7.7 is coming and that means you have another chance to clear your online carts.

If you’re either a makeup newbie who is looking to fill their makeup kit or a makeup enthusiast who is looking for new products to try, or maybe someone in between, you had come to the right place.

Here, we are dropping our list of recommendations for full-face makeup. Check out these tried-and-tested local makeup products to buy this upcoming sale.

Starting with a base, if you haven't tried Detail Cosmetics' Fresh Filter Foundation yet, then you are missing out. This foundation offers buildable light to medium coverage with a skin-like natural finish that is perfect for an everyday look whether you’re going to school or to work.

The Fresh Filter Foundation retails at P499 for its full-size 30 ml bottle but you can get selected shades for only P399 on July 7 from 12 m.n. to 2 a.m. on Shopee.

GRWM Cosmetics recently released a 126-piece collection, but in our opinion, one of their stand-out items is the Radiance Tint Multiuse Base (P399).

The buildable multi-use base can be worn as foundation, contour, and highlight, among others, but it is also perfect as a concealer. They have a wide variety of shades, 32 to be exact, that can cater to multiple skin tones.

If you have not yet tried Vice Cosmetics' Gandoll Micro Brow Pencil and Gandoll Volumizing Brow Gel, this is your chance.

Aside from it lasting an entire day, these two are beginner- and budget-friendly with both products retailing for P245 each. You can get the brow pencil for only P170 at midnight on 7.7 on Shopee and level up your eyebrow game.

Of course, an eye look would not be complete without mascara and Vice Co. recently released their new game changer, the SuperMegaExtraDrama Mascara, which will go on sale for only P319 on the upcoming sale.

This tried-and-tested mascara volumizes even the shortest lashes. It is also waterproof and can last all day so prepare to check out and try this product for yourself.

Whether you are looking for a beginner-friendly and reliable eyeshadow palette to add to your collection, you cannot go wrong with Squad Cosmetics’ Eyeshadow Palettes.

Available in Neutral or Peach, these nine-panned palettes are available for only P159 each this July 7 on Shopee, perfect for students who are on a budget.

Slay your eye look and sharpen your cat eyes with Careline's long-wearing and smudge-proof felt-tip black eyeliner, Graph-Ink Liner. It's available for P159 this 7.7. from its usual retail price of P220.

The Graph-Ink Liner is also now available in matte and “extreme” variants.

Mid-year sales are also an excuse to try something new, and just in time for the sale, BLK Cosmetics has dropped their newest Universal Color Sticks. The multi-use sticks now have five shades: two new shades that can be used for contouring, two blush shades, and one color-adapting blush.

Color Sticks are available for P449 but will be on sale this 7.7 for P359 each.

Whether you are looking to add a bit of glow or elevate your look with a blinding shimmer, Colourette’s Shimmertints can help you.

This pigmented liquid highlighter can be your glow bestie for every day or your partner-in-crime for a full-on glam night.

The Shimmertint will be available for P239 on 7.7, a steal from its usual P399 retail price.

They say lippies complete a look. Luckily, Detail Cosmetics and Happy Skin has come out with new shades.

Detail Cosmetics’ Glass Stain, a glossy lip tint, now has six new pinkish-hued shades for shiny and healthy-looking lips.

Each Glass Stain retails at P199 but you can get the original six shades that give a more MLBB healthy look for only P159 on 7.7.

However, if you prefer matte or velvety lips, Happy Skin also released five new Lip Mallow shades. The velvet-like matte tint is available for P599 each and they currently have an online exclusive promo where you can get a free Cloud Pouch for every purchase of any two Lip Mallow tints.
