Avon VDL Lumilayer Primer – Have you heard of it yet? It’s has a cult-following overseas for being the MUST-HAVE product to create glass skin. But does it live up to the hype? And what is glass skin anyway?
We’re about to dive in to this and more. Find out what VDL lumilayer primer is, what it claims to do and why it has such a following. I’ll tell you all about my first impressions with the product and what it did for me…..and what it did NOT do.
What is VDL Lumilayer Primer and What Makes it So much different?
Table of Contents
VDL is a well-respected K-Beauty brand that is known to be the MUST-HAVE product for achieving glass skin. The products are infused with VDL Lumilayer technology.
This exclusive technology creates bright shades of colors by layering different shades of light.
That’s right – VDL technology is so advanced that they have found a way to capture different shades of light for you to add to your skin! Other primers on the market are formulated with artificial colors, where as VDL Lumilayer technology captures actual light pigments.
Can you imagine being able to apply pigments of light onto your skin? Think about how much clearer and purer that truly is!
VDL was able to identify two major shades of light to formulate its products.
The Light Shades Included in VDL Primers
VDL was able to identify and capture two shades of light and included them in the technology for their primers. Both shades assist in helping achieve a healthy and youthful glow.
Blue Light Pigment
The blue light pigment is found in baby’s skin and sets off a clear translucent look.
It makes sense doesn’t it?
If you think about it, isn’t blue found in most clear shades? Doesn’t water emit a blue pigment? Think of the waters in the Caribbean.
It’s blue right?
Same with glass?
It’s clear. It’s pure.
Red Light Pigment
The red light pigment in a bright and healthy complexion. When your skin is dull, it’s emitting less of the red pigment. Instead, dull skin emits a yellow pigment, which causes it to lose it’s healthy bright look.
When VDL combined the blue and red pigments together, they found that those two pigments created the most healthy youthful glow.
The Difference Between Mixing Light and Artificial Colors
Think about when you were a kid and mixed paint colors together. Was the shade you mixed always a flattering color? It might have been ok when you mixed two of the right colors together, right?
But as you continued to add more colors to the mixture? What happened to the paint? Didn’t it eventually become dark and muddy? It may have even had a grey tone.
Now let’s talk about mixing light pigments.
When you mix light pigments together, it doesn’t become darker, or muddy. It actually becomes brighter!!
Since VDL absorbs and reflects light, your skin will glow with vitality, even when you layer the pigment!
VDL Lumilayer primer is the latest innovation brought to the United States by Avon’s partnership with LG H&H. VDL as a company is a superstar in K-Beauty for pushing the boundaries of makeup to inspire young women to realize their dreams and desires through beauty.
The superstar of the VDL lineup is the Avon X VDL Lumilayer Primer, known as “Glass Skin in a bottle.”
VDL Lumilayer Primer is the must-have primer for achieving glass skin. It’s a radiance enhancing primer that captures and reflects the light to create a smooth canvas. What results is a soft luminescent glow.
Avon X VDL Lumilayer primer contains one-of-a-kind prismatic pearls that emit a soft violet sheen. The Pearls blend into your skin to add dimension into the high points of your face and add a natural looking strobe effect.
VDL Lumilayer primer will be available in a bottle as well as in a unique cushion formula. Cushion products are another example of cult-favorites in any K-Beauty routine.
VDL’s trademark Lumilayer Prismatic Pearls are created with red and blue pigments that emit a soft violet sheen for a lit-from-within radiance. A unique double baked method produces finely milled, blendable Lumilayer Prismatic Pearls that are suspended in a moisturizing emulsion which revives dull and dry skin. The pearls blend into the skin to add dimension to the high points of the face and add a natural-looking strobe effect.

VDL Lumilayer Primer Review – My Thoughts
I love the pearlescent glow left behind when I use the VDL Lumilayer Primer. The prismatic effect of the product draws the light to all of the places I want to accentuate and hides the dark spots on my face and under my eyes.
It does not have moisture or oil control properties because it is made to enhance that dewey, glass skin glow. I love how I feel so naturally radiant when I am using it alongside my Avon X The Face Shop Cushion Foundation.
I especially love that it is lightweight and doesn’t feel greasy on my skin. And I truly can’t get enough of the glow from within look created by the soft violet sheen.
It provided a smooth base that masked flaws and imperfections and helped my makeup last a lot longer.
I also noticed that it gave my skin a volumizing effect. As I get older, I’ve noticed my skin not feeling as full or plump and I love the way that this helped give my face a 3D look!
