SoftSheen-Carson Batch Code Checker

Look up four complete historical Blue Ice lot codes in the 2019 NAFDAC laboratory table, for listed products made by SoftSheen-Carson in South Africa and imported by SSC Products Nigeria. Coverage is limited; results are estimates.

For these historical South African Blue Ice products imported by SSC Products Nigeria only, enter the complete six-character lot code: 87P500 for Classic (May 2017); 87P001 for Anti-Perspirant Rollon Beat (October 2017); 87P301 for Anti-Perspirant Rollon Cool (March 2017); 87PN00 for Anti-Perspirant Rollon Pure Ice (March 2018). The conflicting 87R100 code is excluded. Do not remove unknown prefixes or suffixes. The code cannot identify the product or era automatically. Only the manufacturing month is reported; no exact day, default shelf life or automatic expiry date is supplied. This is a historical record lookup, not a live batch-query service or a safety check.

Lookup coverage and limits

Match both the complete code and product: 87P500: Blue Ice Classic, May 2017; 87P001: Blue Ice Anti-Perspirant Rollon Beat, October 2017; 87P301: Blue Ice Anti-Perspirant Rollon Cool, March 2017; 87PN00: Blue Ice Anti-Perspirant Rollon Pure Ice, March 2018. 87R100 is excluded because its recorded manufacturing months conflict. The code cannot identify the product automatically or confirm that your package belongs to these historical records. Results are estimated with month precision; the exact manufacturing day remains unknown. Other products and lots are outside this lookup, with no default shelf life or automatic expiry date. This is not a live batch-query service.

Your next steps

Make sense of your SoftSheen-Carson result

Use the estimate alongside the instructions on your own product.

  1. Keep the complete package code

    Compare the container and carton. Record the letters, leading zeros and any separate printed date. Keep photos of both markings if they differ.

  2. Read expiry and opening instructions

    An EXP or best-before date is different from a LOT code. The open-jar symbol gives months after first opening; it does not reveal when the product was manufactured.

  3. Check the estimate against your records

    An estimate does not establish storage history or authenticity. If the date conflicts with your purchase history, keep the package details and ask the brand.

SoftSheen-Carson Blue Ice historical records: limited products and lots

The archived regulatory records cover named Blue Ice products made by SoftSheen-Carson. The group describes Blue Ice in its brand portfolio; these records do not establish a general group code algorithm or confirm the authenticity, safety or regulatory approval of your product. Dark and Lovely and other products are outside this lookup.

Decoder coverage: Match both the complete code and product: 87P500: Blue Ice Classic, May 2017; 87P001: Blue Ice Anti-Perspirant Rollon Beat, October 2017; 87P301: Blue Ice Anti-Perspirant Rollon Cool, March 2017; 87PN00: Blue Ice Anti-Perspirant Rollon Pure Ice, March 2018. 87R100 is excluded because its recorded manufacturing months conflict. The code cannot identify the product automatically or confirm that your package belongs to these historical records. Results are estimated with month precision; the exact manufacturing day remains unknown. Other products and lots are outside this lookup, with no default shelf life or automatic expiry date. This is not a live batch-query service.

What the official source confirms

  • NAFDAC's archived 2019 table lists these Blue Ice entries on pages 192 and 194: row 4755 for Classic and rows 4805–4807 for Anti-Perspirant Rollon Beat, Cool and Pure Ice. The four manufacturing months are May 2017, October 2017, March 2017 and March 2018, respectively.
  • The table identifies SoftSheen-Carson in South Africa as manufacturer and SSC Products Nigeria as importer. It does not specify package sizes or establish the packaging form of Classic.
  • The complete code 87R100 appears with conflicting manufacturing months for Vibe, Soul and Invincible in rows 4808–4810. All three entries are excluded; this lookup does not choose a date for that code.

What to check on the package

  1. Match the named Blue Ice product and its complete six-character lot code; a matching code on another product is outside this lookup.
  2. Check that your package and purchase history are consistent with the South African manufacturing and Nigerian import records. A listed code does not verify your current physical item, authenticity or safety.

What is a SoftSheen-Carson Batch Code?

A SoftSheen-Carson batch code is a code used by the manufacturer to identify a production batch. It may help identify a production period when the manufacturer's coding rule is known, but the code is not automatically an expiration date.

The SoftSheen-Carson batch code is different from the product's barcode. Barcodes are used for checkout and inventory management. Neither a barcode nor a plausible-looking batch code proves authenticity.

Where to Find SoftSheen-Carson Batch Codes?

Bottom of bottle

Look for a printed or embossed lot code on the bottle base or label.

End of tube

Tube products usually have codes at the serrated seal on the tube end.

Outer packaging

Some products have batch codes printed on the bottom or side of the box.

Tip: Batch codes are usually inkjet printed or embossed with a tactile feel. If you can't find the batch code, check if the outer packaging is still available.

Common questions

SoftSheen-Carson Batch Code FAQ

Clear, practical answers for checking SoftSheen-Carson production codes and shelf life.

Why can't I find my SoftSheen-Carson batch code?

Enter the complete six-character lot code and check its Blue Ice product against the listed historical records. Only 87P500, 87P001, 87P301 and 87PN00 are covered; 87R100 is excluded because the records conflict. Do not remove unknown prefixes or suffixes or copy part of a longer marking to make it fit. The code alone cannot confirm the product or its manufacturing era.

Can SoftSheen-Carson batch code checker verify authenticity?

A batch code cannot prove that a SoftSheen-Carson product is authentic. Codes can be copied, and an unsupported or unreadable code does not by itself show that a product is counterfeit. Ask the brand about an uncertain purchase.

How should I check SoftSheen-Carson shelf life?

No default shelf life is supplied. The lookup gives a historical manufacturing month, with the exact day and current product condition unknown. If you provide a shelf life, the tool can calculate an estimate using that period; it is not a manufacturer-confirmed expiry date. Follow the EXP date, PAO symbol and storage instructions on your package, or contact the brand.

How to store SoftSheen-Carson cosmetics to extend shelf life?

Follow the storage instructions on your specific SoftSheen-Carson product. Keep the container closed as directed. Do not assume refrigeration is suitable unless the manufacturer recommends it.
