Installing & Applying Luminar Looks

These steps work for Luminar versions 4 and older.

Some of the presets in the Nicolesy Store will contain Luminar looks files (.mplumpack). Installing these files into Luminar is easy!

Use these steps to install your presets:

1. Download and unzip your new files (as needed) using the download link you received when you placed your order.
2. Use one of the following methods to install the presets:
• Drag the .mplumpack file over the Luminar application icon. The preset pack will install automatically.
• Right-click on the .mplumpack file and select the appropriate version of Luminar to install into. (Note: .mplumpack files will only work in Luminar 4 and older versions.)
• Open Luminar and go to File > Add Custom Looks Collection, and navigate to your .mplumpack file.
3. Access your new presets by opening Luminar, and then click on the preset category selector on the bottom of the window. Next, click on the preset pack name to activate it.

Note: Sometimes double-clicking the .mplumpack file will result in the presets being installed to an older version of the software. It's a good idea to drag/drop the file over the application icon to ensure it goes into the proper version.

Use these steps to apply a look to your photo:

1. Access the Luminar Looks pop-up at the bottom of the window. If you don't see this section, go to View > Hide/Show Looks panel.
2. Click the looks pop-up and select a collection.
3. In the filmstrip at the bottom of the window, click a look to apply it to your photo.
