    Try a warming filter, see the image, you get the idea. High intensity lights invariably have over-blue as they go for intensity rather than usefulness, since more lumens sell better.

    This guy gets a warming filter sheet, you can see about the light orange-brown / sienna / ocre colour you need as you scrounge around.



    One hack is to use an orange or pink highlighter pen on the lens, but it does not stay on when wet. You can however cover the lens with sellotape, use the highlighter on that surface, then let it dry and "lock it in" with another layer of sellotape.
