VT Cosmetics Reedle Shot 100

Reedle Shot 100 is a Korean skin-boosting serum from VT Cosmetics, designed to be the very first “zero step” of a skincare routine, applied before regular serums and creams. It is built around the brand’s patented Cica Reedle technology, tiny solid spicules derived from purified, silica-rich sea sponge that act as a gentle at-home alternative to professional microneedling, without any device or clinic visit needed.

When massaged into the skin, these micro-spicules help awaken the surface layer and open temporary micro-channels that support better absorption of the active ingredients within the serum itself, as well as anything layered afterward. This particular version sits at the “100” concentration, a mid-strength option positioned between the gentler Reedle Shot 50 for beginners and the stronger Reedle Shot 300 for more experienced users.

Benefits

• Helps smooth rough skin texture and gradually refines the look of enlarged pores.
• Works as a mild physical exfoliant that helps clear away surface dead skin cells.
• Boosts the absorption of the products applied right after it in your routine.
• Leaves skin feeling refreshed and softer with consistent use.
• Provides light hydration and soothing thanks to Centella Asiatica extract.

Key Ingredients

• Cica Reedle spicules derived from purified, silica-rich sea sponge, the core of the product’s technology.
• Centella Asiatica extract, known for its calming and skin-recovery supporting properties.
• Triple hyaluronic acid at different molecular weights for deep hydration and barrier support.
• Green propolis extract, adding extra soothing and moisturizing benefits.
• An amino acid complex that helps protect and repair the skin barrier.
• Niacinamide to support a more even-looking complexion.

How to Use

1. Cleanse the face thoroughly and make sure the skin is completely dry before application.
2. Apply one to two pumps of the serum evenly across the face.
3. Gently pat and massage the product in circular motions until fully absorbed, avoiding heavy rubbing.
4. A light, temporary tingling sensation is normal and expected as the spicules are absorbed.
5. Follow with a suitable moisturizer or serum to lock in the benefits.
6. It is best to start with once or twice a week rather than daily use, allowing the skin to adjust.

Who Is It For?

• Those with dull or uneven-looking skin seeking a brighter, more radiant complexion.
• Those dealing with enlarged pores or mild surface roughness.
• Skincare users already familiar with exfoliating products who want an extra absorption-boosting step.
• Not recommended as a first introduction for very sensitive or reactive skin without prior testing.

Warnings

• A patch test on a small area is recommended before full facial application, especially for sensitive skin.
• Avoid combining it with other Reedle Shot concentrations, such as 300 or 700, in the same routine.
• Avoid using it together with skincare devices or immediately after cosmetic procedures.
• It is best not to layer it directly with strong acids, retinol, or high-concentration vitamin C in the same session to reduce the risk of irritation.
• Discontinue use and consult a dermatologist if redness or persistent irritation occurs.
