About Greenika
Greenika is a Philippine skincare and personal care brand that develops affordable, ingredient-focused products designed primarily for Filipino consumers. The brand offers a broad portfolio of skincare, body care, hair care, sun care, deodorants, fragrances, and personal hygiene products, with an emphasis on combining natural ingredients with modern cosmetic formulations. Greenika has built its presence largely through e-commerce and social media, becoming one of the recognizable local beauty brands in the Philippines. [1]
History
Greenika was founded by Gesika Baylon, who previously worked in digital marketing for international e-commerce businesses. Inspired by the rapid growth of online retail and her passion for skincare, she left her corporate career to establish her own beauty brand.
The name Greenika is derived from two elements:
-
“Green” – representing nature, botanical ingredients, and clean skincare.
-
“Ika” – taken from the last three letters of founder Gesika Baylon’s first name.
The company officially entered the Philippine e-commerce market in 2018, launching its online stores and quickly expanding its customer base through marketplaces and digital channels. According to Lazada, Greenika grew to more than 100,000 followers within its first few years on the platform. [2]
