Hi Now I guess many of you have gone through the lists and seen many repeats but its easy to start losing track isnt it.
Well Im a bit geeky so I copied and pasted the lot into a spreadsheet and fiddled with it to come up with a master list of what everyone so far has posted, it was a bit painful, well actually a lot painful but anyhow here it is:

PS the number at the end is how many ppl had it in their list.
Hope it helps ;-)

Question. Do you ladies feel that MAC eyeshadows last a long time or would I need a primer(?) underneath to keep the color from fading & creasing?
Also, any color(s) that are similar to a perwinkle (blue-lavender-lilac)? I heard that winkle is a very nice periwinkle shade, but it looks very blue to me.
Thanks for your help!
