Indulge Your Senses: The Allure of Skincare ASMR

woman skin asmr

Have you heard of the ASMR trend? ASMR, which stands for autonomous sensory meridian response, has recently been taking over social media. You may not be familiar with the name but chances are that you’ve seen a few ASMR videos by now. They involve carefully chosen sounds, like whispers, tapping, and crackling, that trigger a tingling yet ultra-relaxing sensation in the viewer. It usually starts in the scalp, with many referring to it as a brain massage, before moving down the body. 

While many ASMR videos are food-focused, skincare ASMR has been garnering lots of attention too. From soothing makeup tutorials to sensory-stimulating skincare routines, people love all of the skincare ASMR content out there and are increasingly seeking out ways in which they can use their own skincare routines to bring about the same tingling effect. With research showing that the sense of touch brings about the strongest ASMR reaction, making a few adjustments to your skincare routine could very well make it even more effective at stimulating ASMR than online content.

How do you go about doing this? Keep reading as OROGOLD shares a few ways to incorporate ASMR into your skincare routine so that you can really indulge your senses! 

Finding Products That Stimulate Your Senses

While there are a few different steps that you can take to bring ASMR into your skincare routine, let’s start by talking about the actual skincare products you’re using. Usually, these are chosen based on efficacy. People prioritize products that produce visible changes in the skin as soon as possible, and rightly so! The main purpose of a skincare routine is to give your skin what it needs to look and feel its best.

However, with skincare ASMR, there’s an extra factor to prioritize too – the extent to which a product stimulates one or more of your senses:

Enhancing the Sense of Touch

Termica Energizing Mask & Serum

Simply touching your skin in certain ways can sometimes stimulate ASMR. However, this can be taken to a whole new level by touching your skin with various products that each have a different tactile feel. This way, not only will your application technique (from tapping to massaging) provide stimulation, but so will the product itself. 

Take the OROGOLD 24K Mousse Cleanser, for example. It forms a luxuriously creamy lather that feels absolutely decadent on the skin. Those lush, gold-infused bubbles will also impart a range of moisturizing ingredients, including argan oil and moringa seed oil. This will leave your skin feeling silky soft afterward, making it even more enjoyable to touch.

The Pure Soothing Eye Jelly Masks Limited Edition also has a wonderfully satisfying texture. These gel masks are not only fun to use but will give your skin a plump and bouncy finish.

The 24K Termica Energizing Mask is another product that works well in a skincare ASMR routine. Its plush texture, partly due to the clay in the mask, makes it a joy to smother onto your skin. As you massage it in, it will start to heat up, once again stimulating your senses. This warmth will carry through until you remove the mask, after which your skin will then feel velvety smooth.

Amplifying the Sounds of Skincare

The sound of skincare is something that many people don’t think about. However, with skincare ASMR, sound is something to be focused on. Stimulating those auditory senses is exactly how those skincare ASMR videos are able to trigger a reaction. This is something that you can easily replicate with your skincare routine.

How? Start by considering the packaging of your product. Skincare ASMR videos often hone in on unboxing and opening packaging in a certain way, so look for products that allow you to do this too! The OROGOLD 24K Rose Gold Age Glow Duo is the perfect example. It’s a system that consists of two products, each encased in sleek ASMR-friendly packaging. Start by opening the luxuriant box and then twisting open one of the jars containing the 24K Rose Gold Multi-Vital Liquid Powder. Apply a small amount to your face before following up with the 24K Rose Gold Enriching Serum. Each product, along with its packaging, will make its own sounds. Tune into these to really enhance your ASMR experience.

The Facial Anti-Aging Firming System is another product that consists of two parts. However, this time, the two elements need to be mixed in a bowl. This can stimulate your auditory senses even more, especially if you pick a bowl that ‘sounds good’ when you’re using it!

Stimulating Olfaction

Olfaction refers to your sense of smell – something else that can be stimulated through your skincare routine. This is a much easier sense to please – it all comes down to choosing skincare products that smell pleasing!

Of course, if you do your skincare shopping online, how do you know if a product is going to have an appealing scent? There are two ways to go about this; read reviews and read ingredient lists. Often, reviews will tell you exactly what a product smells like. If they don’t, look for fragrant ingredients in the ingredient list. While ‘fragrance’ or ‘parfum’ doesn’t really tell you much, other ingredients, like the lavender oil in the 24K Deep Tissue Rejuvenation Mask, will indicate that a product has a floral (or spicy, woody, etc.) scent.

Visual Satisfaction

Flawless Finish Silk Capsules

When it comes to skincare ASMR, it’s not enough for your products to smell, sound, and feel good…They need to look the part too! Again, this is an aspect that’s usually played up in ASMR content. Luxury skincare products often do this best as they tend to look just as indulgent as they feel.

The OROGOLD Flawless Finish Silk Capsules is one product that we’d highly recommend to stimulate your sense of sight. The experience starts with the high-quality box, which flips open to reveal a sleek jar – it’s like opening a special present! Open up the jar and your eyes will be greeted with lots of pearlescent capsules. Take one out, twist it open, and apply the silky cream to your skin for a deeply hydrated yet matte finish. The whole process is a feast for the eyes! 

The String Lift Sculpting System also provides plenty of visual satisfaction. You start by spritzing a gold-flecked serum onto your skin. You then lay a few of the Elastic Collagen Threads onto your face, focusing on problem areas. Spray on the serum again and those threads will start to dissolve, after which they can be massaged into the skin. 

Extending Your Skincare Routine

24K MULTI-VITAMIN DEEP PEELING + MANDELIC ACID

One of the big skincare trends for 2025 is simplicity. People are now veering away from long and complicated routines in favor of short and sweet regimens that only consist of a handful of steps. There’s no denying that this approach can have its benefits. However, if you want to intensify your skincare ASMR experience, occasionally extending your routine would be a good idea.

Why? Because the longer your routine is and the more products it consists of, the better your chances of experiencing ASMR. If you speed through a three-step routine that’s over in a couple of minutes, it won’t produce the same relaxing sensation.

So, what should your extended skincare routine consist of?

Start by cleansing your skin, or even double cleansing. This will leave your skin feeling unbelievably fresh. Then follow up with an exfoliator. Look for one that looks, feels, and smells good, like the OROGOLD 24K Multi-Vitamin Deep Peeling + Mandelic Acid. 

Next up, splash on a hydrating toner before moving on to serums. Again, pick serums that are in line with the advice we gave you above in terms of their sensory-stimulating properties. Layer on two or three serums to further prolong your routine, before finishing up with a moisturizer. If your skin is dry or dehydrated, you could also add in a facial oil as an extra final step.

Make Use of Skincare Tools and Devices

Collagen Cooling Set Limited Edition

We’ve already talked about how you can enhance the sense of touch with certain topical products. However, some skincare tools and devices can have the same effect. This is why they’re commonly incorporated into routines with a skincare ASMR focus.

The OROGOLD 24K HD Touch, for instance, is a face massager that has been designed for use alongside a serum or moisturizer. It will work to massage the product into your skin, making that product feel even more luxurious. It’s wonderfully relaxing too and will produce that tingling feeling that ASMR enthusiasts seek.

If you’d like to take things even more high-tech, investing in the Photonix-2 Jade Eye Wand would be a good move. Not only does the jade tip emit a cooling and relaxing sensation but this then contrasts with the infrared heat released by the device. Although gentle at 107°F, this contrast leads to an amazing skincare ASMR experience! 

If you’d prefer to keep things low-tech, cooling globes are a great ASMR tool. They’re placed in the fridge to chill and then rolled onto the face to provide a refreshing massage. The cool temperatures are great for producing that sought-after tingle. As an added bonus, cooling globes can help to lower the feeling of inflammation and brighten the look of the skin too! You’ll find cooling globes included in the Collagen Cooling Set Limited Edition. This set also contains other products that will only enhance your ASMR experience.
