Step 1 – Add Vignette and Grains to create Instagram X-Pro II filter in Lightroom

Let’s add a black vignette to the photo. If you see Instagram filters, almost all of them add a black vignette. And, the Instagram X-Pro II filter is one of them.

Go to Effects > Post-Crop Vignette > Amount and reduce the amount to -51. This will add a black vignette.

Let’s add some noise. Unlike Photoshop which calls the noise as a noise, Lightroom calls the noise as grains.

Go to Effects > Grain > Amount and reduce the amount to 30. This will add some grains.

Step 2 – Add a yellowish gree hue

Let’s add a yellowish-green tone to the photo. We’ll do it using the Split Tone.

Go to the Split Toning section.

Click on the gray rectangle next to the highlight.

Click outside of the box after you choose the color.

Step 3 – Decrease the vibrance to create Instagram X-Pro II filter in Lightroom

Almost all Instagram filters decrease the colors in a photo. Instagram X-Pro II is again one of them. To achieve Instagram X-Pro II in Lightroom, we’re going to decrease the color. But, we’ll do it using the Vibrance slider.

Go to the Basic section.

Reduce the Vibrance to -40.
