Is it possible to make skin color with in acrylic paint with Portrait pink?

I've looked up on here on how to make skin color and everyone said to use burnt sienna, but I didn't know that at the time so I didn't buy it. I'm paint a baby's head, and its skin is kinda pale. Can I make a skin color with Portrait pink? And if so, how? And how to make different hues of paint for shadows and stuff? Thank you~
