"I kept getting 'not as described' complaints because my navy blazer looked black in photos and my burgundy bag looked brown. Color correction fixed both. Zero color complaints since." @AccurateColorSeller

How to AI Vinted Color Accuracy Editor
-
Identify the color problem
Compare your photo to the actual item. Is it too yellow? Too blue? Too dark? Hold the item next to your screen to see the difference. Common culprits: incandescent bulbs (yellow), fluorescent tubes (green), LED strips (blue), and dim lighting (too dark to show color).
Color correction: 15 seconds. With background swap: 25 seconds.The best reference is natural daylight near a window - compare your photo to how the item looks there. -
Upload and describe the color fix
Drop your photo into EditThisPic and describe: 'correct the yellow lighting to show true color' or 'fix white balance for accurate fabric color.' Be specific about what's wrong - yellow cast, too blue, too dark, etc.
Name the color cast: 'remove yellow cast' is more specific and effective than just 'fix color' -
Compare with the real item
Hold the actual item next to your screen showing the corrected photo. Do the colors match? The corrected photo should look like the item does in natural daylight. If not, try adjusting your prompt.
Compare in natural daylight near a window for the most accurate assessment. -
Download for your listing
Save your color-accurate photo and upload to Vinted. Mention accurate color in your description: 'Photos taken in natural light, colors are accurate to the real item.' This builds buyer confidence and reduces return risk.
Process all your listings through the same color correction for consistent, trustworthy presentation.
Copy-Paste Prompts for Color Accuracy
correct the yellow indoor lighting cast to show the true, natural color of this item accurately
Yellow is the most common color cast from incandescent and warm LED bulbs
correct the color so this navy blue item shows its true navy color, not black
Dark navy often photographs as black - correction reveals the true blue tone
restore the true color depth and vibrancy, the lighting made everything look washed out and pale
Dim lighting strips color depth - restoration brings back the richness
fix the white balance to show neutral, accurate colors, any white parts should look true white
If white parts look yellow or blue, white balance is off - fixing it corrects all colors
Show 4 more prompts
remove the green color cast from fluorescent lighting, show true natural colors
Office and bathroom fluorescent lights create a sickly green cast on everything
correct the color to show true burgundy/wine, not brown or red, show the actual deep color
Burgundy is commonly misrepresented - correct to show the specific rich tone
correct the mixed lighting that creates uneven colors across the item, show uniform true color
Mixed light sources (daylight + lamp) create different color casts on different parts of the item
correct colors to show the print pattern colors accurately, each color in the pattern should be true
Multi-color prints are especially affected by color casts - each color gets distorted differently

Real Examples

correct the warm lighting to show the true navy blue color, this is not a black blazer
Burgundy bag looking brown

correct the color to show true burgundy/wine color, remove the yellow cast making it look brown
White shirt looking yellow

fix white balance to show this is a true white shirt, remove the warm yellow cast completely
When Things Go Wrong
Color correction went too far in the opposite direction
Why: The AI overcompensated, pushing a yellow-cast photo too far toward blue.
If colors overcorrected, try a softer prompt: 'slightly correct the warm cast' instead of aggressive correction.
Some colors in a print look accurate but others don't
Why: Mixed color patterns react differently to color correction - fixing one can distort another.
correct overall white balance first, then: adjust to show all print colors naturally
Fix white balance first (based on whites or neutrals in the photo) - this corrects all colors proportionally.
Colors look accurate on my screen but too saturated on phone
Why: Different screens display colors differently, and the correction may be too aggressive for some devices.
Slightly under-saturated is safer than over-saturated. The item should look natural, not neon.
Dark colors all look the same shade after correction
Why: Color correction can't add color detail that wasn't captured in the original dark photo.
Brighten the photo first so the AI has more color information to work with, then correct.
Metallic or shiny surfaces look wrong after color correction
Why: Reflective surfaces pick up surrounding colors, and correction can make them look unnatural.
Specify that you want fabric corrected while leaving metallic elements natural.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why do my Vinted photos have wrong colors?
Indoor lighting is the main culprit. Incandescent bulbs create yellow casts, fluorescent lights create green, and LED strips can add blue. Your phone camera tries to compensate but often gets it wrong. EditThisPic corrects these casts to show true colors that match what buyers will receive.
How do I know if my colors are accurate?
Compare your photo to the actual item in natural daylight near a window. If the photo looks yellower, bluer, or more washed out than the real item, the colors are off. After correction with EditThisPic, do the same comparison - the corrected photo should match the daylight appearance.
Will color correction reduce my returns?
Yes. Color inaccuracy is one of the top reasons for 'not as described' returns. When buyers receive items that match the listing photos exactly, they're satisfied. Accurate color photos build trust and reduce disputes significantly.
Should I photograph in natural light instead of correcting?
Natural daylight gives the most accurate starting point, but it's not always available (evening listings, winter, no good windows). EditThisPic corrects indoor lighting so you can photograph anytime. Ideally, use daylight when possible and correct when not.
Can I fix colors on a photo that's already dark?
Yes, but brighten first, then correct color. Dark photos lack color information, so brightening first reveals more color detail for the AI to work with. Two-step process: brighten, then color correct.
Is there a free color correction tool for Vinted photos?
Yes, EditThisPic is free to try with no account required. Upload your photo, describe the color problem, download the corrected result. No watermarks. Perfect for ensuring accurate colors across all your Vinted listings.
