Multi-functional anti-aging cream from the L'Elixir des Glaciers line that the brand says gives an instant lifting effect, refines pores and leaves skin hydrated and regenerated.
Manufacture date and shelf life
Can I tell when my Valmont L'Elixir des Glaciers Votre Visage was made from its batch code?
Not reliably. No reliable public rule exists for Valmont codes. The brand’s customer service can date a code if you send it to them.
How long does Valmont L'Elixir des Glaciers Votre Visage last unopened?
Valmont does not publish an unopened shelf life we could verify (checked October 2026). Go by the date printed on the pack; Korean imports always carry one on the Korean label.
How long can I use it after opening?
Look for the open-jar symbol on the pack (for example 12M = 12 months after opening). Our period-after-opening calculator gives the exact date.
