Hunger Red vs. Laid Back (blushcremes)

[carol]

I've been going over the shade descriptions and trying to picture them in my head ... but for those who have tried both: what did you think the difference was, if any? Which one did you like better?

Hunger red is so nice, I love it, I barely have to touch it and have enough to do the apples of my cheeks, I barely have to touch that to my face to get enough, its such a natural looking flush. I really like this. I don't know what laid back is, I'll have to check it out!

Yeah. From the shade descriptions, MAC online:

hunger red = "deep plum"
laid back = "ultra-rich chocolate berry."

Just trying to picture how that translates on the face.

I saw Hunger Red and it looks exactly like a Becca creme blush I've been lusting after - it's a medium deep red berry colour, I think Laidback has a lot more chocolate brown tones in it.

The link has a pic to Laidback and even from that I can tell Hunger Red is way redder (check the Culturebloom thread in the Swatch Request gallery for a pic).
