      Exactly what I was thinking. Seeing James gel his hair and curl his middle part seemed exaggerated, but I remember my brother and male friends doing just that and looking exactly like that. It's hilarious now, but it was how things were in those days.

    I graduated in 2001, this is so fucking accurate. They made the graduating class wear silver robes, and since it was Florida, everyone was fake tanned and orange and silver and they looked like 7-11 hot dogs. I turned 18 before graduation, got a tattoo, and went to an outdoor music festival instead of graduation. I remember wearing my two camisoles that were basically underwear over a rhinestone bra, and low-rise fake snake-print pleather boot leg pants with my chunky Steve Maddens. Like, people who weren't old enough to recall it think you guys are exaggerating, but you're very much not.

I was way too insecure to pull off anything other than my mall goth clothes, but I would unironically wear that exact outfit now. My "sexiest" purchase was a fishnet shirt that I wore a bandeau top underneath when I was hanging out with my friends. Ooh, and I also had some of those super chunky black platforms. I nearly broke my ankles in them and rarely wore them, but I still loved them. ❤️

    The routine was: St Ives Apricot Scrub, Clerasil or Clean and Clear wash, Oxy pads or Nutrogena acne toner (the orange painful one), NO moisturiser because moisture is BAD - acne must be DRIED OUT. Even if you DIDN'T HAVE ACNE, you just KNEW that you didn't want it ever and the only way to prevent it was DEHYDRATING YOUR FACE. Skinniest eyebrow pencil (the $2 Maybelline ones were best value) and sparkly Lip Smackers from the bathroom dispenser at the mall, maybe a bit of Cover Girl powder foudation and girl you are good to go!

I was 19 and spent all summer saving money to move out from home. That winter was far from glamorous but we managed to Big Ben for midnight. London Eye was supposed to have grand opening, but it was 15 minutes late due to technical issues. I wore orange dress with black mesh overlay with rhinestones and spaghetti straps and probably very high platforms. My hair was super frizzy, since nobody knew about hair straighteners and I kept trying to brush my wavy hair straight for over a decade. Also lots of hair clips.

      I was born at the turn of the decade (89). Ahh the "menthol/isopropyl alcohol says hi" branch of scrubbing skin. I also still do the no-no way by rubbing my face with alcohol swabs/pads occasionally, don't worry most of the time I wash my face like a normal person. There are also times where I wipe itchy spots on other parts of my body with said swabs too, since it's better than scratching my skin off with my dirty nails. I think by the end of the 2000's I was dealing with really bad acne and we were looking at those types of cleansers/skincare sets.

    So I graduated high school in 2004 - here’s the essence of the time.
    Skincare:
    - Biore Pore strips
    - St. Ives Apricot scrub
    - Foaming acne cleansers
    - Stridex & oxy pads
    The boys were dead on about skincare, we basically wanted our skin gone lol. Everything was meant to blast it away.
    Makeup:
    - Every girl had a powder compact, the CoverGirl clean skin that smelled like Noxeema was huge
    - frosty white eyeliner and liquid eyeshadow like the Maybelline Cooling Effects
    - black eyeliner all around the eyes and waterline
    - chunky mascara ~ Maybelline Volum’ Express and Max Factor 2000 calorie were HG status
    - lip gloss was what we wore on the lips (Lancôme Juicy Tubes and MAC lipglass were the height of fashion, but Bonne Bell or CoverGirl would do in a pinch)
    - nobody my age did eyebrows. They would be plucked to nothing but cosmetically left bare
    - you had to be orange, whether through roasting in tanning beds or fake tanner
    - glitter was everything
    The fragrance of the time was Victoria’s Secret Love Spell. I legit had inflatable furniture in my room and I unplugged my computer on Dec 31, 1999 in fear it would blow up. My first phone was a Nokia 3310 and I had a pink case with hearts on it from a mall kiosk.
