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.

Tried multiple clean deodorants and this was the only one that did not cause a rash. This is now my preferred deodorant. Great scents and works well. Note, if switching to clean/natural deodorants, there is an adjustment period so give the product time so you can fully enjoy the benefits.
I love the minimal packaging and the smell is amazing.

Love the mission but the product doesn't do what it is supposed to do.
The best natural deodorant I’ve tried in regards to preventing odor. Lots of great scents.
Feedback
Now that they sell at Walmart, I’m nervous the quality will go down. Does come off on dark clothes and leave marks.
Works well. A little grainy. Scents are a little intense.

More eco-friendly packaging. Plastic sucks!
This deodorant is definitely a great option for people who have sensitive skin or are looking for a sustainable option. It did not irritate my skin at all and it smelled really great (the powder and cotton is my favorite). I have no complaints about the deodorant! My only comment is how pricy it is, and I was able to find other comparable brands for a cheaper price.
I have sensitive skin, so finding deodorants that not only work to eliminate odor, but also don’t irritate my skin has been hard. However, with Native, my armpits have stayed fresh and feeling great!

I have become a big fan of Native. Their scents are fantastic. It's true, it is quite pricy for a single stick but they seem to last forever. One flaw is that it does leave residue on my t-shirts. I recently learned that I may actually be using too much which may be causing this.
Feedback
I wish some of the temporary scents were available all of the time.

Really works. All the scents I've tried smell amazing - vanilla especially. Long coverage- big fan.

Several months back, I bought two plastic free deodorants (Lilac & White Tea for me, Charcoal for my husband) along with their shampoo. The shampoo was great (I don't expect much from shampoos in general, but this one made my hair/scalp feel squeaky clean and smelled good), but the deodorant didn't sweep me off my feet. It felt great using something that was plastic-free, but the product itself wasn't so effective. I used this nearly everyday during the summer, but sweat through anyway (and I promise I don't even sweat a lot!). So you can find me looking for a sustainable deodorant that does its job well!

I love my Native deo sticks. After making the switch to non-aluminum, Native has been my go to. Love their scents.

Definitely the best natural deodorant I've used. I recommend the coconut vanilla and the cucumber mint scents, but not the cotton one (that one barely has a smell). I like that you can now find this at CVS, Walgreens and other stores. It's not an anti-perspirant, so if that's what you're looking for, you should look elsewhere.
Didn't love the smell, doesn't serve the purpose, and dry, uncomfortable application. After reading publications saying the hype of natural deodorant is primarily fabricated, I was relieved to return to my Dove clinical strength. Maybe not natural, but goes on smooth, keeps me dry and smelling fresh through the sweatiest of workouts and longest of days.
I love my Native body wash. It is coconut vanilla scented and smells amazing. I typically get the big bottle and it lasts forever. It is gentle but effective for my sensitive and dry skin. Would definitely recommend to a friend!
I absolutely love native! Their selection of smells is fantastic and I can always find a new favorite scent!!! The packaging is very nice and obviously easy to use. The feel of theses are also fantastic!
Loved my Native Deodorant! I am a big fan of the cucumber and mint stick, not sure if they still make this scent. It keeps me smelling fresh and usually not the covered-up-stink smell that some natural deodorants create. I appreciate that it’s aluminum free and has clean ingredients and especially love the plastic-free packaging! I had a regular size and a mini, it’s great to have the option for on the go and I felt the mini stick fit under my arm more easily too. I wish Native had more options that have completely natural essential oil fragrances, as I had to stop using this when I lived in a fragrance-free household. Even so, I am sensitive to very chemical-y fragrances, and found Native’s to be mild and not make me sick. Would buy again.
I've used this product many times, and every time I'm disappointed. I know it's not an antiperspirant but a deodorant. Although I don't sweat much, the smell when using this product is worse than if I didn't use it at all. Native itself smells delicious, but when it mixes with sweat, it becomes very unpleasant. The truth is, I love what it offers, its natural formulas, but I wouldn't buy it again.
Native feels to be a smell forward brand, while they claim to have clean ingredients, doing a collab with Jarritos and Crumbl cookies seems to be the complete opposite of what you would want to promote? The marks they leave are also more intense than any I’ve ever experienced.
Love native! It’s so hard to find any deodorants that don’t irritate skin but native has not failed me yet!
The coconut deodorant is amazing, works great and it is super natural. I had the carry on version is super small and cute but also lasts a while!
Great all purpose product that does its job! I love a natural and more healthy option when it comes to deodorants and it's nice that this is available at my local supermarket so I can pick it up whenever.
