prepare your base

firstly duplicate it and set the layer to softlight at 100%
however! some images may not need this step and others may need the oppacity lowerd.


make a new curves layer.
new point
RBG: input: 75, output: 130


make a new layer and fill this with a light grey.
I used #C0C0C0 set this layer to multiply at 100%


make a channel mixer layer, setting:
Red: 131, -68, 0
Blue: -40, 103, 100


now make a copy of all the current layers, copy merged and paste it ontop set it to soft light 100%


finally duplicate the previous layer and set it on screen 100%


(this layer is optional, I used it on this icon but didn't on others)
duplicate the curves layer, bring it to the top and adjust the opacity (mine is on 40%)


hope the tutorial works for you!
comments are loved :D
