Crossword Genius

Most interested about colour (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

tint

'colour' is the definition.
(tint is a kind of colour)

'most interested about' is the wordplay.
'about' indicates a hidden word.
'TINT' is hidden in the letters of 'most interested'.

(Other definitions for tint that I've seen before include "Hair dye" , "'Shade, tone (4)'" , "work for coiffeuse?" , "A slight shade of colour" , "Quality of colour" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
