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.

Pros; easily dispensable product, great scents, eco friendly packaging (recycled plastic & paper), and the ingredients are free of harmful chemicals. I did feel like this product went on smoothly and also settled nicely, which I feel is hard to find with natural products like Native because they don't dry down and are left feeling sticky. Cons; this product makes me smell worse after continued use! I feel like the first week was great, and then after it starts to make my BO smell worse.
Feedback
I think a re-formulation would be helpful to fix whatever is going on with the reactions in this product. The scents are lovely but that doesn't really matter if you start smelling funky when you use it!

I’m a super sweater and the formula from Native was just not strong enough to contain my body odor! Super cute packaging and lightweight on the skin but overall doesn’t get the job done for someone like me.
Feedback
Formula needs some work.

Native is my go to brand for deodorant and body wash! I use the coconut & vanilla deodorant on a daily basis, which has a long-lasting scent. I also buy the mini versions to take with me in my handbags/workbags- they are the perfect size and cheap enough that I have one for each of my bags. The body wash is also fantastic- I use the subscription from the website so I save a couple bucks and I get a new bottle delivered once a month!
Feedback
Wish more scents were available in store- a lot of the fun/limited edition options sound wonderful but I can only find them online and would love to be able to buy them in person/not have to pay shipping.

My son at about the age of 5 started to have body odor. I didn’t want to use the regular deodorant from the store because of all the added chemicals so I searched for something more natural. I found Native before it actually started being sold in the stores locally and decided to try for him. I bought the lavender rose for myself and the eucalyptus mint for him. Although it smelled good it did not cover the scent he would get unfortunately. It actually seemed to create a different small altogether that was not pleasant. I know everyone’s body chemistry is different but I did not purchase again.

LOVE this brand, what they stand for and their products. The deodorant works wonders for me and leaves me feeling smelling nice and refreshed.
Feedback
Having the deodorant a bit smoother, I feel like its too rough on my armpit sometimes.

I have tried both the deodorant and the shampoo/conditioner. Im in love! The deodorant ive used for years now and refuse to switch to any other brand. It completely eliminated all odors, even when i go a few days without using it! I love how natural it is as well.
Feedback
I think improvement wise it would be nice to see the company use more eco friendly packaging! Other then that i have zero complaints!

I think it’s a good deodorant for what it is. The scent is good and it glides in easily, doesn’t try out too quickly which is a problem that I’ve had with other natural deodorants. I would wear this on a hot day or if I was planning to work out/really sweat. Good for brisk weather or if Im wearing a shirt I don’t want to go get stained/ sweat marks on.

I didn't enjoy the texture of the product when it went on my armpits. It was quite grainy. In terms of lasting odor prevention, I did find myself smelling a bit ripe midway through the day. This would mean that I would have to reapply often. For an expensive product, having to reapply multiple times a day is a hassle and not cost-effective.
Feedback
The formula!

I love that the brand is all about natural products and clean ingredients however didn’t feel like this deodorant helped me control odor.

Needs more effectiveness to control/get rid of odor

I enjoy the scents and the product itself has pretty good staying power.
Feedback
It is pricey at $12.

During my use of this product for a year and a half, it worked quite well. Over the course of that timeframe I used the nonscented, charcoal, and cucumber & mint. Luckily I bought the three pack. The packaging is definitely fun. My chemical ph changes depending on the season, so I found the charcoal to worked best for me during the summer.
Feedback
I started off with the cucumber & mint, and liked the event, but because of my ph chemical balance stopped working almost immediately ~5 weeks . It gets into everything I wear, which I guess is fortunate in a way, but the cucumber & mint left me smelling funky by midday. I had to take wipes with me and reapply.

My favorite deodorant. The scents are great. It doesn't irritate my skin & it keeps me smelling great all day. The only deoterant I ever reach for.
Feedback
Sometimes I can't find the vanilla & sandalwood scent which is one of my favorites. Thanks it!

Applies easily after the first swipe warms up the product. No stinging and no stinking! I don't find the scent overpowering and no marks on my clothing either.
Feedback
Nothing, everything is great

I love the quality (only natural deodorant I've used that works) and the scents are all amazing.
Feedback
It's a bit spendy

It was a good product. Doesn’t have a strong scent but it’s strong enough to not smell bad.
Feedback
Only issue is has a lot of white residue and it stay in dark clothing. And to push up the bar it’s a bit hard to roll it up.

They all have a weird smell and they wouldn’t hold me through out my whole day. They are for sure not “natural” or for sensitive skin.
Feedback
The smell, the formula and marketing levels

The scents were beautiful but they didn’t mask any scent for me. There was a noticeable odor smell throughout the day.
Feedback
More odor protection

I used to have severe eczema and red/inflamed irritation in my armpits. No medicine any doctors gave me helped, and sweating or putting deodorant on burned and increased the pain tenfold. I switched to Native deodorant and not even a day later my rash that I had been struggling with for months was completely gone. I’ve been using this deodorant for almost a year and it has completely prevented my rash from appearing since. It still works really well to cover B.O. and it doesn’t feel sticky! LOVE LOVE LOVE I so recommend!!

It’s a lil expensive but so worth it
