Match the color of two layers in the same image

1

(Optional) Make a selection in the layer you want to match. This is useful when matching a color region (for

example, facial skin tones) in one layer with a region in another.

If you don’t make a selection, then the Match Color matches the colors of the entire source layer.

2

Make sure the layer you want to target (apply the color adjustment to) is active, and then choose Image >

Adjustments > Match Color.

3

From the Source menu in the Image Statistics area of the Match Color dialog box, make sure that the image in the

Source menu is the same as the target image.

4

Use the Layer menu to choose the layer whose colors you want to match. You can also choose Merged from the

Layer menu to match the colors from all the layers.

5

If you made a selection in the image, do one or more of the following:

In the Destination Image area, select Ignore Selection When Applying Adjustment if you’re applying the
adjustment to the entire target layer. This option ignores the selection in the target layer and applies the adjustment
to the entire target layer.

In the Image Statistics area, select Use Selection In Source To Calculate Colors if you made a selection in the source
image and want to use the color in the selection to compute the adjustment. Deselect this option to ignore the
selection in the source layer and use the colors in the entire source layer to compute the adjustment.

In the Image Statistics area, select Use Selection In Target To Calculate Adjustment if you want to use only the
colors in the selected area of the target layer to compute the adjustment. Deselect this option to ignore the selection
and use the colors of the entire target layer to compute the adjustment.

To automatically remove a color cast in the target layer, Select the Neutralize option. Make sure the Preview option

is selected so that your image is updated as you make adjustments.
