When it’s blazing hot outside, looking glamorous is especially challenging—particularly when it comes to hair and makeup. Last night in St. Tropez, Natasha Poly stepped out looking insanely gorgeous even though the temperature in the Côte d’Azur is hovering near 100 degrees. For those of us not attending a black-tie gala, the beauty look can easily be adapted for work and the weekend. Here, 5 products to nail the heat-proof look guaranteed to turn heads.

#1: Hair Wax
Try slicking your hair back with wax or strong-hold pomade to keep your mane polished and frizz-free.
#2: Pressed Powder
Skip foundation altogether and use a light dusting of pressed powder to even out your skin and minimize shine.
#3: Eyebrow Pencil
Forgo eyeshadow—which easily smudges when you're hot and sweaty—and instead focus on dramatic brows. Use a pencil to fill in your arches and finish with a brow gel.
#4: Mascara
Since your skin tends to be dewy in scorching weather, it's important to find a mascara that doesn't flake or fall—since that will result in raccoon-like smudging. This mascara is Team-Zoe approved and boasts an idiot-proof applicator.
#5: Bright Lipstick
Finish this summer look with a bright lip (we're obsessed with the fuchsia hue Natasha wore). For day, pick a vibrant stain and top with balm. To amp up the vibe for evening, opt for a matte lipstick.
