Honest color. Polished portraits. Timeless results.
Your search for the perfect true-color edit ends here. Luxe Pure Color takes a clean, heartfelt approach to portrait editing, helping you achieve professional impact while preserving the colors that make each subject and setting unique.
Designed for a wide variety of lighting, environmental, and atmospheric conditions, Pure Color helps you create balanced edits across everything from rich, deep skin tones to softly glowing portraits surrounded by natural elements.
Start with clean, confident color
Build your edit with 20 global presets thoughtfully tuned for color accuracy, flattering light, and natural dimension. The collection includes luminous, neutral, softly radiant, richly defined, and gently stylized finishes that enhance the complete image without overpowering its original palette.
Quick preparation options help establish a balanced starting point, while specialized looks account for the changing color and light found across indoor, outdoor, shaded, backlit, and naturally colorful portrait settings.
Fine-tune without sacrificing color integrity
Layer 18 AI-powered and creative tools over your chosen preset to correct haze, balance highlights and whites, cool shadows, suppress noise, refine skin, shift specific color families, or introduce warmth and subtle grain. These targeted tools make it easy to add depth and polish without rebuilding your edit from scratch.
Add another dimension with Creative Profiles
Pure Color also introduces eight optional Luxe Creative Profiles designed to add depth, harmony, warmth, contrast, or stylized color beneath your editing adjustments. Use them to establish a distinctive foundation for your edit, combine them with the included presets and tools, or leave them out entirely—the core Pure Color workflow does not depend on profiles.
Detailed portrait control when you want it
Lightroom Classic users receive 20 Local Adjustment Brushes for hands-on enhancements to skin, eyes, teeth, hair, color, texture, highlights, background softness, and vignettes. A 30-page PDF User Guide is also included to help you understand the collection and develop your own Pure Color workflow.
Before you begin
Creative Profiles install alongside the presets in compatible desktop software. They can be synced to the Lightroom mobile app from Lightroom on desktop or imported directly into Lightroom Mobile on Android. Direct profile import is not supported in the Lightroom app on iOS, but profiles may be synced from desktop for use on iOS. The profiles are optional and are not required to use the global presets or effects tools.
On mobile, AI-powered presets and effects require the Premium paid Lightroom app on a compatible Android or newer iOS device. Local Adjustment Brushes are designed for Lightroom Classic on desktop only.
