Can anyone recommend a nice nude nail varnish?

I'm not meant to wear nail varnish at work but would like a nude varnish to make my nails look a bit nicer without being obviously painted. Ones I've bought have either been too white or a bit shimmery. Recommendations please ladies Smile

get a colour usually used in a french manicure and apply without the naffo white tips

Top Shop do a really nice subtle transluscent pale pink called Kiss and Tell. I love it. Am applying it right now ( types carefully so as not to smudge . . .)

I like 'Like Linen' by Essie. Have a basketful of nude colours, but this is one of the best.

I like Like Linen too. Jessica also do a less pinky nude which looks great on and can be built up for a more noticeable look

I use Chanel 'Ballerina'. Very pale and neat.

OPI bubblebath is a lovely pale pinky see through nude

Recommend a "play" at the Dior counter. It's tough stuff too....lasts and lasts.

I'm not supposed to wear nail varnish either, it's so obvious if you do though...I buff my nails and they're so shiny it looks like I'm wearing clear polish anyway.

I love the Jessica polish called Beautiful, very natural.

Another vote for Chanel "Ballerina". It makes nails look gorgeous. Shiny, subtle colour. Worth every penny!

Either Opi it's a girl or Essie ballet slippers. The Opi one is more translucent but ballet slippers is a classic pink.

Chanel Ballerina here as well. Very pretty.
