Ardency Inn Modster Big Mascara Will Give You the Best Lashes Ever

I'm not married or dating anyone, but I know what it's like to find my soulmate—in the form of mascara, that is. I'm aware that the Ardency Inn Modster Big Mascara might not be there for me in sickness and in health, for richer or poorer, but it gives me the best lashes I've ever had in my life (as a beauty editor, I don't feel so crazy saying that).

Before this mascara landed in my hands, I thought I was set for life with Benefit Roller Lash, a Best of Beauty 2016 winner. But professional makeup artist James Vincent gave me the Ardency Inn Modster Big Mascara to try out earlier this year, and now I've gone through at least three tubes. It makes my lashes look longer, thicker, and perfectly curled—three qualities that are hard to find in one mascara. I can't even begin to count how many times I've been asked about my lashes since I've started using it. People have even asked me if I got extensions.

It all comes down to the hardware. Ardency Inn Modster Big Mascara has a Mason Pearson-like brush that basically gives lashes a blow out. The wand has two different kind of boar-like fiber bristles—just like hairstylists' favorite brush. It helps lift, separate, and curl lashes with just a single swipe. Plus, the mascara is formulated with hemp protein, which prevents the lashes from clumping and looking chunky. I like to apply a coat of it, do my brows, then apply another coat of mascara. Like letting the first coat of nail polish dry before putting on a second, the wait time is my secret to helping my lashes look thicker.

If you haven't heard of Ardency Inn before, don't worry about it. When my friends ask what my favorite mascara is and they hear the name, I get very confused looks. Ardency Inn is a low-key awesome brand. Before trying out the mascara, I was a fan of the label's long-wear lipstick, particularly Black is Blue (navy) and Valentine (dusty rose), but I didn't know very much about the company beyond that. I later found out that its products take inspiration from the downtown New York music scene, which, honestly, makes me like this mascara even more.

Have I convinced you of its awesomeness? If I have, you can buy the Ardency Inn Modster Big Mascara now for $25 online at ardencyinn.com and in Sephora.
