Going from:

Translatable.



Begin with base:


Duplicate your base and set the layer to SCREEN (my icon's opacity is at 84%):



Create a new layer filled with #78d7fa and set the layer to (COLOR) BURN 52%:


>

Go to Layer>New Adjustment Layer>COLOR BALANCE, enter in:
MIDTONES: -40, -11, 8
SHADOWS: 3, 5, -7
HIGHLIGHTS: 5, -7, 5



Create ANOTHER COLOR BALANCE layer, enter in:
MIDTONES: -34, -11, 8
SHADOWS: 7, -21, 2
HIGHLIGHTS: 1, 6, 0



Create a new layer filled with #060d27 and set the layer to EXCLUSION:


>

Go to Layer>New Adjustment Layer>BRIGHTNESS/CONTRAST, enter in:
BRIGHTNESS: 2
CONTRAST: 13



Go to Layers>New Adjustment Layer>HUE/SATURATION, enter in:
MASTER: 0, 11, 0
REDS: -7, 9, 0
GREENS: 3, 8, 0
MAGENTAS: 0, 5, 0



And it's done! Not too bad, although it is annoying to have to enter in all these numbers. If it looks too bleh, just mess with the numbers a bit and it will probably look alright. It may come out too bright for some, so just mess with the BRIGHTNESS/CONTRAST layer a bit.

Questions, comments, results, friending... yeah.
