How do you use Overconsumption Core?

The phrase is usually ironic or disapproving rather than an aesthetic people proudly claim. It calls attention to shopping content where owning more becomes the visual point, especially when products are barely used before newer versions arrive.

Where did Overconsumption Core come from?

The label developed as a counterpoint to underconsumption core and de-influencing conversations in the mid-2020s. As creators showcased reusing ordinary possessions, viewers increasingly named the opposite haul-heavy lifestyle 'overconsumption core.'
