Uses selective coloring, non-translateable.

input: 107 output: 164

oo3. new selective color layer
REDS: -46, 12, 8, -21
YELLOWS: -8, 20, -17, 22
CYANS: 35, 0, 0, 0
WHITES: 3, 0, 0, 20

oo4. new color fill layer, set to softlight 100% #acafb7

oo5. new curves layer, set to softlight (adjust opacity depending on your picture and how contrasty you want it to be.)
Do not change the input or output, just press ok. This step is only to add contrast.

And this is what you should get!
