There's this type of magic in folklore known as glamour. What the modern word/concept comes from, but I mean in the original sense-- sorcery which creates an illusion. Specifically, of desirability and attractiveness... when the reality is the opposite. Worthless dross made to look valuable (dead leaves disguised as gold coins), ugliness masquerading as beauty (the fairies-- glamour personified-- concealing their true goblin-like appearance behind a facade of gorgeousness).

That sounds like "trans magic", all right.
