I think if you poke around the internet you’ll find that there’s a lot of tutorials that addresses white skin ( at one point that was sadly the majority of tutorials at least ).
Though the undertone problem you speak of is pretty common across a multitude of colour-subjects. Including hair.
Distinguishing your undertones and knowing how to work them ( or work against them ) will help you adjust your tones to your desired spectrum.
This takes practice and a little bit of knowhow. And - admittedly, it is much easier to do digitally ( using functionalities such as Hues/Saturation or Curves to experiment and alter the undertone ).
If you’re mixing colours analogue and manually, there’s probably a point in making very small tests of your pigments and paints to make sure you have the dosage of each colour down properly, so that the final tone will match your desire.
If you typically end up with a colour a little too yellow for what you envisioned, i suggest adding a red to veer the yellow back a bit. Then you can try and inch out on the yellow spectrum again and see what that gives you.
Sometimes artists will also share their skin-colour swatches online for others to reference. If anything i recommend taking a bit of inspiration from those, perhaps even try to break down the different tones and colours used in the mix.
