be for this ritual. with each step, continue to envision that every drop of water, every bubble of soap, every granule of scrub latches onto whatever is bogging you down. let the negativity cling to your cleansers, rinsing away under the water, and feel as a weight is lifted with each step.
as you wash away the negativity, welcome in what you wish to see manifest in your life. self-love, joy, abundance, and so on. as you welcome these things in, envision yourself being enveloped in a warm glow; we want to imagine ourselves purified from everything we just released.
when you've finished your shower, as you towel off, finish off with some form of protection. I typically envision that glow entering my body, locking in what I manifest and repelling that which I wish to release. you can also follow up with your skincare, seeing any lotions, oils, and so on as protective barriers against what you wish to keep away.
self-care and magic are very entwined for so many of us. everyday rituals like this can really help you to heal and manifest the life you desire.
Glamour Magic: The Art of Becoming Who You Already Are
The Witchy Intention Blog | A Trusted Grimoire for the Modern Magical Path
Glamour magic isn’t just about beauty.
It’s not about being the “hottest witch in the room” (though you absolutely can be).
It’s about transformation.
Not into someone else—but into a more intentional, visible, and powerful version of yourself.
It’s the spell of perception.
The ritual of self-reclamation.
The quiet shimmer of knowing exactly who you are and letting the world feel it before you even speak.
It’s walking through the veil with lipstick, perfume, or none of the above—and still casting a spell that changes the room.
🪞 What Is Glamour Magic, Really?
Glamour is not just how you look.
It’s how you’re received.
It’s the feeling someone gets when they meet your eyes and suddenly can’t look away.
It’s the shift in the air when you enter a space, whether dressed like a goddess or cloaked like smoke.
It’s not just costume. It’s intention woven through presentation.
Glamour magic is:
Speaking with power in your voice and silk in your cadence
Enchanting your reflection until it reflects truth, not insecurity
Casting visibility spells with red lipstick or a veil of fog
Wearing colors, stones, scents, or sigils that say something without needing to explain
Think of it like magical theater, but the mask reveals more than it hides.
You’re not becoming something false.
You’re amplifying the frequency of your magic so others can feel it—and you can believe it.
🧙♀️ Where Did Glamour Magic Come From?
The word glamour comes from old Scottish lore, where it meant a magical illusion—a fae trick of the eye.
Something beautiful, beguiling, a little dangerous.
Witches in myth enchanted their appearances to seduce, vanish, or protect.
Spirits appeared cloaked in grandeur or terror depending on who they needed to impress.
In ancient rites, kings and queens wore symbolic regalia not to flaunt status—but to embody power.
In folk magic and Hoodoo, glamour lives in mirror spells, confidence oils, attraction charms, and sugar jars full of intention.
Glamour has always been a sacred tool. A spell of presence, not pretense.
❌ What Glamour Magic Is Not
Let’s bust some myths while we’re here:
🚫 It’s not just for femme witches
🚫 It’s not shallow or vain
🚫 It’s not about pretending to be someone you’re not
🚫 It’s definitely not just about looking “hot” (though, again—you might)
✨ Glamour magic is energy work.
It’s charisma sorcery. Aura architecture.
It’s putting on your power like armor—or slipping through shadows like mist.
It can be loud or quiet, soft or sharp, golden or ghostly.
Sometimes it says, “See me.”
Sometimes it whispers, “Forget I was ever here.”
You’re more magical than you think. Glamour’s already in your bones.
Here’s what it looks like in real life:
Putting on enchanted perfume and whispering your intention at your pulse points
Wearing a ring you’ve charged to make you feel bold, beautiful, or untouchable
Stirring honey into your tea before a date and saying, “May I be sweet and remembered”
Dressing like your higher self—even if it’s just a different pair of socks
Drawing a sigil in your mirror fog that makes you feel seen
Walking with your shoulders back like the energy behind you is a crown
It doesn’t have to be dramatic.
But it should be intentional.
💋 Quick Spell: Lip Gloss of Command
A fast enchantment for clarity, confidence, and charm when speaking
You’ll need:
Your favorite lip gloss, lipstick, or balm
A mirror
Your voice
Chant while applying:
“On lips I place this velvet charm,
Let my words enchant, disarm.
Power flows through tone and grace,
My truth is heard in every space.”
Hold your gaze in the mirror. Speak your name like a spell.
Then go out and speak like you mean it.
🌙 Who Are You Becoming Today?
Every glamour spell begins with a question:
What version of me do I need to embody right now?
Choose your archetype. Dress the part. Cast the spell.
🪞 Glamour Archetypes:
The Siren – magnetic, sultry, unreachable
The Oracle – wise, mysterious, cloaked in insight
The Healer – soft-spoken, grounded, luminous
The Shadow – veiled, invisible, protected
The Warrior – direct, bold, unshakeable
The Star – radiant, unforgettable, center-stage
The Mirror – clear, reflective, impossible to pin down
Each one is real. Each one is you.
You’re not faking anything. You’re summoning it.
🕯️ Final Thoughts: Glamour Is a Spell of Self-Love
Let’s make this clear:
✨ Glamour magic is for you first.
Before anyone else sees it, you should feel it.
Before it enchants the room, it should anchor you in your body.
To choose how you are perceived is an act of sovereignty.
To reclaim your image is radical magic.
To look in the mirror and see not a flaw to fix, but a spell to cast? That’s everything.
Whether you sparkle or hide, strut or slink—
If you’re doing it with intention?
That’s glamour. And baby, it’s working.
🔮 Stay radiant. Stay mysterious. Stay magic.
Blessed be the mask.
Blessed be the mirror.
Blessed be the truth beneath them both.

I wanted to share a quick post about how to lock your mirrors as personally I see it as a necessary protective practice, especially if you're involving yourself with mirror magic or glamour magic.
As my usual disclaimer, this is simply my knowledge and my teachings that I've come across & developed through research, speaking with others, cultural teachings, etc. However, everyone has the right to believe what they like, I just hope this serves as beneficial to some of you somehow, whether it be providing information you resonate with or just teaching you something cool.
And as my usual reminder to any beginner or baby witch... MAKE SURE YOU HAVE THOROUGH PROTECTIONS!
Comment any questions :D
The Important Info
1. Cleanse your mirror (& stake claim to your mirror if that's in your practice as well; recommended)
2. Walk up to your mirror (of course)
3. Put your hand up to the mirror like you're holding a key
4. Turn your hand (“turn the key”), “locking” the mirror
5. Speak out loud “I am locking this mirror. Nothing may pass through this mirror. It is not a usable or working portal.”
6. Tell the beings behind the mirror to go away, ignore their reaction and wait for them to leave (99% chance they'll leave after a bit), AND DON’T ENTER THE MIRROR REALM

Will anything ever bring us as much joy and comedic bliss as the reveal of Jason Mendoza? Will I ever feel as alive as I did in that moment when Jason utters the words "heaven is so racist"? Will there ever be a moment in time that slaps me so hard in the face with surprise as the moment Jianu the monk rapidly turns into Jason the Jacksonville dirtbag? Will we as a society ever capture that kind of magic again?
