Native reviews and discussion

This product smells great. However, if I sweat even a little bit it made me smell bad. This deodorant did not work for me.

I enjoyed some of the scents but left residue on clothing. Didn’t help with sweat.

The deodorant irritated my armpits.

Wanted to love these more but they just weren’t the best for my body. The only scent that seems to do its job for me is coconut vanilla. I have a mini in my purse at all times for when I need to reapply and it’s been a life saver!

Native was one of those brands that I really wanted to like. I love the packaging and the scents they offer for both their deodorants and shampoos. However, the products simply don't work. Deodorant: I tried the Charcoal scent and I liked how it smelled. The texture was much thicker than what I'm used to, but not unbearable. The issue is that it simply does not control your bo. I live in Florida and sweating is a given, even if you spend the whole day indoors. This deodorant doesn't even masks odor, it simply doesn't do anything other than stain your clothes. Shampoo: I tried the Eucalyptus and Mint 2 in 1 shampoo and it dried out my hair like crazy!!! It smelled really good and my scalp felt nice, but my hair looked terrible. I have curly hair, which is already prone to being dry, so this did me no favors. Maybe it works best if you have straight hair, but if you have curls, I would stay away from this.

The. Deodorant. Does. Not. Work. At. All. You may as well just put vaseline on your underarms. It'll deliver the same level of deodorizing - that is to say, not at all. I've used other natural deodorants before that have worked for an hour or two before letting up- but Native's is different. It literally just doesn't work at all. Cool packaging and mission though! Hence the 2 stars.

Love the natural products or at least the thought behind it. Seems to be of good quality but I prefer degree clinical strength or degree motion.

I have extremely sensitive pits and their sensitive line still managed to give me a rash unfortunately. I found the formula to be really dry yet oily at the same time? I like that they offer a large amount of interesting scents and I'm sure they transfer well to their other body products, but this one isn't for me.

I love Native scents. I've now tried both the bodywash and deodorant. I personally had a bad experience with the deodorant, but that has more to do with my own personal allergies than the brand. That said, if you are sensitive to natural deodorants, Native probably won't be for you. Regardless, the scents are amazing and the bodywash is great! I wish I could use them more.

I love this deodorant. It’s one of the only natural deodorants that work well. I doesn’t stop me from sweating but my sweat doesn’t smell. The scents are great. I’ve tried eucalyptus, lilac, and orange coconut. My only criticism is if I’m very active, such as hiking for a long ways, it does wear off. It’s best as a day to day deodorant.

Native is at the top of the list of products for cleansing & healthy skin. I also respect the fact that they don't have tons of additives like most other companies.

keeps my man smellin freeesh. $11 a bar is crazy tho kick me some manufacturer's coupons pls

I really wanted to love Native. I love their message in trying to keep everyday hygiene products from being cruelty free to fun and environmentally conscious. Their scent combos are more unique than the standard giant brands. For me though, the deodorants have either given me a rash or melts completely off me before it can really work. I tried their shampoo but it was one of the few that left my fine hair dry and stringy. I'm glad it works for others, I wish I could be one of them.

I love Native as a brand, but my love varies depending on the product. I’ve never had good luck with their deodorant, despite how cool their cardboard packaging is. Their bodycare products all smell amazing.

fav deodorant. they have the most interesting scents that pair really well layered with perfume. the citrus and herbal musk scent is 10/10. not sure it would be great for people prone to heavy sweating.

This product really didn't work for me. Maybe I'm too sweaty of a person, but this did absolutely nothing to prevent swear or odor.

When I decided to switch deodorants I didn't think I'd love Native so much! I believe I had the cucumber & mint scent and it lasted all day. It does take your body a little time to get used to.

Yummy smells. Best natural deodorant I’ve used and my kids love the body wash.

Love the deodorant-would give it 5+. It also comes in the smallest travel size I’ve ever seen. The body wash is great. The shampoo and conditioner are good-I have those in my guest bath, mostly for the packaging (aesthetics) and the scents.

I’ve been using Natuv body washes for about 8 months now. I love the variety of scents, most I share with the boyfriend. They don’t leave a filmy residue, and my skin doesn’t feel overly dry during the winter. I’ll keep trying their other products.
