Send the product name, option and quantity when checking availability.</description><content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>You can see and buy skincare at YUNARA Browns Bay, or ask about a particular product and arrange collection. Start with the <a href="https://www.kskincare.co.nz/products/">product range</a> if you want to compare options before visiting. Check the current price and availability on the product page before you enquire.</p><h2>Where to shop</h2><p>The product shopping and collection address is 8 Inverness Road, Browns Bay, Auckland 0630. You can look at products there before buying. If you are travelling for a specific item, ask about availability and a suitable visiting time first. A page showing a product does not reserve it for you.</p><p>Product collection is available at Browns Bay only. Glenfield is not a product pickup location, and courier delivery is not offered. Keep that in mind when planning a purchase from another part of Auckland.</p><h2>Arrange collection of a specific product</h2><p><a href="sms:+64266518050">Text YUNARA on +64 26 651 8050</a> with the product name, the option you want and the quantity. For a mask, distinguish one sheet from a ten-sheet pack. If you want two packs, say two packs so the quantity is clear. If you are asking about more than one product, you can list each on a separate line with its own option and quantity.</p><p>A useful enquiry could read: &quot;FAU Skin Solution SOS Mask, 10 sheets, one pack. Is it available, and when could I collect it?&quot; Including the full name helps distinguish similar products and gives YUNARA the information needed to reply.</p><p>Preparation for arranged collection usually takes 1 to 2 days. Wait for the confirmation text before coming to collect. The usual preparation period is a guide; agree the actual collection arrangements with YUNARA.</p><h2>Shopping and treatment bookings</h2><p>A product enquiry and a facial or massage booking are separate requests. If you also want a treatment, use the relevant treatment booking route. Sending a skincare enquiry does not book a treatment appointment.</p><p>For an introduction to a treatment visit, read YUNARA's published <a href="https://yunara.nz/blogs/skin-guide/first-korean-facial-auckland" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">guide to a first Korean facial in Auckland<span class="blog-new-tab">(opens in a new tab)</span></a>.

Begin with the information on each product and the routine you already use. The names and pack sizes alone cannot tell you which one to choose.</p><h2>Read the size in the unit shown</h2><p>FAU SOS Cream is labelled 80 g. MIEL EGF Cream is labelled 100 mL. Grams measure mass, while millilitres measure volume. Treat these as two different measurements, and keep each unit attached to its product when comparing them.</p><p>The numbers do not give a direct like-for-like price-per-unit comparison. They also do not establish which cream will perform better for you. Check the current price on each product page and consider the product information alongside it.</p><h2>What the product pages describe</h2><p>The FAU product page describes a soft, non-sticky texture and lists aloe vera leaf extract, centella, allantoin and propolis. If you avoid bee-derived ingredients, check the full ingredient label for propolis before choosing.</p><p>MIEL is a leave-on cream in a 100 mL pack. Its product page highlights an EGF complex and places it at the cream step after your usual toner or serum. Follow the supplied directions for use.</p><h2>Read the full label</h2><p>Read the ingredient list on the actual product label, particularly if you already know there are ingredients you prefer to use or avoid. Check the directions for how the cream is intended to be used. Use the full product name when asking a question so the reply refers to the cream you are considering.</p><h2>Place it in your current routine</h2><p>Consider which product you already use at that step and what you want to change. Have the names of your current skincare products ready when you enquire. This gives the conversation a specific starting point without assuming the two creams can be used in exactly the same way.</p><p>Follow the instructions supplied with the product you choose. After a facial, also follow the individual aftercare directions you were given.</p><h2>Check availability before arranging a purchase</h2><p>Use the product pages for current prices and stock, then text YUNARA on <a href="sms:+64266518050">+64 26 651 8050</a> with the cream's name and quantity. You can see and buy products at Browns Bay or arrange collection there.

Check the option selected on the product page before sending an enquiry.</p><h2>Keep product, pack size and quantity separate</h2><p>A one-sheet option and a ten-sheet pack describe different quantities within a purchase. After selecting the pack size, make clear how many of that option you want. &quot;Ten sheets, two packs&quot; gives a different request from &quot;one sheet, two&quot;. If you are comparing single sheets, select the one-sheet option on each page before checking prices. Keep the same pack size selected when comparing the ten-sheet options.</p><p>Use the full product name in your message. FAU SOS Mask and silisca Hydcare are separate products, so an enquiry for &quot;the ten masks&quot; can leave the choice unclear. Include the name even if you have already discussed another item.</p><h2>Compare the sheets and ingredient information</h2><p>FAU describes its mask as a soft, close-fitting, single-use sheet with a cooling feel. The product page lists aloe, centella and tea-tree leaf extracts.</p><p>silisca Hydcare is described as a transparent, flexible, face-shaped gel sheet, with 25 g per sheet. Its listed ingredients include centella, hyaluronic acid and hydrolyzed collagen. It is also single-use.</p><p>Check the full labels when comparing these ingredients and formats. Current prices and availability can change, so view both product pages when you enquire.</p><h2>Plan the routine from the directions</h2><p>Follow the package instructions for applying and removing the mask, including the stated wear time. Use those directions to decide how the mask fits with your other skincare. The number of sheets in a pack does not set a use frequency or a treatment timetable.</p><p>Follow the product's directions for the steps after removal. If you are using skincare after a facial, also follow the individual aftercare instructions you received. Ask about any unclear instructions instead of borrowing a routine from the other mask.</p><h2>Ask about the option you want</h2><p><a href="sms:+64266518050">Text +64 26 651 8050</a> with the full product name, pack size and quantity.

A closer look at four products in the YUNARA cosmetics collection, from visible texture to pack size.</description><content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A cosmetics cupboard can hold very different kinds of products: the cream you keep beside the basin, a BB formula for coverage, and a few masks put aside for another day. The appeal often lies in a small detail. You might prefer a soft cream feel, want to check a particular shade, or be drawn to the look of a clear gel sheet.</p>
<p>Four products in the YUNARA collection offer a way to look at those details, with something useful to notice about each before choosing.</p>
<h2>A closer look at a soft cream</h2>
<p><a href="https://yunara.nz/products/fau-skin-solution-sos-cream-80g" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">FAU Skin Solution SOS Cream 80 g</a> is an 80 g moisturiser with a soft, non-sticky texture. The short, silent video on its product page shows white cream being spread across the back of a hand, giving you a closer look at the spread and visible finish.</p>
<p>That small demonstration is worth watching if texture influences your choices. A description gives you the words; the video lets you see the product moving. How the cream feels to you will still be personal, so take your own preferences into the conversation when you enquire.</p>
<h2>BB coverage, with a shade to choose</h2>
<p><a href="https://yunara.nz/products/silisca-soft-shell-balm-35g" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">silisca Soft-shell Balm 35 g</a> adds cosmetic coverage to a daytime routine. This 35 g Blemish-Balm brings a makeup choice into the selection, with shade, undertone and finish to consider.</p>
<p>Think about the finish you enjoy in your usual makeup and whether you would like to wear it on its own or alongside foundation or concealer. Tell YUNARA what you have in mind and ask which shade is available. Those details help make the choice more specific than the product name alone.</p>
<div style="display:grid;grid-template-columns:repeat(2,minmax(0,1fr));gap:14px;margin:32px 0;"><figure style="margin:0;min-width:0;"><img src="https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0855/4581/2204/files/yn-styled-silisca-balm.png?v=1792015958&amp;width=700" alt="silisca Soft-shell Balm 35 g" width="700" height="700" loading="lazy" style="display:block;width:100%;height:auto;object-fit:contain;"><figcaption style="font-size:13px;line-height:1.5;margin-top:10px;">silisca Soft-shell Balm 35 g</figcaption></figure><figure style="margin:0;min-width:0;"><img src="https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0855/4581/2204/files/yn-styled-silisca-gel-sheet.png?v=1792015971&amp;width=700" alt="silisca Hydcare Gel Sheet Mask 25 g" width="700" height="700" loading="lazy" style="display:block;width:100%;height:auto;object-fit:contain;"><figcaption style="font-size:13px;line-height:1.5;margin-top:10px;">silisca Hydcare Gel Sheet Mask 25 g</figcaption></figure></div>
<h2>The transparent gel sheet</h2>
<p>The <a href="https://yunara.nz/products/silisca-hydcare-gel-sheet-mask" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">silisca Hydcare Gel Sheet Mask</a> has a clear, flexible gel texture. Its face-shaped sheet has openings for the eyes and mouth, and the close-up photographs make the shape easy to see.</p>
<p>Each single-use sheet is 25 g. YUNARA lists one-sheet and ten-sheet options, so check the quantity when making an enquiry. The gel format is a distinct part of the choice; follow the pouch for placement and wear time.</p>
<h2>A ten-sheet set for later</h2>
<p><a href="https://yunara.nz/products/lumiere-water-bomb-sheet-mask-10-pack" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Lumiere Water Bomb Sheet Mask 10-Pack</a> is a ten-sheet set for moisture-focused home care. Use one sheet at a time and keep the remaining sheets for later use, following the pouch directions.</p>
<p>Water Bomb and Lumiere Blemish are separate products. Look for the Water Bomb name when choosing this set, especially if you have been browsing both. The number of sheets is one pack detail; the version name is another.</p>
<h2>Read the pack in its own terms</h2>
<p>The figures on these products describe different things. The cream and BB product are listed by weight. Hydcare gives a weight for each sheet and a choice of quantities. The Lumiere set is presented as ten sheets. Keep those details beside the texture or finish that first caught your eye, and check the full ingredient list and supplied directions before deciding.</p>
<p>You can view and purchase products at YUNARA in Browns Bay, or enquire about availability and arrange collection in advance. For prearranged collection, wait for the confirmation text before visiting.</p>]]></content:encoded></item><item><title>Lumiere Blemish and Water Bomb: two sheet masks to compare</title><link>https://www.kskincare.co.nz/blog/lumiere-blemish-water-bomb-sheet-masks/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://www.kskincare.co.nz/blog/lumiere-blemish-water-bomb-sheet-masks/</guid><pubDate>Sun, 25 Oct 2026 09:17:29 GMT</pubDate><dc:creator>YUNARA Korean Skin Studio</dc:creator><description>Both come in ten-sheet sets. A closer look at the formula differences, pouch directions and details to include when you enquire.</description><content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Lumiere Blemish and Water Bomb come in the same ten-sheet format. To choose between them, look at the version name and the formula. Each product has its own page in the YUNARA collection, with the full ingredient list available to read before you enquire.</p>
<h2>One sheet at a time</h2>
<p>Both sets contain ten single-use sheet masks for home care. You use one sheet for each mask session and keep the rest for later. That makes the number of sheets easy to compare: whichever version you are considering, the listed pack contains ten.</p>
<p>The individual pouch carries the directions for that product. Keep it to hand when using the mask, especially when checking the wear time.</p>
<h2>A few details separate the formulas</h2>
<p>The ingredient list for <a href="https://yunara.nz/products/lumiere-blemish-sheet-mask-10-pack#ingredients" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Lumiere Blemish Sheet Mask 10-Pack</a> includes Niacinamide. The list for <a href="https://yunara.nz/products/lumiere-water-bomb-sheet-mask-10-pack#ingredients" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Lumiere Water Bomb Sheet Mask 10-Pack</a> includes Menthol and Caprylyl Glycol. These are useful differences to notice when you are comparing the two versions.</p>
<p>There is overlap too. Glycerin, Allantoin, Betaine and Sodium Hyaluronate appear in both lists, and both include Fragrance. If you already know there is an ingredient you prefer to avoid, open the complete list for the version you are considering. A few highlighted ingredients leave much of the formula out of view.</p>
<h2>Read the instructions on the pouch</h2>
<p>The YUNARA product pages describe the same basic steps: begin with clean skin, position the sheet carefully around the eyes and mouth, and remove it after the time printed on the product. Each sheet is used once.</p>
<p>Use the pouch directions to decide the wear time and frequency, then follow the remaining instructions. The pack count tells you how many sheets you have; the directions tell you how to use them.</p>
<h2>Make your enquiry specific</h2>
<p>When you enquire, give the full version name: Blemish or Water Bomb, ten sheets. You can also ask Vicky about an ingredient listed on the page or where a mask would fit among the products you already use.</p>
<p>Both sit within the <a href="https://yunara.nz/collections/all">YUNARA cosmetics collection</a>. You can view and purchase products at the Browns Bay studio, or ask about availability and arrange collection in advance. For prearranged collection, wait for the confirmation text before visiting. Courier delivery is not offered.</p>]]></content:encoded></item><item><title>silisca sun care and BB balm: choosing your morning base</title><link>https://www.kskincare.co.nz/blog/silisca-sun-care-bb-balm-morning-routine/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://www.kskincare.co.nz/blog/silisca-sun-care-bb-balm-morning-routine/</guid><pubDate>Tue, 27 Oct 2026 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><dc:creator>YUNARA Korean Skin Studio</dc:creator><description>Light and Classic are sun-care choices; Soft-shell is the BB balm. A practical way to decide which step you want to add to your morning.</description><content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Putting together a morning base starts with the products you already enjoy using. You might want some cosmetic coverage after skincare, or you may be looking at a different sunscreen. In the silisca selection at YUNARA, EPI Light and EPI Classic are the sun-care options. Soft-shell Balm is the BB product.</p>
<h2>Give the BB balm a place in your routine</h2>
<p><a href="https://yunara.nz/products/silisca-soft-shell-balm-35g" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">silisca Soft-shell Balm 35 g<span class="blog-new-tab">(opens in a new tab)</span></a> is a 35 g BB balm for cosmetic coverage. Its place is after skincare and a separate sunscreen. Think about whether you would wear it as your usual base or alongside makeup you already own.</p>
<p>If you have a foundation you like, describe what you would want the BB balm to do in that routine. Perhaps you are choosing a base for days when you prefer a simpler makeup bag. That is a useful preference to bring to the conversation about colour and finish.</p>
<h2>Ask about the shade before choosing</h2>
<p>Start by asking which shade of Soft-shell Balm is available. If colour matching will decide the purchase, ask how you can view the shade before buying. Mention the base you currently use and what you like about its colour.</p>
<p>Finish deserves its own question. Say whether you enjoy a visible glow or a less shiny look, and ask about the balm in those terms. Vicky can then explain the balm’s finish with your usual routine in mind.</p>
<h2>Compare the two 80 mL sun-care choices</h2>
<p><a href="https://yunara.nz/products/silisca-epi-sunblock-light-80ml" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">silisca EPI Sunblock Light 80 mL<span class="blog-new-tab">(opens in a new tab)</span></a> is the Light / Easy option, described for everyday sun care with moisture-focused ingredients. <a href="https://yunara.nz/products/silisca-epi-sunblock-classic-80ml" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">silisca EPI Sunblock Classic 80 mL<span class="blog-new-tab">(opens in a new tab)</span></a> is the Classic / Primer option, described for wearing on its own or before makeup. Both come in an 80 mL tube.</p>
<p>Keep Light or Classic in the name when you ask about one. Explain which moisturiser and makeup you already use, then ask how the selected sun-care product fits with that routine. The Primer name can be a starting point for a question about wearing makeup over it.</p>
<h2>Choose the step you are shopping for</h2>
<p>If you are happy with your sun care and want cosmetic coverage, start with the BB balm. If the morning sun-care step is what you want to review, compare Light and Classic first. You can make that choice separately from buying a new makeup base.</p>
<p>Open the product pages for current prices and availability. For shade questions or a planned purchase, <a href="https://www.kskincare.co.nz/collection/">contact YUNARA in Browns Bay</a> with the product name and what you would like to know.</p>]]></content:encoded></item><item><title>Packing the FAU SOS Welcome Kit for a few nights away</title><link>https://www.kskincare.co.nz/blog/fau-sos-welcome-kit-weekend-skincare-bag/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://www.kskincare.co.nz/blog/fau-sos-welcome-kit-weekend-skincare-bag/</guid><pubDate>Tue, 27 Oct 2026 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><dc:creator>YUNARA Korean Skin Studio</dc:creator><description>Toner, ampoule, cream and one sheet mask in a small set. Plan what belongs in your travel bag, including the steps the kit does not contain.</description><content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A short trip is a good time to take a careful look at what goes into your skincare bag. The <a href="https://yunara.nz/products/fau-sos-welcome-kit" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">FAU SOS Welcome Kit<span class="blog-new-tab">(opens in a new tab)</span></a> brings four SOS products together in smaller sizes. Before adding it to your packing list, think about the steps you use each morning and evening, and which products you actually want to take.</p>
<h2>What is in the four-piece set</h2>
<p>The kit contains SOS Toner 20 mL, SOS Ampoule 5 mL, SOS Cream 15 g and one SOS Mask 25 g. There is one sheet mask in the set. Toner and ampoule are listed by volume, while the cream and mask are listed by weight.</p>
<p>Having those sizes beside the names makes the packing decision more concrete. You can see which care steps the set covers and compare them with the bottles and jar already on your list. The 15 g cream is the kit item; it is different from the separate 80 g SOS Cream product.</p>
<h2>Leave room for the products outside the kit</h2>
<p>The four items do not include a cleanser or a sunscreen. Keep your usual cleansing and daytime sun-care plans in mind when deciding what else to pack. You may also want to bring makeup you already enjoy using.</p>
<p>If your familiar toner and serum are already in the bag, pause before adding a complete set. Would you use the kit's toner and ampoule on this trip? If the missing item is simply a moisturiser, an individual cream may be the more useful purchase.</p>
<h2>Make time to try something new</h2>
<p>The kit is also a way to try several FAU SOS products. If the range is new to you, allow time before departure to get used to the items individually. Introduce unfamiliar products one at a time within your normal routine, so you can decide which ones you want to pack.</p>
<p>The single mask gives you one mask session. Think about whether you would actually set aside time for that while away. You can make your packing choices around the routine you enjoy, even when the set includes an extra step.</p>
<h2>A kit or one cream?</h2>
<p>If you are choosing something for home as well as travel, <a href="https://yunara.nz/products/fau-skin-solution-sos-cream-80g" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">FAU Skin Solution SOS Cream 80 g<span class="blog-new-tab">(opens in a new tab)</span></a> is the separate 80 g moisturiser. The kit offers its smaller cream alongside toner, ampoule and a mask. Comparing those contents can help you choose the purchase that matches your list.</p>
<p>The kit product page includes a video and the four-item overview. Once you have decided, <a href="https://www.kskincare.co.nz/collection/">ask about purchase at Browns Bay</a> using the full kit name and quantity. For collection arranged in advance, wait for the confirmation text before visiting.</p>]]></content:encoded></item></channel></rss>
