I feel like a lot of people are expecting a miracle out of this product and not using it properly, but also it just isn't suitable for some skin concerns.
First of all, I have combination skin that leans sensitive. It says this product is ideal for daily use, but if you have sensitive skin I disagree....it can be harsh and exacerbate your sensitivity if you use it constantly. I use mine 3 times a week and that's the sweet spot. Also, don't use this on the same night you apply retinol or anything acidic on your skin. It's too much and you may notice your skin reacts because there's some strong ingredients in retinol serums. and Reedle shot
Now onto the actual product - two pumps is enough for my face and neck, and yes it does sting upon application. Not in a overly "ouch this hurts" way, but noticably feels like tiny needles in your face. It fades pretty quickly, and dries down fast without stickiness.
Always apply it FIRST, before any other product in your night routine. It's main benefit is helping your other products absorb more deeply and have greater effect - by itself it's not a great source of active skincare.
Once you keep this in mind, you can take advantage of its design and apply your serums, mists, oils etc with greater intention. I've noticed products work way faster and have greater results after I started using Reedle shot. Your hydrating products are even more hydrating, your acne care works more effectively, your skin is overall brighter, and you actually use LESS overall individual product because the Reedle shot is helping your skin absorb everything more effectively.
Is it a vital step in your skincare? Hm no. If you're happy with the way your products are working then you don't necessarily need this. BUT it's worth the money if you are looking to address dull or mature skin that takes a long time to respond to skincare, or really want your products to work at a deeper level in a lot less time. I personally love it and will buy another. But keep in mind to follow the directions and do a patch test to make sure it won't react with your skin :)
Genuinely shocked this product doesn't have more reviews or hype around it. I've been using this peeling gel for a few months and I won't go back to the Kora Organics Tumeric mask exfoliant, which is what I used before this.
First of all, this product is very unique - I apply it to damp skin, and within seconds these white clumps appear as I rub the product around my face. I keep reading that these are dead skin clumps - I'm not sure if it's really dead skin, or just the polymers in the gel that are lifting the dead skin. Either way, it's truly shocking to see how much debris and dirt this product is capable of drawing out! The whole process is painless by the way. Unlike other exfoliants, you don't have to scrub or put up with any stinging sensation. So it's very very effective, yet gentle. Probably the most gentle exfoliator gel out there.
Once you've covered your face in a thin layer of the gel and see the clumps, it's recommended you wash it away immediately. It's still a chemical exfoliator, so wash your face thoroughly to ensure it's not hurting your skin barrier.
You're left with soft, sleek, incredibly clean feeling skin! I feel like this product will work for everyone, but be especially good for sensitive or acne prone skin - it's not harsh, nor does it have a heavy fragrance. I've used it during breakouts and it's really good at calming blemishes and helping them heal faster. I can't get over how CLEAN this makes your skin feel. It's like the perfect base for your other skincare, so I recommend it as a first step in a night routine. You only need a small amount each time, and my bottle has lasted me over three months (using it 1-2 times a week). It's the only exfoliator that hasn't left my skin tight, feeling dry, or slightly stinging from the application. For a price like this, you really can't complain! It's half the price of a Kora mini!
Fast delivery and great service. Would recommend to all. Excellent products
Been using for a month now. Makes my wavy curls look nice. Not sure works for hair loss yet, reviews say give it 3 months to see adifference .

Amazing product
I am now onto my second container of the zero-pore pad, and so far, I am really enjoying it. I notice a clear difference with the size of my pores (I use in conjunction with Dr Nineteen Porexsome Redrn Exosome Ampoule). I use only once a day as I have quite sensitive skin and cannot handle more. If you're sitting on the fence like I was, it is definitely worth the try :)
The product I have used for 3yrs & will continue to use it as it leaves my skin smooth.
Very smooth and last long
I've been using the Freshly Juiced Vitamin Drop and I can already see my skin getting lighter and brighter. My skin tone looks more even, and some dark spots are slowly fading. The texture absorbs well, and it doesn't irritate my skin. I'm very happy with the results so far and will continue using it. I recommend it to anyone who wants brighter and healthier-looking skin.
