1. Download the LUTs pack from the [**My Add-ons**](https://skylum.com/account/my-add-ons?utm_source=support\&utm_medium=organic\&utm_campaign=content) section of your Skylum Account. You can also download the pack from the confirmation email you receive after purchase.
2. **Unzip** the downloaded folder:
   * **Mac:** Double-click to unzip.

3. In Luminar Neo, go to the **Mood** tool → **Choose LUT** → **Add Custom LUT** File.

### 🗑️ Removing LUTs from Luminar Neo

:heavy\_check\_mark:**To remove a Custom LUT:** hover over it and click the **Trash icon** next to the name.

:heavy\_multiplication\_x:**Purchased LUTs** cannot currently be removed directly from within the Luminar Neo interface. However, a **delete option/button** for this category is planned for a future update.

In the meantime, there’s a workaround to remove purchased LUTs manually via system files. While this method can remove LUTs from the program, **we do not recommend it**, as it may lead to unexpected behavior or complications. Proceed only if you're comfortable navigating your system files.

The steps differ depending on your operating system:
