Drained of colour (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

ashen

'drained of colour' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for ashen that I've seen before include "Having gone pale" , "pale in colour" , "Very pale, with shock or fear" , "lacking in colour" , "(Of face) pale (with shock)" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph, The Guardian and The Times.
