Definition
To reduce the saturation of something, typically a color or chemical solution, by making it less intense or pure.
Etymology
From 'de-' (reduce) + 'saturate' (completely filled). Emerged in chemistry and color theory in the 19th-20th centuries to describe the process of dilution or color weakening.
Kelly Says
When you desaturate an image in photo editing, you're literally removing the 'fullness' of color—it's why old photographs look faded, as if time itself has desaturated their vibrant hues.
