How to Use Reedle Shot Serum

If you’ve been scrolling through TikTok or Insta lately, chances are you’ve stumbled across the viral Reedle Shot 100 serum. People are calling it “microneedling in a bottle” and as someone who’s always up for a skincare adventure, I had to find out if the hype is real. Lo and behold, a friend of mine gifted me the sheet mask version of it and I was able to give it a trial run! I liked it, the effects were solid, so I finally bought the bottle and tried it for two months.

Here’s everything I learned about it: how to use it, what it actually does, and how I made it a part of my routine. If you’ve been seeing this product all over your FYP but were too scared to try it, here’s my review on the VT Reedle Shot 100.

What is Reedle Shot 100, anyway?

Reedle Shot 100 Bottle

VT Cosmetics Reedle Shot 100 is a serum that mimics the effects of microneedling, but without the scary needles or derm appointment. Like, literally no pain, no downtime, no regrets. The magic? It’s packed with microscopic spicules – basically teeny-tiny needle-like structures (from natural sources like sea sponges!) that gently create micro-channels in your skin. Those micro-channels end up:

  • Boosting product absorption
  • Stimulating collagen production
  • Helping with texture, fine lines, acne scars, and dullness

How to use Reedle Shot 100 (Step-by-Step)

1. Start with a clean face

Use a gentle, non-stripping cleanser. Your skin should be clean but not dry or irritated. I personally use the Torriden Dive In Cleansing Foam. No scent, and not too heavy on the skin.

Tip: Avoid exfoliating cleansers before using Reedle Shot. You don’t want to double up on irritation.

2. Apply the Reedle Shot Serum

Reedle Shot 100 Serum

Dispense a few drops directly onto the skin, one drop per cheek and forehead. Then gently rub it in while avoiding the eye and lip area. You can put more on problematic areas like open pores and hyperpigmentation. You’ll feel a prickly, tingly sensation. Totally normal! That’s the spicules activating and forming micro-channels. 

From my experience, it doesn’t sting as much, just feels tingly like when you apply AHA/BHA exfoliant serums (but fair warning, my dermatologist did say I have high pain tolerance).

Tip: Don’t massage too hard! Just tap and press, treat your face like a soft mochi. You can spread the excess onto your neck (this is applicable to Reedle Shot 300 and below only).

3. Let it settle for 10-15 minutes

Let it sit and work its magic. Your face might feel a little tight or textured. No need to panic, it fades once you layer other products. And if you’re paranoid about the spicules staying in your skin, don’t worry queen, it gradually sheds along with your skin’s turnover.

4. Seal it in

Hydration is key. For the Reedle shot to actually show results, you have to follow up with a hyaluronic acid serum and then a moisturiser. In the morning, ALWAYS apply SPF.

Tip: If you use your toner as a moisturiser, apply it after the Reedle shot serum.

My honest thoughts on the Reedle Shot Serum

Reedle Shot 100 Serum

I have combination skin with an oily T-zone and dry areas on my cheeks and chin area. Plus, I don’t often get acne but when I do it’s usually just one or two around the face. I usually get red on my dry areas too. The reason why I decided to try out the Reedle Shot Serum was for my open pores and so far it has gone well for me during my 2-month run with it.

What I like about the Reedle Shot What I wish was better
  • Glow is real real
  • Smoother skin after just a few uses
  • No fragrance
  • Doesn’t clog pores or cause breakouts
  • Absorbs well with no greasy finish
  • Slight prickling may not be for everyone
  • Full-size bottle is on the pricier side
  • Slight tackiness before layering other products

You’ll definitely feel a gentle prickly sensation that lasts for a few minutes because of the micro-spicules, but it’s not painful and calms down quickly after applying a soothing moisturiser. What stood out to me most was how much it improved my skin texture over time. Those little bumpy patches around my cheeks and jawline started to smooth out, and my skin looked and felt noticeably more refined. As for the glow, yes, it’s real! My skin texture definitely improved and felt smoother. The dry patches lessened too.

In terms of absorption, it dries down fairly quickly, around 5 to 10 minutes. I also really appreciated that the serum has no noticeable scent at all. It’s completely fragrance-free, which is perfect for sensitive skin or anyone who prefers products without added fragrance. And the best part? No purging. I was honestly bracing for a breakout, but my skin handled it well. In fact, it helped calm some congestion near my chin. As someone who wears makeup often, I was super happy to see how well it improved my skin texture. My base looked smoother, with no dry patches or flaking, and everything just sat better overall.

Criteria Score (1–5) My Personal Take
Overall 4.5 A solid performer in my skincare routine, especially for glow and texture refining.
Efficacy 4.5 Helped with texture, glow, and pore appearance. really delivered that glass-skin effect. After consistent use, I noticed my skin looked brighter, more even-toned, and way more radiant even without makeup.
Texture and Feel 4 Gritty at first, but quickly comfortable. Tingles for a few mins, then calms down.
Ease of Application 5 Super easy, just drop, pat, done. Minimal effort for maximum effect.
Scent 5 No noticeable scent, perfect for sensitive skin or those avoiding fragrance in their routine.
Packaging 4 Sleek glass dropper bottle. Hygienic and easy to use, but not super travel-friendly.
Ingredients 4.5 Smart formula that contains spicules plus peptides and hydrating agents. No harsh alcohol components.
Value for Money 4 Pricey, but worth it for the results. I would recommend starting with the travel pack.

FAQs for VT Cosmetics Reedle Shot Serum

Reedle Shot 100 Mask and Travel Pack

1. What does the Reedle Shot 100 do?

It mimics microneedling: promoting collagen, improving texture, and enhancing product absorption through micro-channels.

2. Can I use Reedle Shot 100 daily?

The VT Cosmetics Reedle Shot has many variants but for this 100 one, you can start with 1–2x a week. I did it once every 4 days at first and then slowly transitioned to using it every 2 days.

3. Which is the best Reedle Shot product to use first?

Reedle Shot comes in a few different formats, and choosing the right one depends on your skin goals, sensitivity, and experience level. 

Here’s a cheat sheet on how often you should apply the different variants:

Reedle Shot Concentration Purpose How Often
50
  • Mild care
  • For sensitive skin
Twice a day. Once in the morning and once at night.
100
  • Improve absorption
  • Improve skin texture
Every night.
300 Every 3 days at night.
700
  • Enhance skin turnover
  • Skin regeneration improvement
Once a week at night.
1000
  • Spot treatment
Once in a while.

4. What to apply and what to avoid after a Reedle Shot?

After using Reedle Shot 100, your skin’s already gone through a pretty intensive treatment with those micro-spicules that simulate microneedling. It’s best not to overwhelm your skin any further. Think of it as your skin being in “recovery mode.” Avoid anything exfoliating or active for at least 24–48 hours. Instead, stick to soothing, hydrating products to calm, nourish, and support repair.

Can Use Cannot Use
  • Gentle cleansers
  • Hydrating toner
  • Hyaluronic acid or Centella serum
  • Barrier-repairing moisturiser
  • SPF 50+ in the AM, always!
  • Exfoliants
  • Retinol
  • AHAs / BHAs
  • Vitamin C
  • Harsh masks
  • Beauty devices

5. Can I use Reedle Shot 100 with my skin type?

Reedle Shot 100 is generally safe for:

  • Most skin types, especially if you deal with dullness, texture, or post-acne scarring
  • People who want the benefits of microneedling without the tools or downtime
  • Anyone with a stable skincare routine who wants to level things up

The best way to know if it’s suitable for you is to understand how your skin reacts to mild stimulation, how strong your barrier health is, and whether you’re currently using any strong actives or medications.

DO DON’T
  • Patch test first (try behind your ear or along your jawline)
  • Use on clean, dry skin
  • Moisturise well after application
  • Wear SPF every single day (non-negotiable!)
  • Start with a trial mask or travel kit if you’re unsure. Try the safer options first:
    • Reedle Shot 100 Face Mask
    • Reedle Shot 100 Travel Kit
  • Use it on broken, peeling, or irritated skin
  • Combine with strong actives like retinol, AHAs, BHAs or vitamin C right after
  • Use it every day unless your skin has slowly built tolerance
  • Ever skip sunscreen — especially the next morning (seriously!)
Who Can Use It Who Should Be Cautious
  • Most skin types — especially combo, oily, or acne-prone
  • People looking for texture refinement and glow
  • Skincare fans who want a non-invasive microneedling alternative
  • Super sensitive skin types (burns, itching, or redness are no-go signs)
  • Anyone on active acne medication (e.g., isotretinoin)
  • If you have rosacea, eczema, or a damaged skin barrier — best to speak with a dermatologist first

Is the Reedle Shot serum worth it? Would I repurchase?

Look, it’s not the cheapest but for what it does, it’s kinda brilliant. I’d definitely repurchase the travel pack or mask version if I’m on a budget, or want to bring it on a trip. I’ve been using the bottle for two months now with 2x/week use, and it looks like it goes a long way.

Would I recommend it? YES, if your skin barrier is healthy and you’re looking for:

  • Texture improvement
  • Brighter, glowier skin
  • At-home facial

This is definitely going to be a staple in my skincare routine. In my experience, it did its job as a booster that made my serums and face masks more effective. If you’ve been doom-scrolling #ReedleShot100 reviews, wondering if it’s worth it, I say give it a go. Start with the face mask or travel pack version and see for yourself!
