Microneedle-style spicule serum improves texture and tone; can irritate sensitive skin.

What the community says

This serum uses tiny spicules to mimic microneedling, enhancing product absorption and smoothing texture. It suits those targeting rough skin or pores but can cause tingling, redness, or barrier damage, especially for sensitive or acne-prone skin. Introduce slowly, starting with lower strengths to avoid irritation.

I use the Reedle 700 once a week at night after cleansing, and the Reedle 100 a few times a week after cleansing.

I’ve been using 700 once a week for about 9 months, and the Red 100 for a month and love them so much.

If I could recommend just ONE thing, it’s that. That will transform any routine you’re already doing.

Positive

Basically you want to think of it as your “step zero” — it kind of acts as a mini micro-needling treatment so it’s going to help with the absorption of whatever you put on top.

Positive

It’s supposed to help with the absorption of your actives, smooth your skin, and to reduce pore size as well.

Positive

I even used the VT reedle shot before applying it for better results,
