Here's another vote for Brown bag which is opaque. If you're going for a nude, but natural nail with a sheer polish then I'd say there's a ton of stuff out there from budget (I like Revlon's nudes) to salon (OPI has a crazy range).

I prefer 'fed up' if I want a more nude finish, and Sugar Daddy for a pinkier finish. Both of those work wonderfully on me.
