I got this because my nature republic aloe ran out and thought of looking an alternative. This one is better I believe because

1) has no alcohol so is better for your skin

2) higher percentage of aloe, shorter ingredient list and better ingredients overall

3) In a squeeze tube instead of a tub so is easier to get the product out and more hygienic

The product doesn't have a scent and so doesn't smell as good as the nature republic one, but that to me isn't that bad because it just means it's less chemicals.
