Reviews mention

  • Refined, natural-leaning fragrances
  • Gentle, sensitive-skin formulas
  • Smooth, comfortable application
  • Attractive, sustainable packaging
  • Inconsistent odor protection longevity
  • White residue and shirt staining
  • Occasional gritty, sticky texture
  • Body wash sometimes feels drying

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.

  • Native's Body Wash and Deodorant are my new favorite personal hygiene products. Finding a high quality body wash and deodorant have been a priority of mine and I believe I have found it !

  • I really like the coconut vanilla deodorant, it doesn’t irritate my sensitive skin and I only have to reapply every 6 hours or so. That’s pretty impressive for a natural deodorant.

  • All of the products smell amazing but the deodorant doesn’t really work.

  • One of my favorite brands of deodorant works really well. Good for people with sensitivities.

  • Native body and face wash are requirement in my shower, they have the best smells and are sustainable. I have sensitive skin and Native does not irritate it at all. The deodorant isn't the best, at least not for me I sweat a lot and my long curly hair wishes it could be tamed by Native hair care but it is too finicky .

  • The scents are amazing. I love all of the seasonal scents and the girl scout flavors as well.

  • As a stinky girl™️ this stuff does NOT work. I fell for the marketing and cute scent combos but for the price it does absolutely NOTHING. It hardly even masks the scent. I'd rather have aluminum in my pits than smell all day...

  • Love the deodorants and like that they are aluminum free. I have sensitive skin and many brands of deodorant break me out in a rash but not Native.

  • Native Lavender & Rose deodorant is my daily defense against stinky pits. It's my go-to, and if you're pushing it hard at the gym, maybe a quick reapply, but hey, a small price for keeping it natural. Love the lavender scent.

  • I wanted to love this brand and tried so so so very hard. I purchased multiple scents and it all smelled decent but was hard to apply and the white rubbed off on things and it was chalky and didn’t work. There are much better all natural deodorants on the market or none at all.

  • The Native Hydrating Facial Wash is my favorite face wash, especially because I have super dry skin. After each use my face is left feeling hydrated and so so soft!!!!! 10/10 recommend and plus it’s super affordable!

  • I like the deodorants. It didn’t give me any allergies like other brands.

  • I have been using the Native body wash since 2 years now, it leaves the body clean and moisturized. Coconut and Vanilla scent is my absolute favorite, not too over powering yet smells good. And the packaging is simple and practical.

  • I had high hopes when I bought their deodorant. It had fun packaging, promoted sustainability, and smelt amazing. Originally, I thought it was worth the price tag. But after using it, there were no effects; in fact, I'm pretty sure I was sweating more than usual after using this product. And even the nice scent couldn't overpower the smell of BO. Maybe their other products are better, but the deodorant's a no-go for me.

  • BUY THIS DEODORANT. I cant even count how many i’ve used in the past but don’t do me any justice . I love the way it doesn’t smell strong .

  • I was pregnant and didn’t want to use an antiperspirant anymore so I was looking for something effective but natural. Native deodorant keeps you smelling great all day, and even keeps you dry! Not over drying but comfortable, goes on smoothly and their frequently updated scents all smell wonderful!
