I think Cornflower is also known as Periwinkle.
And Bluet is Blueberry.
I think that is correct but maybe someone else can say for 100% sure.

You are welcome Girls !!!
Original Bal Colors names are always in French,
so I guess it's easier for me to remember all the blues, reds etc ...

PS : for Cornflower, it's BLEUET not bluet
and here is a pic...

I agree, we need a blue cheat sheet with the french names next to them (like atelier did before it went away ).
