How to find the batch code?
A batch code is usually stamped or printed with a dot-matrix printer. You can be confused with the catalog number of the product (Ref.) and EAN / UPC number (barcode), which also appear on the packaging, but these numbers are printed in a standard way. Batch codes can be distinguished because they are applied later to the already printed package.
A batch code is an identification code assigned to a batch of cosmetics. It may contain information such as manufacturers code, production date, etc.
Select a brand to see instructions on how to look for a specific brand’s batch codes. The batch code is printed or stamped on the bottom of the product package.
