Check a Chifure batch mark

Chifure sells cleansers, lotions, milks, creams, serums, sunscreen, lip colour, foundation, eye makeup and selected hair care. Labels such as TA, VC&AR, SPF or PA describe a formula family or protection level, while makeup also carries shade references. These details identify the product but are not the manufacturing lot by themselves.

Chifure FAQ

Where is a Chifure batch code?

Check the container base, tube crimp, compact underside, carton flap or the sealed edge of a refill pouch for a short separate mark.

Is TA or VC&AR a Chifure lot code?

No. Those labels distinguish product formulas or series and should not be interpreted as a manufacturing lot.

Which code should I use after refilling a Chifure bottle?

Use the traceability mark from the refill pouch for the product inside; the reusable bottle may belong to an earlier purchase.

Before you rely on the decoded date

  • Inspect the bottle or jar base, tube crimp, compact underside and the sealed edges of a refill pouch. Keep the outer carton or original container when transferring a refill, because the pouch and reusable bottle can carry different manufacturing marks.
  • Record the Japanese sales name, product type and refill status before decoding. Chifure has similarly named moisture, whitening and sensitive-skin lines, so a formula abbreviation should not be substituted for the shorter printed or embossed traceability mark.

Common lookup mistakes

  • Do not enter TA, VC&AR, SPF/PA ratings, shade numbers or a refill-volume label as the batch code.
  • For a refill, photograph the pouch seam before disposal and do not rely on the older reusable bottle's mark.
