Check an Alblanc skincare or makeup batch code
Before you rely on the decoded date
- Inspect bottle and jar bases, tube and refill crimps, pump collars, carton flaps, sheet-mask pouch seals, compact undersides, and powder-refill trays for a printed, stamped, or embossed lot. I, II, III, IV, SPF50+ PA++++, brightening, medicated wording, shade, refill, volume, JAN, barcode, and case reference identify a formula version, protection level, regulated claim, color, package format, size, item, or accessory rather than the manufacturing date.
- Keep the exact package generation and format together. The Lotion and Emulsion each have four versions, UV Emulsion is a separate daytime product, and a Serum-in Powder Foundation pan, compact case, sponge, and limited refill can carry independent codes. Other Kao brands should not be dated from an Alblanc package merely because their manufacturing conventions may overlap.
Common lookup mistakes
- Record the complete Japanese product name, cleanser/essence/lotion/emulsion/serum/UV/makeup category, I–IV version, shade or SPF, refill or case status, size, Kao panel, JAN, and all container and carton codes.
- Protect pumps and refill openings from contamination, apply sunscreen according to its directions, and replace products after seal failure, leakage, persistent separation, powder hardening, or a marked odor, color, or texture change.
