Native earns praise for clean ingredients, standout scents (Coconut & Vanilla, Cucumber & Mint, Lilac & White Tea, Citrus & Herbal Musk) and comfortable, non-irritating wear for many, but reviews say performance is inconsistent: the deodorant often fades by midday, struggles in heat/workouts, can leave white residue or shirt stains, and some experience rashes or gritty texture. Reviews of body wash and hair care skew positive for gentle lather and pleasant aromas, though a few find body wash drying and shampoos underwhelming. Overall, Native is a good natural option if you don’t sweat heavily and will reapply; heavy sweaters may need stronger protection.

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.
Native Deodorant offers a natural, aluminum-free formula that effectively neutralizes odor without harsh chemicals. It’s available in a variety of scents, all of which are gentle and not overpowering. The deodorant glides on smoothly, providing all-day freshness while being gentle on the skin. With its clean ingredients and eco-friendly packaging, Native is a solid choice for those seeking a natural alternative to traditional deodorants. However, it may not provide the same level of sweat protection as some chemical-based options, so it’s best for those with lighter activity levels.
Native deodorant is a game-changer for anyone looking to ditch harsh chemicals without sacrificing effectiveness! It keeps me feeling fresh all day with its gentle, skin-loving formula that doesn’t irritate. I love the natural ingredients and the variety of subtle, amazing scents (coconut & vanilla is my fave!). Plus, it’s long-lasting and free of aluminum, so I feel good about using it daily. Highly recommend for a healthier, more natural approach to staying fresh! 💧✨
I appreciate that Native is making natural skincare products but the deodorant simply does not work. My armpits end up smelling after like 2 hours.
The deodorants have super great scents but they gave me a horrible rash! A great example of how just because something is "natural" it does not mean that it is not strong/irritating.
I enjoy using this product. I like that it is aluminum-free and that it does the job. It smells good and I primarily use this product in the winter.
Great deodorant, pricy though.
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.
I tried this brand before. And it worked well for smell coverage. And they have nice scents. But I still sweat through it.

It's been a mixed bag regarding my experiences with NATIVE. I would recommend with caution. Some of the products offered simply do not seem to work as well as competitors. For example, I tried out the Winter Mint toothpaste, since I love the idea of reducing unnecessary ingredients/options. However, it only proved the point that sometimes you need certain ingredients to feel as if the product worked. I wasn't fond of the feeling on my teeth after brushing normally, and my husband didn't either. The flavor was meh. The deodorants do work, but for a much shorter period of time than I'd prefer.
Love the scents in the native line!
I tested one of Native’s holiday scents. I was pretty disappointed- it didn’t have a great or strong scent to start, but by the end of the day you couldn’t smell anything but your own sweat. I do not recommend this brand at all. It’s great to ditch bad chemicals, but it’s not an affordable or effective brand!
love their products. eco friendly
Works good in the short run, but wears out quickly

I used to use native but then I realized that they still used fragrance (unnatural) in most of their deodorant, etc.. didn’t like I paid sooo much $ just to still end up with bad ingredients.
it is ok not best at keeping sweat at bay but nice scent
Price is ouch but it’s the only deodorant that doesn’t burn my underarms!

Body wash smells great!

Greats light scents that work really well to mask odor if I’m not sweating particularly much. I prefer it for cooler weather and swap to an antiperspirant during the sweaty months.

Can only vouch for Native's body wash, but it's good stuff! Clean, fresh, neutral smells + mega simple packaging. It's not trying to do too much, but does just enough.
