Hmm... The only one that's immediately obvious to me is Glam's: believability (things they create are obviously real and do what they say they do) and belief (the aura counts as if Glam believed something they want to).

Maybe some sort of protection-from-squinting?

Dusks (or at least Rescue) get an aura of, not exactly comprehensibility, but sort of nudging your attention toward what they're paying attention to. Which is more or less the same thing as comprehensibility, in a lot of cases.

Sapphires get an aura of professionalism: everything around them behaves the way it's supposed to, darn it, so they can do their jobs already. Computers don't have inexplicable bugs, clocks run exactly on time, pianos are in tune. If they bake a cake and follow the recipe, it'll turn out exactly like the recipe says, not fall for whatever reason.

Jeans get an aura of ... normalcy? You look at them and go "are they supposed to be there? Of course they're supposed to be there. They belong." So they can walk right into restricted areas and everyone will assume they're supposed to, or go to a foreign country and look like a local. They won't stand out in a crowd, like, ever.

I feel like Realist and Sapphire auras would get along smashingly until suddenly they didn't.

Props could have a generic good-at-Inlustrem-magic or metamagic boost, because Sadde. Plus some sort of mental protection thing (because mindflayers)

Wix!Sadde could get "wand aura" that stored her wand and/or replaced it. Maybe something Alchemy/Potion related as well.

Sparkles vampirice self-control, if we consider The Lost Key, maybe something similar to Tab's teleportation guidance.

Don't know enough about Octarine, Change and Sunny!Sadde yet.

Mountain/Steel's aura is 'this is a person who will be here in ten thousand years' and 'STOP FIGHTING/Let's All Work Together' depending on mood.

... If the Shadows had auras, they would be the worst things ever. They would essentially be zones of perpetual annoyance.
