"Sksksksk" is a phrase that's mostly typed, sort of like mashing your keyboard as an exclamation. It can stand in for laughter, or express awkwardness, or be the same as an "OMG." It's sort of like saying "I can't even" if it were still 2013. As far as keyboard mashes go, it's a good one.
VSCO girl is a term, generally used as an insult, for a young, usually white woman who posts trendy pictures of herself edited on the app VSCO.
On YouTube, where teens have uploaded themselves “transforming” into VSCO girls, many of the videos have been watched thousands of times. One video titled “Becoming the ultimate VSCO Girl”, uploaded by a YouTuber named Caiti who runs the channel Caiti's Corner, has been viewed more than 1m times.
The whole idea of a VSCO girl got its start in a way that people who were in college when Facebook was invented (e.g., me) have trouble grasping. VSCO is a photo editing app known for its artier images, Nicki Clark, a 20-year-old student from Butler University explained to me on the phone.
According to Urban Dictionary, to qualify as a VSCO girl you must:
- Wear an oversized T-shirt with Nike shorts or a tube top and jean shorts.
- Wear Vans, Crocs or Birkenstock shoes.
- Wear a shell necklace.
- Always have a Hydro Flask and a scrunchie (or dozens if you believe the memes)
Every Single VSCO Girl Has the Exact Same Fjallraven Kanken Backpack. And if you've seen those girls, you've probably also seen one of those candy-colored, square-shaped backpacks. They all wear them and they're all the exact same brand. May I introduce you to: Fjällräven's Kånken, the official VSCO girl backpack.
Definition: A VSCO boy can be a boy who uses the app VSCO, the male counterpart to VSCO girls, or an ideal VSCO boyfriend. A VSCO boy can be a boy who uses the app VSCO, the male counterpart to VSCO girls, or an ideal VSCO boyfriend. A VSCO girl is someone whose lifestyle matches the aesthetics of the VSCO app.
VSCO is rated 12+ in the app store, and the Terms state that anyone under the age of 13 is prohibited from using the service.
VSCO is restricted to users 13 years of age and older.
REI. One of the most telling indicators of a VSCO girl is her brightly colored Hydro Flask — a vacuum insulated stainless-steel water bottle — which she will inevitably be toting and sipping from across social media.
Nope. Kind of the beauty of VSCO. The lack of social interaction/awareness is refreshing.
VSCO (previously VSCO Cam) is a popular app and platform for smartphone photographers.
How to Deactivate Your VSCO Account
- Open the VSCO app on your device and ensure you are logged in.
- Select the face icon in the bottom right to access your profile.
- Select an image and tap the three-dot icon in the top right.
- Select Delete to remove the image.
The app does not have likes, comments or follower counts, so it appeared to put less pressure on users to build up a fan base. VSCO also eschews advertising, instead earning money by charging people for extra features. Of its 100 million registered users, more than two million are paying subscribers.
Is VSCO X Worth It? My answer is, definitely, yes. VSCO X is worth the price you pay and I will be keeping it. For the modest price of $19.99/year you're getting some killer presets, great editing tools and you should be able to shorten your editing time by quite a bit.
The app has been around since 2011, but only recently started making headlines. It now has 40 million monthly users and 20 million weekly active users. VSCO's subscription service, which launched in 2017, surpassed 2 million subscribers at the end of 2018 and was on pace to nearly double in 2019, Inouye notes.

The idea behind VSCO is to post pictures of your daily life. The founders made it so that users can not see likes or comments on pictures posted. They didn't want the whole app to be defined by how many likes someone gets. The pictures you post on VSCO are a snapshot of your life.
