What is this product?

Buy VT Cosmetics' Reedle Shot 100 only if a stinging first step is acceptable, because the brand sells the sting as the point: its retail listing describes a deliberate micro-stimulus, and the mineral particle behind it, silica, sits eleventh on a 43 ingredient label. The substantive part is the registration, not the story: niacinamide at fourth and adenosine at fifteenth carry a Korean whitening and wrinkle-improvement functional filing, but VT prints no amount for either, no pH, and no test of its own.

What makes it different?

The delivery claim is where the number is, and where the evidence is not: the retail listing prints 14 times thinner than a pore for the microparticle system and publishes neither the particle size nor the pore width it is measured against. What the label does carry is a soothing back half, four centella markers (asiaticoside, madecassoside, madecassic acid, asiatic acid) and 17 amino acids, sitting behind a plant oil and a fatty ester that make this a poor pick for anyone avoiding oil-class triggers. No fragrance entry appears anywhere on the 43 ingredients, and the brand directs evening use.

What is in it?

The full ingredient list as the brand publishes it, in the printed order. Each name links to what we know about that ingredient.

Key ingredient

Ingredients with no mark are ones we found nothing notable about, and when marks overlap on one ingredient we show the caution first.

We could not place these in the list above: 마카다미아씨오일, 에틸헥실팔미테이트, 솔비탄올리에이트
