Native reviews and discussion

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 love the scents and it lasts for the entire day.

    Feedback

    They are a bit pricey, but worth it overall.

  • Love the product , but a bit expensive.

  • I really like this deodorant. Its simple and clean. It does leave a white residue but it’s easy to get rid of. Certain scents don’t really leave a fresh scent all day but I think that’s just trial and error until you find one that works.

    The packaging

  • Listen maybe this deodorant or natrual ones are just not my thing,but i detoxed my armpits and i still smelt bad after one hour of use and i don't even sweat. Not even while working out. It smelt good but all in all i switched back to secret

    Feedback

    I have no clue ,but this is very expensive for not working

  • I love native, this past year I’ve prioritized clean and ethical brands. The smells are always on point and I love that I’m not putting toxins on my body.

    Feedback

    It leaves little streak marks sometimes which is not the cutest

  • Absolutely loved the smell but I broke out in a rash when I used it. I thought maybe my body would get used to it but the rash, burning, and itching didn’t go away so I had to stop using it.

    Finding a better formula that is more sensitive to skin

  • I love their deodorant! I use the cucumber mint and it has me smelling fresh all day!

    Feedback

    I get this product I. Their plastic-free packaging but honestly the price is a bit steep. I would love this product even more if it was a bit more affordable.

  • I like this product. Smells good, the stick holds up, but I'm an extremely sweaty person, and I dont know that this does anything for me on a hot summer day. Winter time deodorant, sure.

  • Fragrance is nice, packaging is simple, but the deodorizing function lacks. This has to be re applied several times through out the day, maybe more if you’re a sweater.

    The strength

  • The scents they offer set them apart from other deodorant brands in my option.

    Feedback

    Like more natural deodorant brands one might argue this might not work as well

  • Natural and effective! Amazing scents too.

    Feedback

    Pricing: wish it was a bit cheaper.

  • I’m gonna be honest it took literally months for my body to adapt to natural deodorant but now I’m hooked. I love the scents, love that it washes off easily and doesn’t leave behind the gross residue that normal deodorant leaves on your skin, and I actually sweat less now that I’ve been using this for over a year.

    Feedback

    The plastic free packaging option for the deodorant is a tad flimsy and definitely DO NOT get it wet because it will fall apart but I guess that’s to be expected with paper packaging.

  • Love love love this! They make a plastic free packaging version now and it's my go to!

  • This didn’t work for me but I liked the scent and idea. I had more odor than normal.

    Feedback

    I’m not sure if it can be improved for a natural deodorant. I haven’t had any luck with any of them.

  • Love it. Smells great and had no effects on my body.

    Feedback

    I did not see any small travel sizes, would be great.

  • I have psoriasis on my underarms and this has been the only deodorant that has worked for me! The scents aren’t overwhelming. Always leaves me feeling super refreshed!

    Feedback

    It does tend to clump up which I can’t stand and I do find that I still find myself to get smelly throughout the day. But I just reapply.

  • Started using this product years ago as I only use natural, aluminum free deodorant. Compared to other brands, this product is hydrating, has a wide range of scents, and is reasonably priced.

    Feedback

    Deodorant can always improve wear time.

  • I like the brand a lot and how the deodorant works on your skin. Plus makes me feel good to use healthy and clean ingredients.

    Feedback

    Would be nice if there was a spray option as well.

  • I love this brand, they have so many different scents, I buy almost all of them, I can’t help myself, and they are always coming out with seasonal scents which is exciting. Switching over to non aluminum deodorant was difficult, but I do think it is worth it! It doesn’t completely block out sweat it just stops it from smelling. It doesn’t quite last all day for all the scents, but it does last most of the day! The one I find works the best is the grapefruit and bergamot, I love it!

    Feedback

    I wish it lasted a little bit longer for some scents!
