[ VT ] Reti-A Reedle Shot 100 2-Step Hydrogel Mask

RECOMMENDED FOR: All skin types, skin dealing with enlarged pores, rough texture, reduced elasticity, or early ageing

PERFECT FOR: When enlarged pores and reduced elasticity are on your mind, and you want retinol results without the harsh irritation

AM: Step 1: after evening cleansing, apply Reti-A Reedle Shot 100 to a bare face and absorb with a massaging motion.

PM: Step 2: once absorbed, remove the film from the tightening hydrogel mask and press it onto your face. Wear for a standard 20-40 minutes, or 2-3 hours for intensive pore-elasticity care (can be used overnight), then remove and pat in the leftover essence (official recommended time: night).

Step 1 is a moist, pale-yellow essence with a light tingle. Step 2 is a bouncy, high-adhesion hydrogel sheet that tightens pores.
