Hemolysis results when red blood cells are destroyed or damaged during collection and the hemoglobin and other intracellular components leak into the fluid portion of the specimen. This yields pink to red serum or plasma depending on the severity degree of hemolysis.

What color does your skin turn when hemoglobin is low?
It highly depend on the circumstance. Some bacteria will destroy the hemoglobin, and thus the hemolyzed blood appears transparents, whereas other process will only destroy the hemoglobin wall and thus liberating the hemoglobin, which is then pale cherry roughly in color.
Will blood be red without hemoglobin?
No. The primary cause of the red color we associate with arterial blood is caused by the color of hemoglobin in its oxygen bound state. If I may speculate as to what color blood would be without hemoglobin, I would guess probably a rather light brown. I am basing that speculation on the the fact that serum (the cell-free, liquid component of blood) is a light brown color and that most cells are white-grey in color.
