[ Review ] : Nature Republic Aloe Vera 92% Soothing Gel Mist

 

Product Description
Nature Republic Aloe Vera 92% Soothing Gel Mist is a gel mist that moisturizes and protects the skin against the harmful environment. It is formulated with California CCOF-certified organic aloe, and can be used on the face, arms and legs. 

I received Nature Republic Aloe Vera 92% Soothing Gel Mist from my aunt after her Korea trip. I have previously tried Nature Republic 92% Soothing Gel and Nature Republic Real Squeeze Aloe Vera Moisture Foot Mask but the performances were just mediocre. 

Similar to the Soothing Gel, this mist has alcohol listed as the 2nd ingredient which isn't my preference but I would still use it as I don't like to waste products. 

Packaging, Scent and Texture

Nature Republic Aloe Vera 92% Soothing Gel Mist comes in a 150ml green plastic bottle. It has a strong alcohol scent with a sturdy mist dispenser that dispenses the mist well. 

How To Use :
After cleansing or whenever your skin feels dry, close your eyes and spray over face from a 10-15cm distance.

Performance and Ingredients

Light and refreshing, Nature Republic Aloe Vera 92% Soothing Gel Mist keeps your skin looking rejuvenated with its 92% Aloe Vera content. Handy spray bottle makes it easy to keep in the handbag all day for a quick skin pick-me-up anywhere. 

I like how I can just depress the mist halfway and the mist would be dispensed on skin without being drenched. There is no need to press hard on the dispenser at all. 

Unfortunately, other than being light and refreshing, I don't see much benefits to it. Due to the high alcohol content, the mist evaporates pretty quickly so some users may like it. I tried using it as a lotion mask where I spray them on cotton pads and layered all over skin but it failed to provide much hydration to my skin. 

The alcohol scent was also too strong for me to really like the product. Adding on, having it in the 2nd ingredient meant that the concentration is high and that there may be a tendency to dry out the skin with long term use.

Conclusion

To conclude, Nature Republic Aloe Vera 92% Soothing Gel Mist won't be a repurchase due to the high alcohol content and its scent on the skin is not welcomed in my books. That said, the reviews for the product online were pretty good so while I don't like the product, there are many others who do.
