Everyone has a makeup or body product that they fondly remember from back in the day (old-school Urban Decay, anyone?). One Reddit user was lucky enough to rediscover her old, stashed goodies years later. In a series of photos, fun_expert revealed a pink trunk full of items from the 2000s, including shimmery eye shadow from L.A. Colors (still a drugstore staple!) and Christina Aguilera's line of perfumes and lotion.

"It physically pains me how long I left these under the bathroom sink. Some of them are easily 10 years old. Ouch," she wrote about her old nail polish collection.

The user even shared a snap of Aquolina Pink Sugar Perfume ($30). Just a mere whiff of the cotton-candy-like scent takes us back! Fun_expert's middle- and high-school era stash reminded us of our own beloved, discontinued favorites. Remember Jessica Simpson's line of flavored beauty products? My particular obsession was the banana-split-flavored lotion.

Though we've left some of these items in the past, sometimes it's nice to be able to revisit those beautifully awkward middle-school moments — especially via makeup! Click through the gallery to see these throwback products!
