Korean skincare shop recommendations?

Going to be in Shanghai for a bit and was wondering where the best places are to get Korean skincare? I heard of Harmay but also wondering what other good options are there.

Tourist question about VPN and physical SIM

I'm travelling to Shanghai and my phone doesn't support the eSIM option which usually you can get the VPN with. So it looks like I have to get them separately?

Is there any advice for where to get a physical SIM after landing in Shanghai or any particular type?

And I am hearing conflicting stories about which VPN to go with. I would like to have it for my phone and laptop. So I was looking at Nord but many Redditors say it doesn't work in China. Is this true? What should I use instead?

Are apothecaries a thing here? (Asking as a tourist)

Here in New Zealand we have apothecaries which sell herbs and teas. Over here it's not really considered a medical practice as such but you can get nice tea blends for helping to sleep and such. Things like candles and such are also sold here and it's usually quite a zen, relaxing place.

I am wondering if similar places exist in Shanghai and if you can recommend any?

To clarify, I am not talking about an actual TCM practicing clinic. Which is where my confusion comes from.
