    var newArr = [];
    for (var i = 0; i < a.length; i++) {
        if (newArr.indexOf(a[i]) === -1) {
            newArr.push(a[i]);
        }
    }

var colorsUnique=toUniqueArray(colors); // ["red","green"]

Example 2: javascript remove duplicate strings from array

//ES6
let uniqueArray = [...new Set(arrayWithDuplicates)];

//Alternative
function removeArrayDuplicates(arrayWithDuplicates) {
    let seen = {};
    let uniqueArray = [];
    let len = arrayWithDuplicates.length;
    let j = 0;
    for(let i = 0; i < len; i++) {
         let item = arrayWithDuplicates[i];
         if(seen[item] !== 1) {
               seen[item] = 1;
               uniqueArray[j++] = item;
         }
