Check Balloon Massage Cosmetic Batch Code
Balloon Massage refers to Kracie’s Japanese バルーンマッサージクリーム, a 100 g massage cream rather than a broad multi-product brand. Kracie formally announced that sales would end in December 2020, making remaining marketplace stock an older or resale item that needs careful package and condition checks.
Balloon Massage FAQ
Is 81032 a production batch?
No. Kracie’s notice identifies it as a product item number for one pack configuration.
Does an unopened seal guarantee the old cream is suitable?
No. Storage history, package integrity, physical condition, and any labelled expiry still matter.
Check a Kracie Balloon Massage Cream batch code
Before you rely on the decoded date
- Inspect the tube crimp and shoulder, cap area, carton flaps and underside, multipack film, and case label for a compact printed, stamped, or embossed lot. The 100 g size, JAN 4987045810329 or 4987045810336, item 81032/81033, barcode, and carton quantity identify the SKU or pack configuration rather than its production date.
- The official discontinuation notice lists single-product case formats of 100 g × 12 and 100 g × 3. A retailer sticker or current listing date does not show when the cream was manufactured, and a decoded production context does not overcome damaged seals or poor storage.
Common lookup mistakes
- Record the Japanese product name, 100 g size, Kracie company panel, JAN and item number, country, expiry or PAO, and every code on tube, carton, and case.
- For old stock, do not use a tube with a broken seal, swelling, leakage, separation, unusual odor or color, dried texture, or skin irritation.
