If you've been curious about microneedle skincare but don't know where to start, the VT Cosmetics Reedle Shot 100 Essence 50ml is the perfect entry point. This K-beauty cult favourite uses micro-spicule technology to gently resurface, brighten, and boost skin regeneration — no clinic visit required.
What Is VT Reedle Shot 100?
The VT Reedle Shot 100 is a microneedle ampoule that contains 100 micro-spicules per mm² — tiny, skin-safe needles derived from natural sea sponge (Spongilla). When massaged into the skin, these micro-spicules create micro-channels that allow active ingredients to penetrate deeper than a regular serum ever could.
Key ingredients include:
- Cica (Centella Asiatica) — soothes, calms redness, and supports skin barrier repair
- Micro-Spicule Technology — gently exfoliates and boosts ingredient absorption
- Niacinamide — brightens skin tone and minimizes the appearance of pores

How to Use VT Reedle Shot 100
Follow these steps for the best results. Use 2–3 times per week in your evening routine.
Step 1: Cleanse
Start with a clean face. Double cleanse if you're wearing sunscreen or makeup — an oil cleanser followed by a gentle foam or gel cleanser works best.
Step 2: Tone
Apply your toner to balance skin pH and prep skin for better absorption. Pat gently — do not rub.
Step 3: Apply VT Reedle Shot 100
Dispense 2–3 pumps of the VT Reedle Shot 100 Essence onto your fingertips. Apply to your face and massage in circular motions for 1–2 minutes. You may feel a mild tingling sensation — this is normal and indicates the micro-spicules are working. Avoid the eye area.
⚠️ Tip: Do not rinse off. Leave it on as part of your routine.
Step 4: Serum
Follow with your favourite serum. Because the micro-spicules have opened micro-channels in the skin, your serum will absorb more effectively at this step.
Step 5: Moisturize
Seal everything in with a moisturizer to lock in hydration and support the skin barrier overnight.
Step 6: SPF (Morning Only)
If using in the morning, always finish with SPF 30 or higher. On days you use the Reedle Shot, your skin may be more sensitive to UV — sunscreen is non-negotiable.

Complete Routine Q&A
Q: How often should I use VT Reedle Shot 100?
A: Start with 2 times per week and gradually increase to 3 times per week as your skin adjusts. Avoid using it every day, especially when first starting out, to prevent over-exfoliation.
Q: Can I use it in the morning?
A: Yes, but we recommend using it in the evening. The micro-spicules temporarily increase skin sensitivity, so using it at night gives your skin time to recover before sun exposure. If you do use it in the morning, apply SPF 30+ immediately after your moisturizer.
Q: What should I apply before VT Reedle Shot 100?
A: Cleanse and tone first. The Reedle Shot works best on clean, prepped skin. Apply it before your serum and moisturizer — it acts as a treatment step that enhances everything that follows.
Q: What should I apply after VT Reedle Shot 100?
A: Follow with a hydrating serum, then a moisturizer. Because the micro-spicules boost absorption, this is the ideal time to apply your most important active ingredients — like Vitamin C, niacinamide, or hyaluronic acid.
Q: Can I use it with retinol?
A: We recommend not using VT Reedle Shot 100 and retinol on the same night. Alternate them — for example, use the Reedle Shot on Monday and Thursday, and retinol on Tuesday and Friday. This prevents over-exfoliation and irritation.
Q: Can I use it with Vitamin C?
A: Yes! Applying a Vitamin C serum after the Reedle Shot is one of the most effective combinations for brightening. The micro-channels created by the spicules allow Vitamin C to penetrate more deeply for enhanced results.
Q: Will it hurt or cause redness?
A: A mild tingling sensation is normal and expected — it means the micro-spicules are active. Some users experience slight temporary redness immediately after application, which typically fades within 30–60 minutes. If you experience prolonged irritation, reduce frequency of use.
Q: Is it suitable for sensitive skin?
A: Yes. The Cica (Centella Asiatica) in the formula helps calm and soothe the skin during and after application. However, if you have very reactive skin, do a patch test on your inner arm before applying to your full face.
Q: How long before I see results?
A: Many users notice smoother, more radiant skin after the first 1–2 uses. For more significant improvements in texture, pores, and tone, consistent use over 4–6 weeks delivers the best results.
Q: Where can I buy VT Reedle Shot 100 in Canada?
A: You can order the VT Cosmetics Reedle Shot 100 Essence 50ml directly from VGLE Beauty with shipping across Canada. Browse our full VT Cosmetics collection for more products from the brand.
