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.

  • Although this deo had a refreshing scent, I found that the scent wore off almost immediately! Might try it again because Penn Badgley swears by this!!

  • This is my favorite body wash! The scents are perfect, not too strong but makes you bathroom smell amazing.

  • I tried out their roll-on deodorant (not the spray) and they are great! I love the fact that they are free of several harmful ingredients and do not make my underarms darker in color like others have in the past. The only thing that underperformed for me is how long it lasts once you apply it. I felt that I had to re-apply every 2-3 hours, and I am not someone who sweats much.

  • I'm highly sensitive to smell so I was extremely pleased to find Native's cucumber and mint body wash as it had clean ingredients and a light, refreshing smell. I purchased the produce twice without any issues but on my third bottle found the smell off-putting as it smelt like crayons. I've since switches to meyers bars..

  • I thought this deodorant was pretty good. I actually sweat a lot as a female and I’ve had a hard time finding a sword Kant that actually works and this one worked pretty well. I also feel my skin wasn’t irritated by this brand since my skin is sensitive. Overall I think it worked better than most brands.

  • I gave the Native deodorant a shot, enticed by its appealing scent and natural formula. The initial fragrance upon application was quite nice and left me feeling confident. However, the downside quickly became apparent – the deodorant's effectiveness didn't last. Within just a few hours, the pleasant scent faded, and I found myself needing to reapply frequently to maintain any semblance of freshness. This constant need for touch-ups proved to be inconvenient, especially during busy days. In short, Native deodorant starts with a pleasing scent, but its inability to provide long-lasting protection left me unsatisfied. I'll be on the lookout for a more reliable option that can deliver both fragrance and effectiveness.

  • It's my go-to deodorant brand for the past few years! I like the neutral scent options (some of the scents are too strong for me) and the mini-size is great for travel. I really appreciate they are aluminum-free too.

  • I wanted to like this but unfortunately after 1 day of using it I had the most gnarly rash /:

  • Clean ingredients. Doesn’t last very long. Some of the smells can be overpowering. I did find other natural deodorant brands to have work better for me.

  • I am currently obsessed with the Native body washes! great smelling scents while being gentle on my skin

  • I wish the packaging was sustainable and that they did not encourage the myths about aluminium. The product however is creamy and it smells amazing. Although it has little to no effect if you are very sweaty and or have hyperhydrosis

  • I'm a big fan of the shampoo and conditioner from native! Also the different scents they have all smell so good!

  • The Cucumber Mint Volumizing Conditioner gives my hair a thicker look when dry and styled. I love the soft mint scent! It is on the higher end pricing but it comes through with good results so I would recommend it.

  • I have very sensitive skin and native body wash exceeds my expectations, while still smelling amazing! Great product for any age!
