Summer is definitely the most common season to see self-tanners flying off the shelves, but bronzer never seems to go out of style for some celebs (like Jennifer Lopez). Just because the real sun is hidden away in Winter, doesn't mean you can't still get your faux glow on and looked like you just leapt from May into December. Do you keep up a bronzer habit in months without sun or do you kick it to the curb come cold weather times?

Haha as a brown person, I don't think this applies to me. I'm not as iridescent and sparkly during the winter, but I'm still full of color.
1I'm pale and bronzer often looks dirty on me, but I do use a very subtle one in the winter on those days that I just look like death. I use it more in the summer though.
2Someone should tell JLo that it`s not nice to look like a smudged chocolate bar.
3Well, I wear it all the time, but I live in Florida, so it's always kinda like summer here. It's at least always sunny even if it is chilly out...
4i live in florida, with the exception of these cold fronts every other day this year, its usually nice enough for me to go to the beach or go swimming in the pool anyway. Plus i have a naturally caramel-esq complexion which i get from my mom, which is strange since im french-german-and polish... you'd think i'd be pale (my brother and sister are plae with blonde hair and blue eyes though... weird.) ANYWAY, rambling. I always wear bronzer and i use a self-tan lotion every morning so i dont look washed out.
5Bronzer looks really bad on me. I never wear it. I'm too pale.
6haha i am in the same boat you are laura220...and my name is laura as well!
7I use it year round, I need the color. But mine is subtle with some pink mixed in.
8Alabaster skin + bronzer = hot mess.
9I love my bronzer....
10I don't really wear bronzer unless I have some occasion, and even on most occasions I don't wear it.. lol.. I guess I'm just not used to it! plus, living in the middle east, I get to tan during the summer and it usually lasts till the next summer (my skin really keeps a tan, and I only need to go to the beach once or twice!).. but lately I think I need to wear a bronzer since I didn't tan this summer and I'm looking a little too pale for my liking!
11Bronzer is nice on me but only in the summer when I have a little bit of a tan from being outside so much.
In the winter, it just makes me look bad. I use a "warmning powder" for my skin. I am just too fair for most products out there.
12I stick to my natural coloring all year round so I think I'm better off sticking to blush. Pale/very fair skin and bronzer don't mix like others have already stated.
13I rarely do
14Is it just me, or does the bottom half of Jennifer Lopez' face look different? She doesn't look the same.... Perhaps she got some 'work' done?
15she's SO gotten filler in her lips
16I wear it year round but the shade and amount is what changes. I'm fair skinned so in the winter I wear a light bronzer mixed with a bit of pink however in the summer my skin easily goes very brown so I wear a deeper, shimmery bronzer then.
17During winter, I use rosy blush for flushed winter cheeks
18I'm too pale to wear bronzer.
19I don't tan, even in the summer so when I wear bronzer it just makes me look like I'm wearing the wrong color of foundation. So yeah, no bronzer for me.
20I very fair skinned with pink undertones, also and I don't like the tan look so I use Dallas blush by Benetint, a dusty rose color. It gives you that look of a little sun, but with out the dirty face look.
21I'm also a pale girl-so no bronzer for me. It always looks too unnatural. If I used bronzer I'd have to put it all over my body so that I'd match. I don't really want to do that. I believe in embracing one's natural beauty, so I just make good use of what I have. Since I have really fair skin I try my best to keep it clear and porcelain-looking.
22I rarely wear bronzer. It looks pretty fake on me. Definitely not during the day in the winter.
23I'm really pale as well, but I use a light bronzer at my hairline, temples chin, nose, and under my cheekbone. It's very light and I use a really light hand, and the shade isn't orange. This plus a nice blush make my face glow in the winter.
24I wear it always it really plumps up my skin.
25Nope, I'm caramel-complexioned
26i sure do, only to contour though. i'm pale as f*ck, but certain bronzers/dark blushes work great if you dont go too crazy with it.
27I'm rosy-faced and fair, so bronzer just looks wrong on me. I think it makes me look dirty. So I just deal with the pallor!
28My skin is wayyyy too fair to wear bronzer in the winter...I hardly wear it in the summer as it is.
29I LOVE bronzer...but since I'm fair, I pick the lightest color they have. It makes me look alive. Otherwise, I look like death. Unfortunately I can't pull off the pale look like many girls can!
30It's not really bronzer, but I do wear bare escentuels 'warmth'
31Yes, all year round...I love it and use different shades for day and night!
32I love bronzer in the summer... I still continue to wear a teeny tiny bit in winter, paired with some pretty pink blush.
33I have REALLY pale skin, so as long as I take it easy on the bronzer I'll pull it on here and there when I think my skin needs a bit of perking up.
34Don't need it... I blush naturally on my high cheeks.
35i'm biracial -- my daddy gave me year round bronzer the natural way.
but i live in
MI so when i'm feeling extra pale I may use a little powder bronzer just to liven up the face a little.
36No way - bronzer just makes me look like a china doll with a grubby face.
37Definitely. I am all about using a matte bronzer to contour along with my highlighter. ALL ABOUT IT!
38I do wear it year round. It just looks more healthy and makes me feel better.
39I don't stop wearing bronzer just because the weather is colder. I just ease up on it, or I get a lighter shade. Sometimes a lightly sunkissed look during the winter looks good and healthy.

41never touched the stuff
42I've never worn bronzer before, but my mom does. Maybe I'll try it this summer, but it seems wrong for winter.
43i wear blush most days, but on special occasions i bring out the bronzer...
44If it weren't for Benefit's Hoola I'd be walking around looking like Casper in the winter months.
I love the stuff.. I just hit pan this morning and got a little panicked, and googled it to make sure it's not discontinued! But it's one of their best sellers so it's probably here to stay.
I don't see a reason to stop wearing bronzer as soon as the weather gets cold... Obviously you have to use less of it and apply it with a light hand so it looks more natural.
45YSL bronzer warms up my skin all through winter - you can't beat that with a bat!
46Never wear it...and I think JLo looks fab!
47Absolutely. I use Clinique's loose powder bronzer. I've been a fan of it for years and wear it all the time, no matter what the season. I think bronze skin looks especially beautiful with winter white clothing
I just bought GlowFusion the other day, but haven't tried it yet... I've heard good things about it though.
48Bronzer pretty much everyday in the summer and once-in-a while for the winter...I just stick to a peachy blush!
49Jennifer looks amazing!!
love my bronzer,
50but in winter just
use a little bit,
nothing over done.

look.
