The so called Glamour effect is basically just achieved by using a using a blur with and some fancy layer mixing... Not sure if X2 has this but in Photoshop, I achieve this look via the following steps:
1. Open photo - choose a photo that has some bright overexposed spots on the face
2. Duplicate the layer
3. Add a Gaussian Blur (about 10px or so)
4. Set the layer blending mode to Color Dodge
5. Set your Fill in the layer to about 70%... you'll need to play with this value.
There you go... quick easy Glam... I have an action that does this and I just tweak the fill layer value to get the right look. Also, you may need to add a mask to brush back in some of the detail (remove the blur) with a soft brush set to 10% opacity or so...
Good Luck!
