Shelf Life: 36 months from manufacturing date for unopened products, unless the packaging states a shorter period.
About Vichy Batch Codes
Vichy is commonly sold through pharmacies and dermocosmetic retailers, so products may sit in back stock or travel through multiple distributors. A batch-code check helps estimate whether a serum, cream, shampoo, sunscreen, or treatment product was produced recently enough for your comfort.
The result is an estimate based on the production code. Always follow any explicit EXP date on the package, especially for SPF products and active dermatological skincare.

Where to Find It

- On a tube crimp for Normaderm and sunscreen products
- On Dercos bottles near the back label or lower seam
- On the outer carton flap close to the LOT, EXP, or barcode area
If you see both a barcode and a shorter printed lot code, use the shorter code for this checker.
Tips for Checking Vichy Batch Codes
Enter the printed code exactly as shown and compare the bottle or tube with the carton when both are available. Do not enter the barcode, shade reference, or pharmacy price label.
Vichy products are often water-based gels, serums, or active skincare. Store them away from heat and direct sunlight. If a serum becomes cloudy, changes scent, or a cream separates, do not rely on the batch date alone.
