The Vibrance adjustment allows you to gently change the color saturation of an image. It's useful when you need to increase the intensity of muted colors in a photo and leave the already well-saturated colors.

Select Image -> Adjustment -> Vibrance... to display the adjustment parameters in the Settings Panel.

You can also use the Vibrance adjustment layer (Layers -> New -> Adjustment Layer -> Vibrance...) which will affect all the underlying layers without changing their content.

Parameters:

Vibrance (-100..100). The parameter has a stronger effect on the saturation of all less saturated colors in an image, with a weak effect on well-saturated colors.

Vibrance = -50

Vibrance = 50

Saturation (-100..100). Changes the intensity of all colors in an image. The setting value varies from -100 (black and white) to +100 (very bright colors).

Saturation = -50

Saturation = 50
