My Thoughts on VT Cosmetics Skincare Line ✨ (Wins From Giveaways) ✨

I wanted to curate a special list for this brand as I’ve been having positive experiences. My skin usually suffers during the summer time but this year, this product has kept my skin clear. I’m truly thankful to have won this giveaway as I had no idea this would be a game changer in my skincare routine.

I have seen this all over my socials and was wondering what the hype was - and NOW I get it. I’m so excited and pleased to have incorporated a new skincare product that I will be using in my skincare routine. This isn’t like any other skincare item in my collection, and I will be looking more from this brand in the future. This is the VT Cosmetics Reedle Shot 100, an essence that is meant to mimic microneedling treatment. Rest assured, there is no needles involved. Out of the three concentrations I’ve tested, this is the most mild and tolerable formulation. I have seen improvements in my skin as little as two weeks, which honestly was impressive for me. Some of my acne marks faded away completely, which I haven’t been able to get rid of for years. This product now will remain in my rotation for years to come. Here’s some of the many reasons why I was interested in the Reedle Shot 100: 🌱 I’m actually scared of needles (funnily enough, because my professional work involves dealing with needles on most days), and I was actually under the assumption this was applied using microneedles. Safe to say, its none of that. No needles, better for me. 🌱 From the set of three I got, I prefer this one the most. It is the 100, weakest concentration, and it’s good enough to apply on a daily basis. Though, I prefer applying every other day due to the sensation alone, which I will explain in the next bullet point. 🌱 When applying this, I did feel a stinging and tingling sensation. As someone with sensitive skin, of course I was initially worried. However, I noticed that only when I touch my face do I feel the stinging sensation. When left along as first part of skincare routine after washing my face, I don’t feel anything, as long as I’m not putting pressure or touching my face. 🌱 This contains cica reedles, which look like microscopic needles. This is what causes the tingling sensation. This particular ingredient helps shed off dead skin over time, which increases cell turnover rate and results in healthier, brighter skin tone. 🌱 The Reedle Shot 100 contains multiple skincare goodies and no bad ingredients at all. Trust me, I checked it thoroughly. It also makes sense to why this product is so popular. Some of the honorable ingredients to mention include: - Centella Aisatica Extract (an antioxidant that doubles as anti-inflammatory agent for eczema) - Madecassoside (an antioxidant that comes from Centella Asiatica that helps with skin soothing as well - Niacinamide for skin brightening - Glycerin, sodium hyaluronate for hydration of the skin - Glycine for improving wrinkles - Serine as a water binding ingredient (enhances the effect of ngredients that promote hydration - Arginine for speeding up wound healing and is a primary building block of skin collagen - Isoleucine as a skin barrier repair ingredient - Macadamia Ternifolia Seed Oil, which comes from Macadamia nut and is loaded with nourishing fatty acids 🌱 Note, when wearing this, it’s HIGHLY recommended to wear sunscreen after applying this. Your skin will be in a sensitive state and you want to make sure to take care of it. 🌱 Because it mimics a microneedling experience, do not use any external skincare device or LED mask. I would focus on keeping your skin hydrated while this product works to repair your skin. Overall, I rate this a solid 5/5. I don’t think I encountered such a product I liked that is different from what’s usually found on the market. I also like that I’m already seeing effects from this product on my face.

Reedle Shot 300

Like the 100, this is a great product as well. Just make sure to use this every 3 days instead of every day. This is a bit more powerful than the 100, and I’ve seen some of my post acne marks completely fade away.

I have seen this all over my socials and was wondering what the hype was - and NOW I get it. I’m so excited and pleased to have incorporated a new skincare product that I will be using in my skincare routine. This isn’t like any other skincare item in my collection, and I will be looking more from this brand in the future. This is the VT Cosmetics Reedle Shot 300, an essence that is meant to mimic microneedling treatment. Rest assured, there is no needles involved. Out of the three concentrations I’ve tested, this is is a bit stronger than the 100 concentration, and definitely not meant for every day use. I used this on two days in replacement of the 100 concentration (in the past two weeks), as this is meant to be used every 3 days instead of every day. VT cosmetics has a schedule of applying these products according to concentration, which I highly recommend you to follow. I love this product but it is advised to utilize this with caution. Let’s get into more details on why I appreciate the Reedle Shot 300: 🌱 From the set of three I got, I would say this is probably the one I saw immediate results with. As someone with sensitive skin, the 300 felt pretty strong. It’s meant to be applied every 3 days, and I wouldn’t recommend shortening that duration. I applied it twice in a two week period due to being cautious as well as being aware of my pain threshold, which I will explain in the next bullet point. 🌱 When applying this, I felt a stronger stinging and tingling sensation compared to the 100. As someone with sensitive skin, I felt that I might experience a negative reaction with the 300, despite doing well with the 100. However, after patch testing for an hour, my skin looked fine and the pain did not last more than a few minutes. I also did not experience any irritation. I resumed in doing my whole face, (and yes it hurt the first five minutes but the pain went away) and I will say, the following two days, my skin looked amazing. As long as you’re not touching your face, you won’t feel any pain. Let the cica reedles do its work. 🌱 This contains cica reedles, which look like microscopic needles. This is what causes the tingling sensation. This particular ingredient helps shed off dead skin over time, which increases cell turnover rate and results in healthier, brighter skin tone. 🌱 The Reedle Shot 300 contains multiple skincare goodies and no bad ingredients at all. Trust me, I checked it thoroughly. Similar to the 100, the only main difference that the 300 had a higher concentration of Cica Reedle compared to the 100. It also makes sense to why this product is so popular. Some of the honorable ingredients to mention include: - Centella Aisatica Extract (an antioxidant that doubles as anti-inflammatory agent for eczema) - Madecassoside (an antioxidant that comes from Centella Asiatica that helps with skin soothing as well - Niacinamide for skin brightening - Glycerin, sodium hyaluronate for hydration of the skin - Glycine for improving wrinkles - Serine as a water binding ingredient (enhances the effect of ngredients that promote hydration - Arginine for speeding up wound healing and is a primary building block of skin collagen - Isoleucine as a skin barrier repair ingredient - Macadamia Ternifolia Seed Oil, which comes from Macadamia nut and is loaded with nourishing fatty acids 🌱 Note, when wearing this, it’s HIGHLY recommended to wear sunscreen after applying this. Your skin will be in a sensitive state and you want to make sure to take care of it. 🌱 Because it mimics a microneedling experience, do not use any external skincare device or LED mask. I would focus on keeping your skin hydrated (with moisturizer) while this product works to repair your skin. Overall, I rate this a solid 5/5. I like this a lot, but prefer the 100 for my sensitive skin. As someone who engages in daily skincare routine, I have to make a careful note not to use the 300 daily, which is why I use it very sparingly, as recommended by the company.

Reedle Shot 700

This is some STRONG stuff and I LOVE it! This is definitely meant to for a seasoned skincare user. I recommend starting with the 100, and building your way up for tolerance of higher concentration serums from this line.

While I see the hype with the Reedle Shot 100 and 300, and rightfully so, I sense that the 700 is meant for the seasoned user of Reedle Shot, as the concentration of this is the strongest. I do like this product, but I exercise caution while using this. Out of the set of reedle shots I received from VT cosmetics, this was the strongest I’ve ever tried. This is the VT Cosmetics Reedle Shot 700, an essence that is meant to mimic microneedling treatment with the strongest concentration possible. Out of the three concentrations I’ve tested, this is the strongest of the set, and CANNOT be used in less than a week at minimum. In fact, I recommend using this once every 2 weeks due to how strong this stuff is. I used this once in a two week period, made sure not to go out that day, so my skin could do its magic. The results are amazing in a few days, but this is definitely not for the weak. It stings heavily compared to the other two concentrations, and I think this is the max concentration I’m willing to put on my face. Rest assured, the stinging does not last more than it should (it was max 2 minutes for me). VT cosmetics has a schedule of applying these products according to concentration, which I highly recommend you to follow. I love this product but it is advised to utilize this with caution. It’s also recommended to finish your skincare routine with this alone because it could cause a stinging sensation when used with other products. Let’s get into more details on why I like the Reedle Shot 700, even though I will use it sparingly: 🌱 From the set of three I got, this is is the strongest concentration I’ve ever tried. It’s meant to be applied ONCE every week, and I wouldn’t recommend shortening that duration. I applied it once in a two week period due to being cautious as well as being aware of my pain threshold, which I will explain in the next bullet point. 🌱 When applying this, I felt a stronger stinging and tingling sensation compared to the 100 and the 300. As someone with sensitive skin, albeit not super sensitive, I felt that I might experience a negative reaction with the 700. Luckily, I did not experience any negative reactions at all. I did experience stinging sensation when rubbing it in, but after a couple of minutes, it went away. 🌱 This contains cica reedles, which look like microscopic needles. This is what causes the tingling sensation. This particular ingredient helps shed off dead skin over time, which increases cell turnover rate and results in healthier, brighter skin tone. The difference between the 700, 300, and 100 reflects the concentration of cica reedles, so you can imagine the 700 one being the strongest in terms of effects as well. 🌱 The Reedle Shot 700 contains multiple skincare goodies and no bad ingredients at all. Trust me, I checked it thoroughly. Some of the honorable ingredients to mention include: - Centella Aisatica Extract (an antioxidant that doubles as anti-inflammatory agent for eczema) - Madecassoside (an antioxidant that comes from Centella Asiatica that helps with skin soothing as well - Niacinamide for skin brightening - Glycerin, sodium hyaluronate for hydration of the skin - Glycine for improving wrinkles - Serine as a water binding ingredient (enhances the effect of ngredients that promote hydration - Arginine for speeding up wound healing and is a primary building block of skin collagen - Isoleucine as a skin barrier repair ingredient - Macadamia Ternifolia Seed Oil, which comes from Macadamia nut and is loaded with nourishing fatty acids 🌱 Note, when wearing this, it’s HIGHLY recommended to wear sunscreen after applying this. Your skin will be in a sensitive state and you want to make sure to take care of it. Definitely make sure to moisturize post application as well. 🌱 Because it mimics a microneedling experience, do not use any external skincare device or LED mask. Overall, I rate this a solid 5/5. I like this a lot, but prefer the 100 for my sensitive skin, and maybe the 300 occasionally. As someone who engages in daily skincare routine, this product I keep away from my regular products so I don’t mistakeningly use this multiple times in a row.

Girrrrrllll, I know the struggle! Since most Korean skin care has been focusing on dry skin, I gotta nitpick and find products good for oilier skin types. ❤️
