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 love Native. I use their shampoo and conditioner, and there’s not a scent I’ve tried yet that isn’t amazing. It makes my hair incredibly soft with little ingredients.
I gave Native skin care products a shot, and here's my take: Their aluminum-free deodorant sounded promising, but in practice, it fell a bit short. There was a slight odor issue when it mixed with sweat, and it's worth noting it doesn't stop you from sweating since it's not an anti-perspirant. On the bright side, their body wash is a winner! It has a light texture and a subtle aroma, not overwhelming at all. So, mixed results, but the body wash is a keeper.
Good
Beyond the fact the brand doesn’t work anymore, complete and total shill sell out of a company, and highly over priced compared to other natural options.. their woke agenda completely lost me as a customer.
Switched the natural deodorant in 2018, tried many brands. Native was one that I was hoping would be a winner, but like most irritated my armpits with a hive-like raised painful area of tissue where Native was applied. I no longer use this product.

I've tried a bunch of allegedly clean deodorants, and Native is definitely the best! It's effective and doesn't get white marks on clothing.
Great scents, and so happy they have a plastic free deodorant option.
My only issue with Native is the cost! Otherwise I love their products.

Nice clean brand. Not a fan of the deodorant though. I do like the body and hair products though and I want to try the skincare.
It is very hard for me to find deodorants that don't make me break out into a rash. The Native deodorant that I see at my local stores including Publix, Target, and Walmart does not carry any kind of sensitive deodorant for Native. I have looked on their website and they do have sensitive deodorant but it is not at all accessible to find in your local grocery store and it is not included in their mini sizes as well. I gave one of the normal ones I had bought that made me break out to my sister and it didn't make her break out but it did clump up under her armpits rather than lather smoothly. Overall pretty disappointed with the product.
Love the brand and their mission. I'm so particular about my deodorant and love the scents. Also love the toothpaste! So many cleaner toothpastes don't work well and this is the real deal!
native has always been a go to & will continue to be a go to in my household :)
I really enjoyed native deodorant, however on a extremely hot day it doesn’t have enough power to control BO for me, but on a normal day it’s great!
I didn’t love this product. I like the smells they offer and that it’s all natural, but I didn’t find that it worked on me
Smell really good and they are clean
I believe their tag line is “smell like Jesus” and you can only imagine what he smelled like. Sad their deodorant didn’t work for me and their body soap is just okay, not worth the money
The first time I bought this my hubby was skeptical, but he is a lifer now! We love the coconut smell and have it in everything!
This was the second or third aluminum free deodorant I tried. I love how the variety of scents and packaging. The efficacy is off though… by the end of the day I was smelling me instead of the deodorant scent. I’ve tried several aluminum free since and have had better luck but still not the perfect fit for my busy, active lifestyle!
Absolutely every single time I try this deodorant I end up with a horrible horrible rash. They also do not smell very good.
so much better now that they updated the packaging.
