If you’ve been following my skincare journey for a while, then you already know how much I love the VT Reedle Shot line. There’s just something about that signature tingling, microneedling-like sensation that leaves my textured, combination skin feeling smoother and more refined. So naturally, when VT launched the Reti-A Reedle Shot 100, I had to try it.

As someone with sensitive, easily irritated skin, retinol products can be… complicated. Some are too strong, some leave me red and flaky, and some clog my pores rather than help. But because I had already used other serums from the Reedle Shot line, and my skin generally reacts well to them, I felt confident giving this ampoule a go.

And after using it on and off for a few months, I finally feel ready to share a full, honest review based solely on my experience.
