The Tiffen Filter Wheel 1 Glimmerglass 1/2 is a dual-function beauty filter: in addition to modifying the appearance of the image itself, it has a sparkling appearance when viewed from the front, inspiring more confidence in the model. The filter helps to soften skin detail, blemishes and wrinkles. It also produces bright highlights and a slight reduction in contrast for a more ethereal look. The 1/2 density provides very slight attenuation and overall image modification.

This filter is manufactured using ColorCore technology, a process that involves laminating the filter substrate between 2 pieces of optical glass and grinding it to a tolerance of 1/10,000th of an inch.
