40 Free Photoshop Actions for Adding Vintage Effects to Your Photos

If you regularly work on a certain type of project, you probably have your workflow down path, which means you probably repeat the same steps over and over to achieve a specific result. But for a workflow to be truly efficient, it should also save you time. That’s where Photoshop actions come in handy.

Photoshop actions are nothing more than a series of tasks you can record and apply to a single file or a batch of files. They can be as simple as resizing an image and applying a color overlay to more complex such as resizing an image, adding a filter, applying an overlay, and renaming them according to a specific rule.

In most cases, Photoshop actions are used to achieve a certain effect to your images without spending hours recreating the effect from scratch every time. While you can certainly create your own Photoshop actions, don’t forget that there are countless Photoshop actions available for download online.

Among them are Photoshop actions designed to add vintage effects to your images, and in this article, we have collected the best of them. You’ll find a collection of free, high-quality vintage Photoshop actions that you can download, add to your design toolbox, and instantly apply to your designs.
