Native reviews and discussion

I wanted to find an alternative deodorant with less chemicals, I figured this would be a great start. The smell was kind of pleasant and it applies smoothly. However it made my underarms swell after a couple hours. Not sure which ingredient caused this, but it was immediately a no for me. I can’t risk my health trying to be healthy lol. Hopefully it works for someone else but it’s a no for me.

It's pretty effective for a natural deodorant, but like most other natural deodorants, I feel like I need to reapply. Love that they've come out with recyclable packaging. Some of their scents are better than others, but the Coconut Vanilla is a winner for me.

I have used two different deodorants and body washes. Overall, love the smell of all of the products and have been good for my eczema prone skin.

I recently started using Native's body wash and I am in love! It convinced me to switch from the body wash i've been using for almost a decade. I tried the White Tea & Lilac scent, which smells great, and leaves my sensitive skin feeling clean, smooth and hydrated.

Great customer service, love the low-waste mission

I used the native coconut and vanilla deodorant for a while and I like that it's a clean product. It's not antiperspirant so I did feel like I sweat too much for the product to really work for me.

The deodorant works certainly, but it can be really hard and difficult to apply. The body wash line is great! Very sudsy (with loofah!). It leaves my skin soft and smooth. The scents are great and the bottles seem to last forever.

The smells are amazing and it glides nicely

I tired Native after running out of Corpus while traveling, it was nowhere to be found in a 500 mile radius. It works well for an accessibly priced deodorant that's natural/aluminum-free. Not in love with drugstore quality fragrances but it did the job.

I am a casual user of Native- use it probably about 1/2 time, and honestly I only use deodorant like MAYBE a few times a week. My thought is that this one works pretty well for a natural deodorant, it has a good texture and great fragrances. Love their mission and their growth- as a not particularly sweaty or stinky person- this definitely makes the cut for use. If you buy online you can get a plastic free version which is super unique- I wish they would sell this in store too! Their mini ones are also great and super cute- good for a gym bag, purse or in your work desk!

I absolutely love the body wash, every scent is amazing. I have mixed reviews about the deodorant, on occasion I feel like it gives me a little irritation. But I do have to say the smell is lovely and seems to help keep me dry.

I really wanted to love Native's deodorant because I appreciate the clean ingredients and eco-conscious approach. Unfortunately, after a few days of use, I developed redness and a burning sensation under my arms. I later found out this is a common reaction to the baking soda in the formula. It's disappointing because it smells great and goes on smoothly, but my skin just couldn’t tolerate it. If you have sensitive skin, I’d recommend trying their baking soda–free version instead.

Love the scents and scent options but very disappointed in the effectiveness of the deodorant itself. Tried a few scents to see if the issue was with a particular one but nope, none worked for all day wear. Had to reapply a few times throughout the day which with Schmidt's and Little Seed Farm, I don't. This one is a pass for me.

I can't use deodorant with aluminum in it and before discovering native none of the natural offerings worked very well. This works as well as if not better than conventional deodorant.

I recently tried Native's Lavender & Rose deodorant, and I must say, it exceeded my expectations! The natural lavender scent is soothing and refreshing, without being too overpowering. It's the perfect balance of floral and clean. One of the things I love most about this deodorant is that it's free of aluminum, parabens, and harsh chemicals, which makes it feel much gentler on my skin compared to other brands. In terms of effectiveness, Native has done a great job. It kept me feeling fresh throughout the day, even during some light exercise. While it might not hold up as well during intense workouts, for everyday use, it's reliable. The smooth, creamy texture glides on effortlessly and leaves no sticky residue. If you're looking for a clean, natural deodorant with a calming fragrance, Native’s Lavender & Rose is definitely worth trying!

I use their toothpaste and deodorant and really like it. I have been through many tubes already!

Smells nice but just, doesn't work at all. I might as well be putting perfume in my pits. And so expensive for something that doesn't address BO / sweat at all!

While the deodorants in this brand line have fun different scent profiles I will say that they don’t do a great job actually combatting my BO. It also cakes up a lot even when you use only a little and makes your shirts dirty/gummy.

Just tried Native deodorant, and I’m in love! Made with natural ingredients, it's gentle on the skin and provides all-day freshness. Plus, the scents are divine! If you’re looking to switch to a clean, effective deodorant, Native is a total game-changer.

The thought of a “natural” deodorant really appeals to me because I am concerned about the cancer-causing ingredients in aluminum containing deodorant. The scent options for native are amazing but unfortunately this product made me smell worse than wearing no deodorant at all. I have to stick to the unnatural stuff for now.
