First, thank you for this workflow, and @Glennmen's work on supporting skin tones #38

My skin tone setting is 1:

This works great for hand gestures:

However, the skin tone setting is not applied to emojis that contain faces (my preliminary observation):

Oops, I just realised that it does support the skin tone.

I've always thought the blonde hair man would have a lighter skin tone than the black hair man (like Caucasians having fairer skin than Asians).

But it turns out in emoji land, Asians have lighter skin tone than Caucasians.

So adjusting my skin_tone to 0 helped. Thanks!
