Ah, the 2000s. The decade that brought us Gilmore Girls, flip phones, Blockbuster movie nights and some serious beauty looks.
Whether you were a fan of some extreme highlights or blue eyeshadow, we're having a throwback moment with all the looks we used to love.
Check out our favourite looks below and whilst you're feeling nostalgic why not take a look at our top beauty looks from the 90s too?
Eyebrow styles vary from decade to decade, but we think we can all agree that everyone looks better today with natural brows than they did in the aughts with barely-there, pencil-thin brows. It’s just a fact! Listen, you have no idea how many more terrible beauty sins we’re guilty of committing in the 2000s.
Basically the same as you when you got your first blush compact from Claire's.
The tinier and pointier the pouf, the better. Bonus points if you tricked yours out with a ridiculously bright clip.
Since you couldn't live in the sun-soaked OC like you wanted, you had to settle for swirling heavy layers of orange-y copper bronzer across your cheeks and forehead.
In hindsight, those long, pointy toes made everyone's feet look about three sizes larger than they actually were.
If you didn't crimp your hair at a sleepover with your friends, did you really grow up in the 2000s? Christina Aguilera was everyone's hair icon when it came to those textured lengths.
Did we all seriously think this was a flattering shape?
Before the terms "ombre" and "balayage" existed, everyone was after extreme highlights. Here's VB back in her Posh Spice days rocking the stripes.
Lip Smackers (Dr Pepper flavour obviously), Lancôme Juicy Tubes, MAC Lip Glass, you name it, we swiped it on our lips in vast amounts. Here's Beyoncé perfecting her pout back in the day...
Chunky plastic headbands, stretchy mesh headbands, bandanas tied up like handbands—it didn't matter to 2005 you. As long as it was a headband, you were wearing it.
If you were a self-proclaimed hair chameleon then you definitely owned some coloured clip in extensions. Here's Hilary Duff sporting some blue and black streaks.
Putting up your hair with chopsticks was reallly…something. Ditto for butterfly clips, claw clips, and rhinestone barrettes.
They came in every color imaginable.
The pants with many unnecessary pockets.
Long before the days of YouTube tutorials, everyone wore blue eyeshadow. Cameron Diaz paired hers with a very fitting Noughties-style hat.
The little flare made them sort of like peplum skirts, without the skirt part.
Why use a lip liner that matches your lipstick—or, let's get real, lipgloss—when you can use one approximately five shades darker?
You put glitter basically everywhere. It was so versatile!
Side ponytails were the must have style, usually accompanied by a scrunchie. We love Mariah Carey's tousled pony paired with these gold hoops
All of your boyfriend's looked like this. And that was awesome.
