Native earns mixed-to-positive reviews: its deodorants and body washes smell exceptional and many users say they work for everyday wear, while others report short wear time, residue, and staining. Reviews praise clean-feeling formulas, sensitive-skin options, and standout scents like Coconut & Vanilla, Eucalyptus & Mint, and Citrus & Herbal Musk, but note inconsistent odor control in heat/workouts, occasional rashes or grit, and cardboard-packaging ergonomics.
AI summary based on Thingtesting reviews
I love my Native body wash. I have the coconut vanilla. I love the scent so much and I notice it after my showers. It makes my skin feel clean and moisturized. I like how it lathers in the shower and I love the natural ingredients.
I've really enjoyed how clean my hair has felt using Native shampoo. As a 40-something woman, I've been dealing with some excess oil iny hair and Native really seems to keep it in check.I would purchase this product again.
I like how gentle the shampoo is on my hair. It is not stripping or drying, and also smells nice. I like that it also contains clean ingredients and has so parabens or sulfates. I got the cucumber one and it smells really great.

I love their scents and I really like their minimal packaging. I love their body washes, they feel and smell so nice. But I don't like their deodorants, they do not work at all in my opinion and I don't even sweat that much
I love this brand because they make products that are good for your skin and without harsh ingredients I love using the shampoo, conditioner, body wash, and deodorant because they are clean and the scents are amazing
I really wanted to like Native — the scents are great, the branding is clean, and the idea of a natural deodorant is appealing. But unfortunately, it didn’t work for me. After a few days of use, I ended up with painful armpit irritation that felt like chemical burns. It turns out I’m not alone; it seems some people react to the baking soda or other ingredients in the formula. If you have sensitive skin, proceed with caution — this might not be the gentle option it’s marketed to be.

This is great deodorant. I have tried them all.
Love this deodorant. It keeps me dry and smelling good all day. And I absolutely love the eco-friendly cardboard packaging.
I have tried so many natural deodorants and I was hoping to find one that easy to grab instead of ordering online all the time so it sucked that this didn't work at all. No protection and really a waste of money.
Native makes effective, gentle deodorant that is great for everyday use. I like the scent options and ability to find their products in most stores. It applies well and doesn't seem to stain my shirts. It does not keep me from sweating, but helps keep the odor to a minimum.
I love the native deodorant! I have been using it for many years and its definitely a staple in my household.
After trying countless deodorants—natural and conventional—this is the only one I keep coming back to. I have a sensitive skin condition that often reacts badly to most products, but Native has been an absolute lifesaver. The scents are beautiful and subtle, never overpowering, but strong enough to last. I’ll never forget being on a packed, sweaty train and suddenly catching a whiff of something tropical… only to realize it was me wearing the vanilla coconut scent! While it may seem a bit pricey, the gentle, effective formula makes it more than worth it—especially for anyone with sensitive skin who still wants reliable protection.
Native deodorant has become my go-to for a natural, effective solution to staying fresh all day. What sets Native apart is their commitment to clean, simple ingredients that promote healthy skin without the harsh chemicals found in many conventional deodorants.
I've been using natural deodorant for my whole adult life and this stuff is just useless. I usually make my own mix, but I will try other brands every once in a while to see what's developed. This one wore off in like an hour and it's not worth the money.
I try to use more natural deodorant so I appreciate the Native products. It glides under my arm smoothly, does not leave residues and no skin irritation. The green tea black current smells amazing and it helps me to smell good all day. My only concern is that they seem to use artificial fragrances in their products even though they promote they are a natural brand. There are other more natural options that are cheaper than Native so I may not buy Native as often.
Tried to love native, but for me I need an antiperspirant and deodorant in one that really works well. I appreciate what they are trying to and maybe it works well for others who sweat less than I, but I needed to switch to something much stronger!
I am obsessed with all the native products because they are better for you and have easy to understand ingredients. I use the shower gel, deodorant, shampoo, and conditioner daily and I love the range of scents they offer.
Want to love but unfortunately doesn’t work as effectively for me. Love the gender neutral scents and seasonal ones too and environmentally friendly simple ingredients
I like the fact that they have different sizes and I have tried out their travel size. I love to have it in my bag. It just doesn’t last as long as any other deodorant I do like the concept, but I wish it was more long lasting.

Works pretty well except that it can clump. The plastic-free ones are my favorite and I like their fun holiday scents. Don't like that the brand is owned by Unilever (though it is good they have some sustainable options in their portfolio).
