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.

I have used Native deodorant on and off for about 2 years. I really love the options for scents and the simplistic packaging. I have only ever used their plastic containers, but I am glad they offer paper containers as well. Because Native is a deodorant and not an antiperspirant, it works to mask scents instead of prevent sweat. This can work for some people that naturally sweat less, but it is no substitute for people with B.O. issues. The scents also tend to be milder than what other typical deodorants use. That can be a positive if you don't like chemically fragrances, but it also reduces the ability to hide scents. I think Native deodorant can be the right product for some people, and it is a great way to reduce plastic waste. However, it does not work well for everyone and should be used on a trial basis.
I have been using native cucumber deodorant for over a year now. I love their sustainable packaging and ingredients as well as new and creative fragrances.

Loved it for a while but had to come to the realization that I was just still so stinky only a few hours of application.
I have bought multiple body washes, and not only do they smell amazing, I feel nice and clean after using them!
Bought Native body wash after my first spray tan, minimal and natural ingredients make it a choice recommended by Estheticians. Good value for money, good lather and a healthy clean. Wish there were more scents.
Medically, I have to stay away from aluminum and I sweat a lot so I need a deodorant that works. Native is one of my favorite brands, especially the coconut and vanilla, eucalyptus and mint, and lavender and rose scents.
Love this brands clean approach to skincare/ wellness products. I love their un scented body wash and their in scented deodorant.
I love this deodorant! I love the ingredients in this product and it works well against any odors and keeps me dry!
I love the idea of bringing cleaner deodorant options to market, especially in larger chain stores! However, this product did not have much "staying" power for me compared to other natural deodorant alternatives. Their body wash is nice, however!

Just okay
I love the unique scents, especially the ginseng one. I get especially excited for the holiday scents. However, the scents do not last all day and tend to mask rather than prevent. This is not always bad, but it is worth keeping in mind if you were hoping for a stronger, more protective deodorant.
Its alright, it leaves a white cast and kind of pills under your arms
Good deodorant, sometimes wears off
This was quite crumbly when I applied it, and it’s scent didn’t last long.
I really wanted to like this more than I did. I purchased a few different scents from Target and had a custom scent made via the Native website. It goes on wetter than a normal stick deodorant and doesn't dry quite like I'm used to. It worked well for a while and I could tell it was starting to work less well, so I stopped using it.

have tried a few times and the scents are nice, but don't feel they are long lasting
Native body wash is a refreshing and natural choice. The subtle scents are pleasant without being overpowering, and it lathers well, leaving your skin feeling clean and moisturized. Knowing that it's free from harmful chemicals makes it a go-to for those seeking a more eco-friendly and skin-friendly shower experience. Native body wash offers quality and peace of mind in one bottle.

This is my favorite brand of deodorant. It is on the pricey side but so worth it. The ingredients are so pure, there is no harmful aluminum, it lasts long, and the scents are amazing.
This is the only deodorant I use now. My husband stole mine, so it's the only deodorant he uses too. Clean, aluminum-free ingredients matter a lot to me and the scents are subtle and lovely. I have chemical sensitivities and normally can't handle anything with fragrance, but I can do Native. Extra props for the musky, masculine scents that make me feel like I'm wrapped up in nature!
I love the idea of this deodorant, but it just sometimes didn’t hold up to hot summers or super active workouts. I like the scent options, but found myself reapplying throughout the day.
