What does the Lime Wash effect change?

Lime Wash lays a lime tint through neutrals and highlights, with luminance-aware blending that keeps local contrast and photographic detail visible. The strength control determines how much of that treatment replaces the unedited appearance.

Which photos work best with Lime Wash?

Choose Lime Wash for product images that need a unified palette, social posts prepared as a coordinated series, or portrait color grading when the source has clear detail and balanced exposure. Start with a lighter setting if it contains severely clipped channels, color-critical documentation, or images where an exact product color must remain unchanged.
