"Colours on Camera"
Love you, too
You can change them in post, as suggested. This is so easy in digital.
Or the colour 'temperature' (measured in degrees Kelvin) you shoot in will also affect the outcome (eg daylight or artificial light). Studio/video lights have either a fixed or adjustable value as the light ranges crudely from yellow (warm) to (cold) blue. Objects/background colours reflecting light have a massive effect.
Stronger original tints will help, also as suggested. (Magenta poster paint!)
[Edit:] There, I fixed it! (See picture)
The colour in the cream was a little incipid and possibly not fully incorporated into the mixture judging by the more intense areas of colour it's picked up stuck to the side of the bowl.

Remember that the camera sensors aren't the same as your eyes and that the lighting you use will also affect this.
If you have a light source that has a discontinuous spectrum (e.g. LED or gas discharge lights), it will be particularly problematic if the spikes in the emission spectra of the light source don't coincide with the sensitive wavelengths of the sensor.
This causes huge problems for TV and even the traditional Colour Rendering Index traditionally used for providing an indication in architectural lighting is insufficient to describe the effect, as it's still intended for 'consumption' by the mark 1 human eyeball, rather than camera sensors!
That's why the EBU introduced the Television Lighting Consistency Index based on work done by Alan Roberts which he started before he retired from BBC Research & Development: http://www.gtc.org.uk/media/fm/Zerb%20articles/TLCI_web.pdf

I have the hardest time making purple slime and gunge. Yes I can change it post production, but even then I've found it to come out often grey and dull even if it looks good to me in person. (I'll also add my editing skills are only so so). Of all the colors, purple has for sure been my most challenging one
I feel like purple is notoriously difficult to have read well on camera. Try messing with the different settings on your iPhone when you click "edit" on the picture. Specifically saturation, vibrance, warmth, and tint. See if fiddling with those helps get you closer to your desired look.
Much love

Yeah the other colours pink etc came out fine so will have to experiment make a pink heavy purple maybe. Your slime always looks so colourful so glad to hear someone as experienced as you has the same issue. Although would prefer neither of us did lol.

Yeah tried all that. You are again someone who has made scenes with great vibrant colours and the help is amazing and appreciated
I took to using non-toxic tempera/poster paints to colour everything from pie fillings, batter, gunge, clay etc. and found it so much more effective than food colours (certainly the ones available at the time). Ideally in powder form (for either oil based mixtures like grease or water based oatmeal/batter food mixtures) or in ready mixed 5 litre cans. Luminous colours are also available.
I've attached 3 unaltered camera original screens (same camera, different models and light sources). The paint used to dye the purple substances in all cases over 3 years was from the same 5 litre can of 'purple' poster paint. It was extremely vivid and usually only a small amount was required as a tint so I rarely used it neat.
Picture 1 (Studio, 3 softbox video lights) Mixture: flour, margarine, eggs & 'purple' (Ratio: 1/1/1/6).
Picture 2 Daylight (North) Mixtures: Paint - flour, oil, 'purple' (Ratio: 1/1/6). Pie - flour and margarine (Ratio: 1/1) with a weak tint, long-life double cream topping. My then girlfriend had only just had her hair lightened the day before so I made a very weak pie filling - but it still shows up.
Picture 3 Studio, 2 LED video lights set at 5600k Mixture: Kaolin (clay) whitewash and 'purple' (Ratio: 20/1 you can see on top of Satine's head that I didn't mix it properly)

This is super helpful do you have links to the paints. Ideally smaller than 5l though

I'm going to write some blogs about this stuff so I don't have to bore people in forum posts every time
The manufacturers are reducing their ready mixed sizes now and a lot of these are old stock so 5 litres is only about £2 more than 500ml. But the dyes in the blue and purple are outstanding and incorporated into a solution so they won't stain skin or natural hair. Concentrated mixtures WILL stain bleached hair and most clothing irreversibly if used undiluted.
