Reviews mention

  • Sophisticated, natural-leaning fragrances
  • Clean, cruelty-free formulations
  • Comfortable, smooth application
  • Non-stripping, lathery body washes
  • Inconsistent odor protection
  • White residue and staining
  • Gritty, sticky deodorant texture
  • Can cause underarm irritation

Native earns praise in reviews for clean ingredients, refined scents (Coconut & Vanilla, Eucalyptus & Mint, Lilac & White Tea) and comfortable, non-irritating wear for many, but effectiveness is inconsistent: several reviewers report odor breakthrough, frequent reapplication, staining, and texture issues. Reviews note body wash and haircare smell fresh and lather well, while deodorant can underperform in heat or workouts and sometimes causes rashes or gritty residue.

  • I’m a big fan of the brand, tried most products of different scents and details and will continue using brand and products, until I run out and buy more.

  • He comprado el desodorante de Native en tres ocasiones, dándole más de una oportunidad. El aroma es muy agradable, pero lamentablemente he notado que deja manchas y grumitos en mis camisas. Además, en ocasiones puntuales, me ha causado alergias. Inicialmente, lograba neutralizar el olor, pero después dejó de hacerlo.

  • Lovely deodorant with great smells that keeps you from smelling gross without all the gross stuff!

  • It smells really good. It doesn’t irritate my sensitive armpits. I also like the fact it’s affordable too.

  • Best natural deodorant I’ve used. Not always effective and I don’t like several of the smells, but since you can buy samples/small sizes you can experiment a bit to see which you like best. Would definitely buy again.

  • I'm loving the coconut shampoo. It smells amazing, it's light and has clean ingredients. I ended up buying the travel-sized deodorant. I'd be open to trying more products from the brand.

  • This product has elevated my personal routine on a whole other level! I am a big fan of their body wash and shampoo, which keeps my skin/hair smooth and smelling good! I would recommend this to anyone looking to try a more sustainable brand that helps them feel good about what they’re buying!

  • Personally have been using the coconut vanilla (both stick and spray) deo for a year now and I absolutely love it. I am thankful I can feel good about what I’m putting on my body and knowing it’ll help fight off odor and make me smell amazing!

  • The only deodorant I use now. The smells aren’t in your face and the product does what it is supposed to—I don’t sweat horribly. I’m not entirely sure it fully protects staining white shirts (no aluminum) but it seems to do a better job than most deodorant. Highly recommend, especially if you are wary of extra ingredients or have sensitive skin.

  • Coconut vanilla deodorant is a go to, minus the white residue it can leave later. But it’s not as intense so dove or degree white residue

  • The body washes are great: not heavily scented, lather fairly well, and leave skin feeling clean. Body lotion is very light and feels great on the skin. Deodorants (what they’re known for) are great in my opinion. The scent lasts at least 12 hours and each stick lasted me 10-12 months with daily usage. These are only deodorants and NON antiperspirants so take that into account before purchasing.

  • Initially smells good. End up smelling terrible by the end of the day, almost even worse than if you didn’t wear deodorant because of how the product mixes with your skin (if you wear it alone). It also causes rashing and itching if you apply it after shaving. I gave it two stars because sometimes I apply it over my other deodorant to get the added nice smell it initially has.

  • I enjoy their body washes. They smell great and really lather up so you don’t have to use a lot.

  • I use native shampoo and conditioner. Native deodorant, and native face serum along with their facial sunscreen. I absolutely love this brand and the great thing I leaned is that many of their products lack harsh chemicals that other expensive brands contain. Absolutely love Native brand and their products.

  • Love the packaging, simple ingredients, etc. I do find that I have to be careful with the scents - while some (cupcake, for example) smell amazing in the bottle/stick, they don't jive well over the course of a day and end up making body odor worse. The "fresh" scents (eucalyptus + mint) are my go-to.

  • Great scents! I love the shampoo and conditioner but the deodorant doesn’t last very long.

  • Love the deodorant, body wash, shampoo! Seasonal scents are to die for. Deodorant lasts a long time.

  • I love the assortment of fun scents. The cute sample sized deodorants make good stocking stuffers or goody bag fillers and are a nice way to enjoy a variety of the scents. Everyone in the family loves the plastic-free packaging but we do wish it would be on more of the varieties.
