Making a Splash felt around the world


Splash Corp., the leading personal care product manufacturer in the Philippines, is running out of goals to accomplish in the Philippines.
It is already the biggest in its sector and is making aggressive moves to grab market share in other markets, such as the food sector through its recent acquisition of 80 percent of Barrio Manufacturing Corp. for over P472 million, and direct selling through Splash Direct Selling.
But then, there’s the rest of the world, and that’s where Splash Corporation management headed by Rolando B. Hortaleza is turning its more of its attention and resources to, mindful of the immense growth opportunities that other markets offer companies brave enough to venture outside their home court.
Hortaleza, chairman and CEO of Splash Corp., tells SundayBiz in an interview in Splash’s new corporate headquarters in the Bonifacio Global City that he believes that Splash is ready to conquer more foreign shores because it has extensive experience operating in a highly competitive market such as the Philippines.
He adds that the presence of millions of Filipinos working and living overseas provides Splash, who made famous the Skinwhite line of whitening products, a ready market for personal care products, packaged Filipino food and nutritional supplements.
Going abroad, Hortaleza says, is the next step in the evolution of the billion-peso company that he and his wife, Rosalinda, started together 20 years ago.
“We already have the economies of scale and we have the technology to continuously develop new products, not just here but also for abroad,” says Hortaleza, “We are looking into distributing personal care products as well as food and home care products.”
Hortaleza stresses that some enterprising entrepreneurs have actually been distributing Splash products in other markets, such as the Middle East and the United States where there are huge OFW or immigrant Filipino populations.
But now that the company is seeing the bright expansion prospects for itself, Splash is taking the overseas markets more seriously to see how it can take advantage of the markets rapidly opening up to accommodate high quality yet affordable products.
According to Hortaleza, Splash will not have a uniform expansion approach as each country presents different challenges and opportunities. Markets are also different, thus the strategy is to enter each market with different sets of products.
The way it will enter these markets will also be dictated by legal and market structures. It may, for example, consider forging joint ventures with local firms in some countries to get its feet wet. In others, it may go ahead and put up a wholly owned subsidiary and take on the growth challenge alone.
Hortaleza also says that while Splash is taking on a more aggressive approach, its appetite is also tempered by the knowledge that expanding overseas is something new for the company that has earned its revenues almost exclusively from sales in the Philippines.
“We realize that this is something really new to us, but we are optimistic,” he says.
Going for Splash is its long experience in the manufacturing and retail sector in the Philippines as well as distribution relationships forged over the past 20 years. As it shifts from personal care manufacturing to the fast moving consumer goods business, it is confident that it has what it takes to make it just as big in other countries.
Splash products, particularly the best-selling whitening and hair care products, are currently available in Southeast Asia, Middle East and Africa.
Hortaleza says that by bringing Splash to other countries, it contributes to the campaign to show the world how globally competitive the Philippines really is.

Skin White Power Whitening (Face Cream Powder)

I don’t like putting too much make-up on my face. I want it to look clean and more natural-looking as possible. But to achieve a natural-looking face even with some make-up on seems impossible. Until I have found a product that serves as a cream powder, moisturizer and makes my face whiter and smoother all in one.

I have used different Skin White products from Splash for a long time. And one of the product that certainly made a great appeal to me is their Skin White Power Whitening Face Cream Powder. It has 3-in-1 effect as the package says. It whitens, it moisturizes the skin and it is a face cream powder in one package. What I like about it is that it has three benefits that you don’t normally get on some other beauty products. I bought the 20g tube that is good for a month or two and I chose the natural beige color. I have noticed that the product is very light, non-sticky and has a long lasting shine-free powder finish. The cream base and texture of it are really easy to apply. It covers my unwanted marks and eye bags and make my skin glow more. It covers my skin imperfections at the same time moisturizes and whitens some of my dark spots. After seven days of using it I noticed that my skin lightens and it continues to whitens my skin.

I like it a lot! It’s very economical, imagine you could have three products in one. It is convenient and effective in making my skin more beautiful and radiant.

SkinWhite Power Whitening Face Cream Powder


I always loved liquid foundation because it has the ability to stuck in my face for the entire day that I don’t need to retouch in between classes anymore. However, I think buying one every week would be quite impractical. That’s when I started looking out for an alternative. I came across with SkinWhite Power Whitening Face Cream Powder.

I’m using it as a part of my daily routine. Although, unlike my liquid foundation, I have to retouch by noon, it is still worth it. For a cheaper price, I was able to get the most budget-wise cosmetic products in the market.

This works as three in one: (1) It whitens; (2) It serves as a cream; and (3) It serves as a face powder.
Whitening. It noticeably whitened my skin. Although the product did not fulfill its promise of whitening the skin for seven days, it still performs its best and yielded a noticeable result two weeks after.
Cream. It served as a moisturizer of my face. Its texture is much that of my liquid foundation. I like it being in a cream texture because it sticks on my face upon application.
Powder. After application and as I spread out the mixture, the texture that it left my skin is so smooth and very ‘powderized’. It felt so soft and smooth that I can’t even tell its finish texture from my liquid foundation’s output.

I recommend this to everyone especially those teens who would like to save money and time when it comes to cosmetic choices. All three in one package makes it more apt for people who are busy yet do not want to sacrifice the time to apply on-the-rush beauty products.

Skin White Power Whitening


My latest beauty product discovery is the Skin White Power Whitening (Face Cream Powder). I only came across about the product while I was waiting in line at the Cashier in the grocery. I was curious about it being a face cream powder. Good thing they had the product available in sachets that I immediately bought one to try.

The product is available in 2 shades – light beige and white. Initially, I bought the white shade. When I applied it on my skin, I was amazed that it didn’t feel icky at all. The texture of the cream is soft that it felt so safe to spread across my face. The product acts as powder, moisturizer and coverage all at the same time.

I apply it in the evening and in the morning and I noticed that my skin is not oily anymore. I can actually apply the cream alone before going to work. No need to touch up with foundation. The light beige is also nice but the white shade blends better with my skin.
I love that it minimized the oil in my face and that I do not need to apply foundation anymore. Getting ready for work is more convenient now with my discovery of Skin White Power Whitening. Best part of the product is that its very affordable.

I have tried Skinwhite Lotion in the past. I was satisfied with its good effect on my skin. Now, Skinwhite has a new variety. Just the other day, I bought Skinwhite Glutathione Hand & Body Lotion SPF 20 in 10 ml sachet. I just want to try it first before buying a big bottle of this product. A 10 ml sachet of this lotion costs Php19.45 (Philippine Peso) or around US$0.45. I purchased it a nearest grocery store in my place. I like this latest lotion from Skinwhite. This time, it has SPF content which is important for protection against the harmful heat of the sun. Before, whitening lotions were commonly used only when one was at home or at night time. It is very seldom to find extra SPF formula for whitening lotions. Another good thing about this product is its Glutathione content. Almost all of us are familiar about this stuff. It is a good antioxidant for the body and it results to skin whitening. So, this lotion is just so great if you want to achieve a fairer skin complexion. Anyway, after taking shower, I applied this right away on my body. I love its pleasant smell. I don’t have to use any perfumes if I put this lotion on. It easily absorbs on the skin leaving it smooth to touch. So far, I have not experienced any skin blemishes or irritation. My final verdict, I would highly recommend this product. I love the fact that it has dual purpose, protection against harmful UV Rays and its glutathione content. It is also cheaper compared to some other leading brands in the market with just the same or even better quality. I guess I would be using this product for a longer time.


Ever since I was a kid way back 15 or 18 years ago, I can still remember my mother’s advice that a girl or a woman should always possess a fairly smooth and soft skin.

Since then, those words have been tattooed on my mind.

Now that I’m in my early 20’s, I can assure that what my mother told me has been effectively implemented with the help of the most effective and trustful product when it comes to smoothening and softening the skin.

I have been using SkinWhite Products for almost a year now, from their soap, to their deodorant and now, the SkinWhite Whitening Hand and Body Lotion. From that very first day that I have been using it, the words that could portray it is that it’s “very effective.” SkinWhite Whitening Hand and Body Lotion doesn’t just smoothens and lightens the skin but it also has renewhite 3C and vitanourish formula which comprises Vitamin B5, B3 and E that helps in nourishing and preventing the skin from the damages caused by free radicals.

I had tried various products but none could satisfy and meet the standards that I had been wanting. But when I discovered SkinWhite Whitening Hand and Body Lotion, it satisfies me above the level of my expectation. My skin is not dry and it looks healthy and fair that even my friends can’t resist touching it. I’m so thankful to this product because if it wasn’t for this, I wouldn’t know if my skin could survive the harmful effects of the sun and the bad atmosphere around us. With this, my confidence remains. This is really genuinely rare.

Skin White Powerwhitening Face Cream Classic

I have always been open to experimenting with different kinds of moisturizer for my skin. I am one of the fortunate ones who only get the occasional zit breakouts during my period, and it is usually limited to one or two zits and always in the same place. I have experimented with all kinds of moisturizers, and I am no stranger to strange results. I have bought expensive creams such as La Prairie and Sisley, but the best product so far with really terrific results is Skin White Power Whitening Face Cream Classic. I picked this up in the grocery, and since then this become a staple in my bathroom. It is very cheap, about US$1.5 for a 20g bottle. I kid you not when I say that this product has made my skin glow. It has kept the zits away. Since I started using it, I no longer had breakouts during my period (okay, very seldom). My skin tone became even. It was only lately that I started using this for my hands, and although it has only been a few days, I have seen some progress.

What I like about SkinWhite


A recent gem that I found in the groceries is this face cream powder from SkinWhitemanufactured and distributed by Splash (a Philippine-based company).
SkinWhite Face Cream Powder box
SkinWhite Face Cream Powder tube
Here’s my review about this product.
What I like:
1. After applying the cream on your face, it magically transforms into a powder. How cool is that? So there’s none of that eeky, sticky and slimy feeling on your face. It also leaves a long-lasting shine-free powder finish.
2. It’s very affordable at 59.75Php for a 0.70 oz/20g tube. Also available in sachets if you want something more economical and easier on the pocket.
3. It can be used as a make-up foundation. There are 2 available colors I have seen, the white and the light beige. The light beige can very much pass up for a liquid foundation ( I’m just not too sure about the white variant). It can conceal pimple marks and blemishes.
4. The smell is uber nice. Smells like a scented baby powder.
5. It didn’t give me a pimple breakout the first time I used it.
Other things that it also claims (I have yet to prove it. Hahaha!)
6. It has SPF10 which protects you from the harmful rays of the sun.
7. Its Vitanourish Formula keeps the skin moisturized.
8. It whitens your skin in as fast as 7 days.
What I don’t like:
I can’t think of any really

Review of SkinWhite Whitening Hand & Body Lotion

Whitening your skin only takes a little of your time to browse the internet to find the best online stores for the products you need.  Most importantly, finding the best products with skin whitening ingredients to make a great difference completes your quest.




There is a wide array of whitening products and beauty care items from SkinWhite to choose from. This brand stays true to its name and legacy especially in making sure that you have whiter and fairer skin from top to bottom. What make this brand hottest selling in the market are the tangible results actual users see in their skin. Best of all, you need not undergo any painful and oftentimes harmful procedures to see whiter and more beautiful skin. You save a lot of money from your skin care investment while making sure that you get the result you are looking for.

SkinWhite Classic Whitening Hand and Body Lotion is one of the best picks in its collection of skin care products. The main ingredient of this product is the classic SPF 10 formula which is known to powerfully protect the skin and shield it with 10 times protection it needs. It has the active ingredients to actively protect the skin from the harmful UVB and UVA rays of the sun, the main triggering factors that eventually damage and degenerate the skin. It also has the ReneWhite 3C formula which gives the skin super visible and dramatic whitening with as fast as two weeks. It gives gentle micro-exfoliation to regenerate and revitalize the skin especially getting rid of dead skin cells. It has powerful whitening agents that prevent skin whitening through melanin reduction and elimination of skin pigmentation.

With Skinwhite whitening lotion, you get the best defense of your skin from dryness, aging and darkening.

SkinWhite Whitening Hand and Body Lotion Review

 A couple of years ago, I had a job as a lifeguard. I was required to stay out in the sun for long hours, and even though I was under an umbrella, my skin paid the price. I suffered some pretty severe skin damage that included irregular dark pigmentation. When I complained about this to a friend, she recommended I try SkinWhite Whitening Hand and Body Lotion Classic SPF20.



The first thing I noticed about SkinWhite Whitening Hand and Body Lotion Classic SPF20 was that it made my skin very soft and subtle. However, the first week, I did not notice any whitening effects at all. The instructions on the bottle said that it would work in as little as two weeks, so I kept applying it, but quite honestly, I couldn’t tell a difference in my skin tones for those two weeks. The only thing I did notice was that my skin took on a healthy glow and remained very soft and moist.

The SkinWhite Whitening Hand and Body Lotion Classic SPF20 itself is dispensed as a medium viscosity white cream. It feels a little bit lighter than the average hand lotion and is easier to smooth evenly on the skin. The instructions claimed that it was supposed to nourish the skin and I really believe that it did.

I continued to use SkinWhite Whitening Hand and Body Lotion Classic SPF20 for another week and then the results began to show quite suddenly. I applied the lotion one morning and by that afternoon, the brown discoloration had been visibly reduced. I kept applying the lotion day-after-day and eventually, most of the discoloration went away. The areas of brown that were still visible were much lighter than before, barely discernable.

The main active ingredient in SkinWhite Whitening Hand and Body Lotion Classic SPF20 is called, Vitanourish. I’m not sure exactly what that is, but whatever it is, it works. It just doesn’t work as quickly as the company claimed it would. I am not complaining, though, because eventually, it did work and I felt a lot better about the way my skin looked.

I recommend SkinWhite Whitening Hand and Body Lotion Classic SPF20 for anyone who has the type of discoloration that I described or for anyone who would simply like to lighten their skin for any reason. The results are subtle at first, but after awhile, you will really be able to tell that it has made a difference.

Kolours Hair Color - Light Brown


I never had anything done to my hair for the ever since, I guess I was just really afraid to do something with it cause I know it can really hurt my hair and make it really dry or something. I was thinking of getting my hair colored just to have something new and I was looking at those Do It Yourself colors because doing it in the parlor is quite expensive for me.



I tried Kolours Hair Color - Light Brown, and I really loved the result. It was really easy to use, with the instructions and all the materials you need already in the box. I had to use 2 boxes though cause I have a really long hair. While the hair color is on my hair, I felt a little warmness on my scalp, although I think it was the effect of the chemicals.

After I had washed my hair and blow dried it, the effect was really great, even though it ended up not as a light brown but more of a copper brown. My hair became straighter, and it’s as if I had a rebond instead of just a color. I really loved it, and I think after my black hair grows back, I’m going to color it again, cause the effect was just really awesome.

Kolours Dual Conditioning Hair Color


I’m embarrassed to say this but as early as ten years old, I already have a white hair. Those white hair that can be found in old people.

Kolours Dual Conditioning Hair Color






At that age I was so embarrassed and feel really shy about it since I’m the only who has this type of hair compared to my sister and to my circle of friends.

My mom decided to color my hair, so we search for a mild but effective color hair. It has to be mil since I still have a sensitive back then.

After long search for a perfect brand we run to this brand, Kolours. We all know this brand and its tried and tested.

Since then I’ve been using this brand up until now that I’m in my twenties.

The black color of this brand really did a good job. Whenever I color my hair it doesn’t look like dull or looks like a wig but instead it gives my hair a vibrant and shiny hair color.

Now it has a hew product tat doesn’t only color your hair but also has the Dual Conditioning Hair Color which is also added with vitamin E and B5. This two vitamins are an essential factors for a glowing skin which also do the same to our hair. Cause without a healthy scalp a smooth and shiny hair is hard to get.

The matt color produce by other products are not the same with this brand. It has a touch of matt but its still shiny and has a smooth like texture which is best for Asian hair like me.
And because this new product is formulated for Asian hair which have a characteristic of more darker and thicker hair, this product is best for me.

Aside from its vibrant color that it can give me, it also has other benefits like the color is long lasting, with me it can last for almost seven to eight months.

Because of this easy to use products, I do may hair coloring in the comfort of my own home, with a little assistance from my sister it enables us to manage this task.

It doesn’t need other chemicals to give the color its vibrant that we want cause the products includes a hair shining creme and a hair colored conditioner that can be use for up to two or three days.

Base on my long experience in this product, I definitely recommend this one and get the satisfaction I get.
