What’s buzzing in the beauty industry is a new trend featuring Rebel Eyes. Myself and other Atlanta lifestyle/beauty bloggers were invited to be the first to experience this all new Rebel Eye class with a Sephora PRO, explore our in-store and mobile technologies and services, and do a little private shopping at Lenox Square Mall. So what are Rebel Eyes?
Rebel Eyes is a newish beauty concept which means all eyes are on…you EYES. The eyes are the star of the show and they glisten and gleam with boldness and sparkle. The beauty pros at Sephoraare dubbing the trend “Rebel Eyes,” which includes everything from smudgy eyeliner to an overload of glitter. From my understanding of the Rebel Eye trend, the more glitter the better!

We got to see a demo of how to do a Rebel Eye for ourselves. We were taught to smudge on a black base of eyeliner and then play around with a glittery eyeshadow palette. There are so many different ways to play with the look but the goal of this trend is not to be perfect. The imperfections of the smudge and glitter on the eye, thats the rebellion of this beauty trend!

Now it’s our turn to recreate the trends. Sephora once again gave us some beauty goodies to get started to start our own eye Rebellion. Not gonna lie, we were all a little intimidated at first – this was a first for a lot of us to go this bold on our eyes.
Before the Rebel Eye
My Mermaid Gradient Rebel Eye
tte. It was very pigmented, glittery and fun to use. The secret to getting to glitter to stay on the eyes is to use a Glitter Glue.
So this is my look! I went with a Mermaid-like Rebel Eye. I played with the new Urban Decay Moondust palette. It was very pigmented, glittery and fun to use. The secret to getting to glitter to stay on the eyes is to use a Glitter Glue. I loved it and even bought some for myself so I can do more glittery Rebel Eyes at home.
This Moondust Palette by Urban Decay is everything!
MORE REBEL EYE LOOKS
Gradient/Ombre Glitter Eye
Gliterry Smokey Eye
Glittered Winged Liner
So after my Rebel Eye class, I wanted some products so I can go home and recreate the look for myself. I bought the Tarte Clay Pot to make amazing winged liners. I bought the angled liner to go with it. Another thing is the Glitter Glue I was speaking of earlier. This Glitter Glue helps with the glitter to stay on the eye all day and not drop off during the day. I can attest to this Glitter Glue to working because I literally had to scrub it off at the end of my usage. So if you are looking to do your own Rebel Eye, a glitter glue adhesive is your secret weapon!

The Sephora artists are super talented! I stay away from eyeshadow because I feel like a clown when I put it on myself. 🙁 I’d love for them to do my makeup tho!
Wow! The shades are amazing, full of life and definitely perfect for women who like to emphasize on the eyeshadow when putting on their make-up. These will complete your festival look for the summer!
love playing around with eye looks that are different. Having been a make up artist pretty much my whole life (up to a few years ago) this was always my fave thing to do on clients. 😉
Wow, yes,I am ready to experiment with Rebel Eyes at Sephora. There is a beautiful shop in the Reno J C Penney’s store. I’ll try to make it this weekend or perhaps Monday. I’d like to try the Mermaid look.
I never wore make up my entire life and I recently started with a little bit of eye make up and I can’t believe the difference it makes. I’m hooked. I can use all the tips I can get though.
I like to see different applications for eye shadow. You think you have seen everything when you get to be my age, but then someone comes along all innovative and proves you wrong. That’s a good thing. 🙂
I love the glittery smokey eye. I’m not brave enough to try myself, but have had my eyes done when I’ve had to go out for a special event. They always make them look grea!
OMG, if only I can recreate this magical look myself! Lately, Sephora is a second home for me, and pretty sure I’m going to have to find a part-time job to cover all of these unexpected splurges! Definitely checking these out next time I’m in, they’re GORGEOUS!
That sounds like such a cool event. I love Sephora – they are always putting on cool things like this.
wow, such fab eye makeup. I love the glittery smokey eye. Great shots.
I adore bold eye shadows. My husband thinks I’m bonkers whenever I wear dark eye shadow – but I love it!
Pretty! I think I spend more time on my eyes than any other part of my face.
That’s a really intense look. I really love it, even though I’m not sure if I could pull it off.
I love eye shadow that really pops! I wish I could put on my makeup like that but it never comes out the way I want it to.
It’s pretty but I don’t know about using a lot of glitter. lol I’ll have to give it a try.
Those are like MOVIE STAR EYES! And yes I would love to attempt this look for a date night or a night at a party! LOVE IT!
I love learning about new makeup trends and always enjoy making my eyes my focal point. I can not wait to try these looks, especially the glitter.

That’s a fun makeup look for an evening out. I love glitter liner. Give me winged anything and I’m loving it.
I love all the pictures, the smokey eyes and all of it is just fantastic. If only I could ever get mine to look so beautiful!
Looks like fun. I love the look but I rarely wear eyeshadow that pops with beautiful color like this. I need to try it.

I’m a total makeup junkie and adore these eye make looks! I have a sephora in walking distance from my home and need to check these out. 🙂

Love all of these looks. I wish I had someone to come and do my eye makeup professionally each day!
I have seen my daughter do this with her eyes. I was wondering exactly what it was called. I will try to remember that it is rebel eyes.
