You can use Control Color to try counter shading it.

You can use White Balance.

Both are compromises that rarely can fix everything perfect as they affect everything.

I would suggest using Split to take a sampling to "play" with testing which at what settings works best for you and once you are as satisfied as you can be with the sampling settings then apply it to the entire Storyboard.

With White Balance I have usually been happiest with a blended result of a full White Balance Special created Scene mixed 100% with the original version using the Transition Double Exposure set to somewhere near 50% (tweak to desire) with the duration set for the entire duration of the Scene(s).

It is always, always better to properly white balance in camera prior to shooting than trying to fix this in post.

My mom always told me that happiness was the key to life.
At school they asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up.
I said “happy" and they told me I didn’t understand the question.
I told them they didn’t understand life.

Any chance you have CB PAINT? There are multiple colorized menus including a hue wheel.
