That doesn ' t really work plus it ' s far more cumbersome . Instead of trying to make precise color masks which allow for a lot more errors , it ' s much better to just try to use a good order of operations to incrementally move the colors in the direction you want . That way you could just group the layers and drag it to every image from that set without having to redo your masks . Or if you do have any masks , they ' d be done very looselyfeathered and have a lot more room for error than a color range mask . For instance if those leaves were green originally and I wanted them purple , I might follow these steps Use selective color to increase color contrast between skin tone and leaves . Essentially I want those leaves to be pure green and not yellow green . This will make it much easier for the tools to select later . Use another selective color to shift the green leaves to more cyan . Cyan is about the opposite of the skin tones so that creates a bit more color contrast for photoshops tools to grab . One more selective color to shift those cyans a bit more blue . Lastly a huesat adjusting blues to purpleThe only mask that might have to be made is roughly masking out her eyes . In DaVinci Resolve this would be way easier as you have color curves and much better color range selection tools
