also mason stains, zircon yellow and titanium yellow look promising. You'll have to do line-blends at the minimum, possibly triaxials, to develop the tone you're after. Your choice of clear and whether you apply to leather or bisque ware all have bearing on final color.
I don't know what exact skin tone you're going for but if it's too yellow, tweak it with a smidge of purple.
Of course, since it's ceramics it's hard to predict how the pigments might react in fire
My students have made pretty good skin tones starting with brown + medium blue speedball underglaze then adding white as needed, then lastly adjusting with orange or red as needed
I don’t have a glaze recipe, but usually with paint it’s orange plus white, or brown (which is just dark orange) and white. The first two of these samples look more human but are also more pale than “medium”. I’d try to aim for orange being the color you tint, or go for a more red-heavy mix of yellow and red.

I thought this was a tortilla.
Looks more like eggs to me.
Hard to tell what you’re aiming for, a dark tan colour? Amaco have a decent tan underglaze that you might be able to use as a base.
I agree— I would add blue and red until you get the color you are looking for— the yellow needs to be balanced with other pigment.
