I just bought Clinique's Chubby stick in the shade "Chunkiest Chili" and I really like it.

Lipstick Queen "Moment" in their Butterfly line. This line is sheer but still well-pigmented. "Moment" is a non-scary earthy red shade.

Bobbi Brown Carolina sheer lipstick.  You can buy it at Nordstrom.  I love it because it looks good when I'm wearing a red sweater and I'm pretty shy about wearing red lipstick.

Lipstick queen medevil,best sheer red ever!

I agree with Lipstick Queen Medieval - it looks good on everyone and is very moisturizing.

Totally,

Lipstick Queen Medieval, my go to, stashes of it in car, purse, make-up case, suitcase, computer case.

Have gifted to many, the color ALWAYS works.  Wish it stayed on longer, but cest' la vie.

Gotta' have it!

It just depends upon what the OP wants. Lipstick Queen's Medieval is described as a lip treatment. It's very, very sheer (but can be built up) and does not have the pigment of their other lines. And as others have noted, it has very little staying power.

Their Butterfly Ball line that I posted about earlier when I suggested a shade is also sheer, as the OP asked for, but the lipsticks are well-pigmented.

The sheer brick color I just started using is IT Cosmetics lipstick stain in the Pretty Woman color.  It's not the longest lasting lipcolor I've ever used, but the color is pretty and not too intense.  Plus, it leaves a little stain on your lips after most of it has worn off

My budget is mainly "drugstore" and I really like the following:

more-pigmented lipstick:  

NYC Ultra Moist Lip Wear Lipstick in "Sheer Red"

lightweight lipstick:

Almay Smart Shade Butter Kiss Lipstick in "Red"

(there are 3 different intensities for Light, Light/Medium, & Medium skin tones)

tinted lip balm:  

Eco Lips Eco Tint Lip Balm in "Plush Red"
