Have a look at this super easy way to mix skin tones using just 4 colours and white.
I remember when I first started using oil paints I had no idea where to start with mixing colours for my portraits. I discovered an artist called 'Daria Callie' on youtube and she helped me so much with using oil paints. She was also the reason I started to mix my colours on glass and honestly I would never go back to using palettes now!!
Daira's channel:    / @dariacallie  

I'd also just like to say in the video I say to stay clear of using black. You can get a nice image by using black too so I should've just said be really careful with it if you do use it!
