Reviews mention

  • Sophisticated, natural-leaning fragrances
  • Clean, cruelty-free formulations
  • Comfortable, smooth application
  • Non-stripping, lathery body washes
  • Inconsistent odor protection
  • White residue and staining
  • Gritty, sticky deodorant texture
  • Can cause underarm irritation

Native earns praise in reviews for clean ingredients, refined scents (Coconut & Vanilla, Eucalyptus & Mint, Lilac & White Tea) and comfortable, non-irritating wear for many, but effectiveness is inconsistent: several reviewers report odor breakthrough, frequent reapplication, staining, and texture issues. Reviews note body wash and haircare smell fresh and lather well, while deodorant can underperform in heat or workouts and sometimes causes rashes or gritty residue.

  • 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!

  • Great bath and skincare line. Lotions, shower gel and deodorant are top of the line but at drugstore prices.

  • Love the body wash!! Don't love the deodorant. I know it works for some people, but not for others. I didn't like a scent of body wash I purchased and they were happy to send me a different scent - great customer service.

  • Great clean products for deoderant and body wash! Smells great too.

  • I tried the vanilla coconut deodorant. While I loved the scent, I felt like I wasn't wearing deodorant at all.

  • I tried the gummy bear shampoo and it worked well! The packaging is great and the smell wasn’t too overpowering. Looking forward to trying body wash next.

  • I love the variety of scents that this brand offers in everything. Their minimalistic packaging makes their products fun to use as well. I used their deodorant and found that it worked well, but, in my opinion, it wasn’t anything out of the ordinary.

  • I love the Native body washes, they are my go to and I always bring a travel size when I travel as well. They foam up great and feel more luxurious and moisturizing on my skin than just an everyday bodywash. I also like their natural deodorants, but the product composition always leaves a white cast on my clothes and on my underarm area no matter how careful I am in applying and putting my clothes on. For that reason I have switched to another brand of natural deodorant, but I found that it worked great otherwise.

  • love their shampoo and conditioner, really great for my hair health. I want to love the deodorant but I haven't liked it so far. Will probable try it again.

  • Native is an interesting brand that tries it's best to really make a healthy and 'effective' product for your skin; it's that effective part that is a little lacking though as you need to reapply several times a day (after washing of course) to truly feel fresh. I guess that's not a bad thing, but stress sweat sure does stink and this does not help with stress sweat at all. The product is also well above normal brands which there is nothing special in it that should ever make it this expensive. Maybe they'll do better with more exposure? Let's hope so.

  • Native deodorant has been a game-changer for me. The natural ingredients provide long-lasting freshness without any irritation. I love the diverse range of scents, and the smooth application ensures all-day confidence. Finally, a deodorant that aligns with my lifestyle and keeps me feeling and smelling great!
