How it works
The Reedle Shot name describes a sensation, a light prickling meant to evoke microneedling, and the number describes strength within the line: 100 is the entry point, with 300 and 700 stepping up from there. This essence carries niacinamide, sodium hyaluronate, centella asiatica extract, adenosine and propolis extract, a combination built for tone, hydration and comfort rather than one dominant active. It sits deliberately light so first-time users or sensitive skin can try the format before moving up the ladder.
Key benefits
- Niacinamide for tone, one of five named actives in this entry-strength formula
- Sodium hyaluronate and centella asiatica extract carry the hydration and comfort side
- Adenosine, a smoothing active, and propolis extract round out the five
- Positioned as the mildest strength in the Reedle Shot ladder, ahead of 300 and 700
- A lightweight, fast-absorbing essence texture built for layering, not a heavy standalone step
- No added fragrance, per the brand's own formula description

This is the unit built for the Korean market. VT Cosmetics does not run a customer-facing verification portal, so match the batch code on the box against the code printed on the bottle itself: the two are stamped separately and should agree.

Payment and security
We accept
How to use
- AM and PM, after cleansing and toner, as an essence step before your serum.
- A small amount pressed into damp skin rather than rubbed in.
- Let it absorb fully before your next layer to avoid pilling.
- If you are new to the Reedle Shot line, start here at 100 before trying the 300 or 700 strength.
Worth knowing
- If you screen a full INCI before buying, ask us to source it before you order.
- This is positioned as the mildest strength in the Reedle Shot ladder; if you already use actives confidently, the 300 or 700 strength may suit you better.
- Propolis is a bee-derived ingredient, so this is not a vegan formula.
