MM Smackdown: Valentine’s Day Massacre 2013

As much as I liked pulling together heart-adorned cosmetics for yesterday's post, I maintain the belief that Valentine's Day is stupid (except that it does give me an excuse to eat an entire box of chocolates by myself).  Therefore I am continuing the Valentine's Day Massacre tradition I started last year.  2013's smackdown is gonna be a bloody, bodice-ripping good time!

Clash of the Corsets is ON!   Let's get ready to rummmmbbbblllllle!  *ding ding*

In the right corner we have historic brand Avon with an eye shadow quartet in flirty, sexy hues of cream and purple.  Outlined in hot pink and black, the compact flaunts its power and sex appeal with a ruffle-trimmed corset that can barely keep the shadow contained.

In the other corner we have drugstore mainstay Physician's Formula Sexy Booster bronzer.  Unlike its foe Avon, the corset shape is imprinted into the powder itself rather than being outlined in plastic.  Packaged in a red fishnet stocking design complete with high heel silver charm dangling sexily on the side, this shimmery bronzer promises to provide a "hot and sultry" glow.

So who wins the Clash of the Corsets?  Does Avon have the upper hand due to its bigger size and wider color range?  Or will Physician's Formula overwhelm its opponent with its fishnet pattern and bronzey shimmer?  Tell me in the comments!
