Mario Badescu FAQ

Do Facial Spray and cream jars mark alike?
No. Spray, dropper, tube, bottle and jar formats should be inspected separately.
Codes across Mario Badescu bottles, jars and sprays
Before you rely on the decoded date
- Inspect bottle and jar bases, the lower back label, tube crimps, dropper-bottle bottoms, spray shoulders and carton flaps. For a boxed serum or cream, compare the short code on both the inner container and box.
- SPF 15/30, A.H.A, Vitamin C percentage, product size, barcode, Drying Lotion sediment and price labels are not batches. Record the separate short printed, etched or embossed mark with the exact product name.
Common lookup mistakes
- Do not shake Drying Lotion unless its instructions say otherwise; its settled layers are intentional. Close droppers, sprays and jars, keep applicators clean and store formulas away from heat and direct light.
- Printed expiry and PAO take priority. Stop use if odour, colour, clarity, emulsion, spray action or skin response changes beyond the product's normal appearance.
