Is Etiquette Lion still sold as a current Lion toothpaste?
Lion lists Etiquette Lion toothpaste among discontinued products. Old stock may still appear, but the lot result does not make it a current product.
Check Etiquette Lion Cosmetic Batch Code
Etiquette Lion was a Japanese Lion oral-care line associated with breath-focused toothpaste. Lion's product history dates the launch to 1968, while its discontinued-product list records the remaining toothpaste formats as ended products, so packages now encountered may be older stock or retained household items.
Etiquette Lion FAQ
Where should I look for the Etiquette Lion production mark?
Check the tube crimp and both carton flaps first, then the tube shoulder or base area for a short mark separate from the JAN barcode.
Can the lot code prove an old tube is safe?
No. It can only help identify production timing. Printed dates, storage, seal integrity and physical condition remain decisive.
Etiquette Lion toothpaste lot and date check
Before you rely on the decoded date
- Inspect both the sealed end of the toothpaste tube and the carton flaps. Record a short inked or embossed production string separately from the JAN barcode, 40 g or 130 g size, ingredient text and retailer labels.
- A decoded production period is not a new expiry promise for a discontinued item. Also check any printed date, unopened storage history, tube seal, cap condition, odor, color and separation before deciding whether the toothpaste should still be used.
Common lookup mistakes
- Photograph the Japanese name エチケットライオン and the code in the same set so the package is not confused with another Lion toothpaste.
- If the tube has hardened, leaked, swollen, changed odor or lost its original appearance, replace it rather than relying on the lot estimate.
