This is the app and brush that I used in this tutorial/drawing. The width varies, but everything else is pretty much the same throughout this whole thing. Remember the opacity is 3%.

1. Colors!
Okay, these are the colors that I usually used. Wait, I lied. Turns out I forgot to add one color in the bottom one. Don't worry it will show up later in the tutorial. But what I first do is applied the color of skin that I want.
Oh! I forgot! I usually have the color palette for skin around 5 different color, as you can see here, from lightest to darkest.

2. I have no idea what this is called, add shading?
In many of my drawings, I just start shading right on top of the first color. But since, I want this to be a easy tutorial, I will just put the shading in another layer.
So yeah, New Layer!
Okay. I applied the next color, or colors, to add shading? I placed these color where a shaded area would be, like under the hair, or around the top of the neck.

3. Uhhh... add more shading.
I am an expert at explaining things. (Not) Anyways, next I add the next darker color to the very dark areas. As you can see here, I even circle that places where I put the color. Oh! There's that missing color that I was talking about!
