Native reviews and discussion

It works and I LOVE the scents. The scents are ALL really nice without smelling super fake/artificial and heavy. My favorite is the Vanilla & Sandalwood and I love how they make some scents for sensitive skin. You wouldn't think of your armpits as having sensitive skin but the skin there can be! A selling point was that they do NOT test on animals and use parabens, aluminum, etc.

I wanted to love it - I like the simple branding and the fact that it’s “better” for you than traditional deodorant. The scents are just okay - they lean more toward kitschy candle than soft & natural. The biggest issue I had with it was the lasting power - it just wasn’t there. I have a fairly sedentary job and I still felt like it wore off about halfway through my day.

Love the scents and light/ gentle feel.

I absolutely love native deodorant! I’ve had so much trouble finding a natural deodorant that actually works for me but native is amazing and never fails to stay strong throughout the day.

I really like native. I’ve tried their body wash and the deodorant. I’m a fan of the body wash, although I will say it’s veryyyy fragranced. I really enjoyed the deo, it worked great and I thought the smells were nice. I just wish they made a clear deo

I've used natural deodorant for over a decade and, thus far, Native is my favorite brand. I love their plastic-free packaging and fragrances. Also, the fact that they have a scent-free version for people with sensitive skin is lovely.

While the product smells great and does the job of a deodorant, it's unfortunately staining my lighter color shirts (white, baby blue etc.) a brownish/yellowish color in the armpit area. I haven't had this problem with other natural deodorants and because the white color is very visable on darker colored shirts, I have stopped purchasing from Native. But if that doesn't bother you and you enjoy their wonderful scents and products that do the job you expect from them, then you would like their product.

I love the scents of native. My favourite are the charcoal and the sweet peach and nectar. They work for maybe 2 hours at most on me. I find that I have to keep reapplying numerous times a day to keep me fresh smelling.

I have purchased and tested the sensitive deodorant in various scents as well as Native’s shower gels. I love all the exciting smells and the overall texture of the deodorant which, in my opinion is thinner than some other similar brands (only comparing to this kind of texture). Overall, I think they are creative and do the job well. My only complaint is the lasting, I find myself needed to renew after 7 hours or so.

I LOVE Native deodorants. It takes a couple days for your skin to get used to the active ingredients in it (mild rash/irritation) but trust me it's WORTH IT. I started it in 2020 when I wanted to get away from aluminum deodorants and finally had the opportunity to detox without anyone to smell it (except my roommates, sorry guys!) and I've been using it ever since. It's perfect. The scents are amazing, especially the limited editions. They've been through the ringer and it's the best natural deo on the market. Can't say enough good things about it!

It had a good texture and love the idea behind the brand but it just covered odor and not very well by the end of the day. Great smells though!

Scents were nice but didn’t last

A roommate of mine had the White Lilac body wash and I would ask her to sniff it because it smelt heavenly. I finally bought it this week and I couldn’t be happier.

I’ve tried Native a few times, but have never had a great experience with their deodorant. It doesn’t last long and it’s expensive.

Good body washes and deodorants, but slightly overpriced.

Absolutely love native products. As someone with sensitive skin I always look for products that won’t irritate my skin but also have good quality ingredients. Native delivers every time!

I use Native regularly. It works for a day at home or in the office. During workouts, I find it wears out quickly.

I love Native's body wash. All the scents are subtle, but leave me feeling really clean. It also leaves just enough of a scent that it is noticeable. The soap is very reasonably priced. The bottle I had lasted me awhile and that's with using it every day.

I had a lot of irritation right after shaving and it felt super cakey. I really wanted to love this product because of the smells, but caused a lot of irritation and also insane yellow stains on white or lite colored shirts.

I like that the brand is trying to be sustainable, but they are not sustainable enough. I use their cardboard deodorant and bought it because of the sustainable packaging, but I have recently stopped buying their products because they started packaging in plastic materials (shampoo, conditioner, some deodorants).
