Blue Salon Franken or another fake?

While I was at salon scoping out polishes, I came across some interesting colours that were clearly either salon frankens or fakes. Either way they are pretty colours and other than the smell (which I assume means they are not B3F)  they are nice polishes. They apply well and wear fairly well. I posted another one a week ago or so,  (you can find it here )  and this is one of her sisters.



Again with the "That's Berry Daring" label.


Oh well, I am a suckah for blue, so she is happily living among my unbiased nail polish community.

Do you think it is a fake or a franken?

Thanks for looking.

There is something wrong with this picture....

I popped into a salon a few weeks ago to see if they had any interesting polishes for sale, and low and behold they had this OPI I had never seen before. It reminded me a little of At your Quebec and Call which is long discontinued, but this was less green and more bronze. Upon further investigation I noticed something a little off. The label on the bottle says "That's Berry Daring". Now I don't own That's Berry Daring, nor do I know exactly what colour it is, but I can make an educated guess that even with OPI's sometimes overly creative naming system, that something called That's Berry Daring isn't going to be a dark bronze. Either way, the colour was unique and interesting, so I purchased it figuring it was a salon franken.

The first thing I noticed was the smell. I am sure some people might say all nail polish smells, but this was somehow more offensive than most. More chemically, and strong.


I actually do really like the colour, and I have nothing like it in my stash. The application was good as well. I will be interested how this Konads. I'd like to see it stamped over black.


A friend suggested that it might be a fake OPI. Either way, I do like it. It might be nice on toes as well, with a nice tan.

Thanks for looking!
Enjoy your day!
