As to these, I have no idea, but it does seem like a failure of some sort.
It is interesting that in both cases, the purple area is in the center of
the frame, and only affects areas of Rose's skin tone. Have you looked at
her to make sure it isn't an accurate representation of a bluish-blush?

This will take time and patience, but as others have suggested, the lasso
will restrict the area to be affected. The trick is identifying that area
with some degree of accuracy, or the edges of the selected area may expose
your editing. So, you may find yourself working at close to the pixel
level of the image, and at that level, the lasso is less important.
Good luck!
Neil
