I started with this image of Kristen Stewart (bigger but resized for space issues).  I like working with bigger images so I can worry about cropping later.


Tutorial:

1.  Duplicate your base layer and set the duplicate to screen @ 50% Opacity.  Also run Auto Saturation Enhancement through this later: More Colourful/Strong/Skintones Present Off

2.  New raster layer.  Fill with a Navy Blue colour, I used #0b1b4f.  Set this to 40% Opacity and Exclusion.

3.  New raster layer.  Fill with a Dark Red/Marone colour, I used #400000.  Set this to 100% Opacity and Exclusion.

4.  New raster layer.  Fill with a Coral colour, I used #fadba5.  Set this to 40% Opacity and Burn.

5.  Merge all.

6.  Sharpen your image once and then add the Unsharp Mask option x2 (Adjust - Sharpness - Unsharp Mask).  Settings= R: 60 / S: 10 / C: 0

7.  I then copied the finished image onto a new 100x100 image and resized until it was how I wanted it!

NOTE:  Edit the steps according to what works best for your image.
