If you’re into Korean skincare and love trying the latest K-beauty innovations, you’ve probably heard about the VT Reedle Shot. Known as one of the most talked-about products in Korea, it’s designed to deliver the benefits of at-home microneedling without the pain, downtime, or cost of professional treatments.
But here’s the catch: while this product has the potential to completely transform your routine, many people are using it wrong. Misuse can lead to irritation, redness, or wasted results.
This guide will show you:
- What the VT Reedle Shot is and how it works
- The right way to use the Reedle Shot
- The top 3 mistakes to avoid for glowing, healthy skin
What Is the VT Reedle Shot?
The VT Reedle Shot is a microneedling-inspired skincare product that uses micro-sized spicules (tiny natural needles) to gently stimulate your skin. These spicules create micro-channels in the skin, which help:
- Stimulate collagen production
- Improve skin texture and firmness
- Boost absorption of active ingredients
Think of it as a booster serum supercharging the rest of your skincare products for better results.
How to Use the VT Reedle Shot (Without Damaging Your Skin)
To get the most out of this K-beauty microneedling serum, follow these simple steps:
- Cleanse your skin thoroughly.
- Apply the VT Reedle Shot as your first step after cleansing.
- Gently press (don’t rub) the product into your skin.
- Follow with a barrier-repair serum or soothing moisturizer.
- Use it at night to let your skin recover while you sleep.
Once your skin adjusts, you can carefully introduce stronger actives like Vitamin C or Retinol but always patch test first.
3 Common mistakes to avoid with the VT Reedle Shot
1. Using It Around the Eyes or Lips
The Reedle Shot is too strong for delicate areas. Avoid applying it around your eyes and lips, which are more prone to irritation.
If you want similar results for under-eyes, try the VT Reedle Shot Eye Cream, formulated specifically for sensitive skin.
2. Pairing it with harsh ingredients too soon
Since the Reedle Shot boosts absorption, be cautious with what you apply afterward. Start with hydrating or barrier-repairing serums. Then, once your skin is comfortable, you can explore actives like Vitamin C serums or Retinol creams.
Think of the Reedle Shot as a skincare amplifier but one that requires strategy.
3. Rubbing it into the skin
This is the most common mistake. Rubbing can cause micro-tears and lead to redness.
Instead:
- Spread it lightly over your skin.
- Press and hold with your fingertips.
- Or spread on your palms, then gently press into your face.
Why the VT Reedle Shot is a game-changer in K-Beauty
The VT Reedle Shot makes professional-level microneedling benefits accessible at home. With consistent use, you can expect:
