Wearing bronzer after Labor Day is often considered a beauty blunder-but according to celebrity makeup artist Molly R. Stern, the summertime staple can be worn during fall and winter too. "I love that we are seeing more bronzer this fall-it can be a nice addition to rosy cheeks," says Stern, who counts Mandy Moore, Leighton Meester, Renée Zellweger, and Amy Adams as clients. After creating a flawless base with "a great foundation," Stern likes to use a cream blush like CoverGirl & Olay Simply Ageless Contouring Blush in Lush Berry or Rich Cinnamon ("Lush Berry is a brighter pop of color, whereas Rich Cinnamon is earthier"). To complete the look, Stern dusts Chantecaille Compact Soleil Bronzer in Tahiti over the blusher "for a hint of Aruba-like color in winter."
